That's so incorrect it's ridiculous.

Quote:
Here is Hebrew National’s Beef Frank ingredient list:

Beef, Water, Contains 2% or Less of: Salt, Sodium Lactate, Spice, Hydrolyzed Soy Protein, Paprika, Sodium Diacetate, Garlic Powder, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrite, Flavorings.

And Oscar Mayer Beef Frank ingredient list:

Beef, Water, Contains Less than 2% of Salt, Corn Syrup, Dextrose, Sodium Lactate, Sodium Phosphates, Sodium Diacetate, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Extractives of Paprika, Dried Garlic, Spice, Sodium Nitrite.


They are nearly identical, and both contain Sodium Nitrite. Looking at the nutritional values they're almost identical in calories, and even worse, one single frank contains about 30% of the daily recommended sodium intake.

But if you feel the need to munch on a processed meat product product, chock full of chemicals, all the while pretending that it's a "quality product", by all means knock yourself out.



They may have the same ingredients,BUT,they are of much better quality. McDonalds hamburgers and ground sirloin burgers that you can make at home both have the exact same ingredient,beef,but the home prepared burger is leaps and bounds over the McDonalds burger in the quality of said ingredient.

Try Tony Packo's next time you are in Toledo.



Yes, I will most assuredly try a Packo's dog. I was going to go there last time I was in Toledo, but time didn't permit it. Maybe on the next trip!

Agree with Drew, especially roasted over a campfire.

Bamboooo, you've never been to Chicago, eh?

Mighty Dog on 31st St in Chicago (is it still there?) has great dogs. It is interesting to see much the rest of the country doesn't consider hot dogs nor sausage a main staple for lunch.
 
I have to give a shout out to Zweigle's in Rochester New York. Every time I'm back home to see my parents I always pick up a couple of packs for the freezer. I haven't found any other brand that has anything quite like their white hots: looks like a polish but with some veal and not as much spice.

For Chicagoland brands, yeah, I'll third Hebrew National and Nathan's.

Have you ever eaten at Hot Doug's?

That's the only one I eat from the mainstream hot dog manufacturers as it's the only one available without nitrates. The health food stores sell non-mainstream nitrate-free hot dogs that are quite good and have less salt than the Oscar Meyer ones.

And there are always the vegetarian hot dogs. Most are marginally passable but there are a couple of types that are pretty good.
