    This was simplified to “You are what you eat” as part of the agreement reached at the Council of Constance to reunify the church after the Western Schism of 1378.

        “silly sausage”, despite its redundancy.

        That always bothered me, sausages are naturally silly, first we shoved the ground up and spiced meat of the animal into its own intestines, then we make it into phallic shapes, then when we cook them they jump around and scream like tiny little limbless people.

        That’s why Frankfurts have a German name, they’re serious and convenient.

    I like the idea of hot dogs more than I actually like hot dogs. Every now and then I get a craving for one and throw it on the grill but it’s always slightly disappointing. It’s never as good as I think it’ll be. I need to learn to just stick with hamburgers. Those are never disappointing.

      Make sure to get 100% beef hot dogs for a less disappointing experience.

        Polar opposites experience for me. All beef Oscar Meyers are oily gross pieces of trash that only belong in the bin.

        Combined meat though? I could eat them plain, in a sandwich, on a pizza, fried for breakfast. Mmmmm.

        Cheap BarQs can go in casserole, Mac and cheese and ramen.

              In my opinion! But, I’m going to be honest with you; if I have my way, I’m buying cheddarwurst over hot dogs of any variety every time. Once I discovered it was possible to buy dogs infused with cheese, I’ve never seen any reason to do anything else :-)

      I’m very much so the same. My advice, to fill that craving, is a smoked sausage, cooked until it’s blackened. So good. So much better than hotdogs.

      Before you put them on the grill, slice them about half way through diagonally on one side and diagonally again in the other side in the same way … the hot dog will expand across the entire length and crisp along the cut edges. More crisp makes it taste better and the longer length actually fits the length of your bun.

      Sometimes, I will slice them (not all the way through) longways and boil them.

      Most of the fat and salt will boil out and they are very light and nice.

      If you happen not to eat them and they then cool and dry, they will be very small.

    Just to be a pedant - most hotdogs (or indeed any sausage) haven’t used actual intestine for some time now, they generally use a manufactured collagen casing.

      It’s a holy trinity … there is the hot dog, you eating the hot dog and you and the hot dog becoming one and the same but still separate

    When does the meat become poop tho? Once it passes a certain point? Does it happen slowly, like it’s only 50% poop at a certain point?
