EWWW! Did you know HOT DOGS are made with lips, testes, eyeballs, etc?

[JuniorPlankton]

1. Also known as the offal tubes

[Submariner]

2. A Fenway Frank, beer, snickers, and popcorn

cover all the major food groups to sustain life as we know it. What's your problem?

[Gothic Sponge]

3. and people wonder why i'm a vegetarian.

[Days Between]

19. The arguments in favor of a veg diet

are endless.

GIANT feedlots ... if you eat their products, (hormones, gmo...), your brain gets fucked (along with your colon)

CONSCIOUS choice

[Gothic Sponge]

24. Very true!

Welcome to DU!

:hi:

[Kolesar]

25. Pinto beans with cilantro! Stir fried garden vegetables!

Hey, I even love Oatmeal w/ brown sugar.

[Kali]

34. there is choice in meat too, you know

local, humane, organic IS available. There are legit reasons to go veg (I guess) but giant feedlots is not an excuse. Lots of small farmers and ranchers out here trying to do the right thing....

[trotsky]

4. Parts is parts!

Mmmmmm... parts....

On edit: Environmentalists should be glad these parts get used for hotdogs - it means less of the animal is wasted!

[MidwestTransplant]

5. Buy Kosher ones

I think they have less eyeballs, etc.

[GiovanniC]

6. Mmmm... Laws and Sausages.

[aquart]

7. I didn't want to know.

May all your food taste like entrails from now on.

Even the veggies.

[CAcyclist]

31. mmmm - prairie oysters

[Doug Decker]

8. Once I found out that a certain amount of rat droppings...

are permitted, BY LAW, I haven't eaten one and don't even want to see anyone else eat one.

[UdoKier]

9. EWWW!

That work with turkey dogs too?

I eat a lot of the turkey ones...

[JVS]

15. That is the case with all food. Do you think that there are no vermin...

near grain silos, or near the machinery that makes peanut butter?

[Doug Decker]

27. Not all food... all processed food, breads, peanut butter...

sorry, don't eat it.

I eat fresh fruits and vegetables and meats. Are some contaminants on everything? Of course. It is ingrained in the law that we allow those contaminants? No, I don't think you show that to be true, but if you can, please, post away.

[Nikia]

40. We have a good pest control program

It is a necessary part of our standards which are required to pass a stringent industry standard audit which is required by a couple of our customers. The pest control program required for bakeries is even stricter since they have a greater risk. I don't know why these companies don't advertise the fact that they've met superior industry standards, probably in case they don't one year.

[Kali]

16. That happened to me about peanut butter

:puke:

also the insect quota

[Blue-Jay]

10. I'm picky about my hot dogs.

Only 100% pig anuses is good for me.

[Love Bug]

11. Yep! Everything but the squeak!

[Dogmudgeon]

12. Then you DON'T want to know what's allowed in vegetables

Our whole food production and processing "chain" is one giant toxin factory.

--bkl

[Days Between]

21. eat organic from local farmers markets

[Richardo]

13. The true question is: What *isn't* in hot dogs?

The world may never know.

[yellowcanine]

14. Who DIDN'T know that? What do you have against lips, etc.? Eat

chicken dogs, then. Chickens don't have lips.

[UdoKier]

17. So what do they do with the beaks?

Combs, etc...

[yellowcanine]

28. You don't want to know. Oh hell they put them in Pringles. (just kidding,

Pringles' lawyer)

[XNASA]

18. Not Vienna Hot Dogs.

Vienna Hot Dogs are made of beef brisket with no fillers.

It the only kind of hot dog that we eat in our house.

[madaboutharry]

20. Not the kosher ones

n/t

[redqueen]

22. And they're the best!

Hebrew National is my favorite kind. :9

[JVS]

23. I sense a double standard here

When sitting in class as 1st graders and being taught that the Native Americans made sure to use every part of the animals they killed, it was presented as a wise and virtuous.

When industrialized society uses every part of the animal (hotdogs, gelatin, etc.) it is considered gross and disturbing. On the other hand if the lips, testes, hooves, hair, eyeballs, and other scraps were discarded there would be condemnation for being wasteful. There is no pleasing some people

[LongTomH]

26. Eyeballs and Assholes

....at least that's how a friend of mine referred to processed meats (dogs & cold cuts) in general.

[methinks2]

29. chili cheese dogs w/onions and mustard

Yummy

[dr.strangelove]

30. Hey, notin like ground testes

MMM!!

[Kellanved]

32. not real Frankfurters

100% tenderloin.

[MrSlayer]

33. Yes, and I don't care.

Sausage is something you never want to see made. Just grill it and eat it.

[GingerSnaps]

35. Everything that falls on the floor

That's what hot dogs are made out of :puke:.

[Misunderestimator]

36. Oh no... excuse me while I go purge

:puke: NSMA warned me not to read this thread...

[MrSandman]

37. All Beef...

a euphemism for "The Whole Cow/Steer/bull."

How about scrapple, souse, and haggis.

First two are deelish. I daren't try the third.

[Zero Division]

38. Which is why despite not being Jewish I love kosher beef dogs

I see that I'm not alone in that opinion here.

I once did a chemistry lab in college using ground hotdog meat. That really turned me off of regular pork hotdogs.

[Lady Effingbroke]

39. same with chorizo, "pork salivary glands and pork byproducts",

says so on the package!

[kodi]

41. if you bite into one that stiffens up, its made from something else
