When ingredients are listed in 5 point type, who can read what actually is included in most prepared foods? You either like it or you don’t. Its unreadable ‘formula’ is a moot point.
Perhaps the vendor knows exactly what happened to Jimmy Hoffa. Hey I read “The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair and Upton implied that the occasional worker suddenly vanished at those Chicago meat packing plants back in the day, this fact definitely adds some mystery to the real composition of “mystery meat” such as hot dogs, Vienna sausage, potted meat and the meat varieties of Banquet frozen dinners. Caveat Emptor…..
People who rail against this stuff presuppose you don’t eat anything but! Like the idiot who ate fast food burgers everyday for a month and surprise, gained weight. This was supposed to be a surprise?
I predict that one day the hot dog will be hailed as healthy.Eating only muscle meat is poor nutrition. We need glands and connective tissue in our diet.And don’t mention salt. Healthy kidneys take all the extra salt out.
“Nutritional information: Don’t even ask. This is the best ice cream made in Wisconsin, and it tastes so good because it has gobs of rich Wisconsin cream, tons of real ingredients for boat-loads of luscious flavors. That means it’s not low-fat, low-calorie, or low-anything, and that’s why everyone loves it. You want nutrition, eat carrots.” —Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream (Madison, Wisconsin), product disclaimer
this cartoon makes me want to eat a couple hot dogs loaded with slaw and chili……. mmmmm good!!! in a split top hot dog bun, lightly buttered and toasted in the skillet before loading up with said hot dog and condiments….. breakfast of champions!

If I ate hot dogs every day, I might worry about what was in them.

I’ve read that every time you eat a hot dog it takes 6 minutes off your life.
Or I just made that up. One or the other.

I wonder if not eating would be worse than eating a street vendor hot dog?

The last thing we need is a lecture on nutrition from a hot dog vendor.

Perhaps, but sometimes a Chicago dog hits the spot. :)

It’s not wanting it that’s the means you don’t care.
It’s the buying and eating it that might show you don’t care.

The Ingredients List is “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and/or “You Don’t Wanna Know”.

Not really true. I have ended up ordering something different after reading nutrition info. I only throw caution to the wind on my birthday.

Better you should get one of those ultraprocessed plant-based fake meat sausages.

The more they don’t want to tell me, the more I want to know. Until I don’t.

Yes, even with the all beef hot dogs, you can only wonder what parts of the beef we’re talking about.

Man, that is really obnoxious enough. The advertiser has hit a chord with that statement, but qualifies the regulatory bodies.
