Did not watch. I don't want to know how they are made...
This video doesn't do much to dispel the myth that hotdogs are made of lips and assholes.

If, at your age, you still think hot dogs are healthy food, watching this video is not going to change your mind.Quote:

I used to love Oscar Mayer's dogs until they changed the recipe taking out the nitrates and no longers smoking them. Now they're crap!
The part they didn't show is that they take the casing off the hotdogs:

Maybe they were crap before the change, and all they did was remove the ingredients that masked the crappyness. That’s how spices became a thing, after all.Quote:

Commercially produced will always use the cheapest offal, lights and pipes as my grandfather sold to make 'meat' paste (pork brawn) to those who could not afford better cuts of meat, though they didn't show mechanically/hydraulically recovered meat slurry in the mix you can be sure it's in there in most hot-dog manufacturing plants.

I don't eat that kind of "hot dog" I know they're not vastly different but I like my Nathan's Famous All Beef franks. Much better flavor and I haven't seen how they're made, so I'm safe!
Nathan's are good.Quote:

We have bought sausages and weiners from a German deli, all made on site. Knew the family for more than a decade. Best kind of "hot dogs" ever. When we can't get them, we'll find a new sausage maker.
No lips and hoves in what we get...
