man, do you work for the hotdog lobby?
Go and see what "mechanicaly seperated" means....
When you throw a chicken carcas into a machine, you're going to get cartiledge, tendon, a little bone and meat.
Why the would a meat company take a trimmed boneless chicken breast or a sirloin steak that sells for $7.99 / lb. and put it into a hotdog that sells for 2.99 / lb.??? LOGIC!!!
I speak from SEEING IT. |

so what if hot dogs are made of scrotums and kidneys... they taste good... ignorance is bliss, =P
its like going to taco bell.... just don't think and eat...
trying to convince someone not to eat hot dogs cause its made of garbage is like telling someone not to eat at mcdonalds cause stuff get's dropped on the floor... well guess what, EVERY restuarant is dirty... any restaurant that an average person can afford to go to (and even really upscale ones) are dirty in some way... i used to work at one of those marche places... you think its all gourmet and cause its expensive, but i could tell you just as many horror stories as a mcd's employee... unless you grow your own food, everything is dirty, so let's not think about it and just eat up, =P |

I was a butcher's apprentice for a long while - so let me tell you what they REALLY use to make hotdogs/sausages:
When you're done trimming up a roast, or steaks, you're left with small scraps of meat (usually attached to fat) that you can't sell.
So what do you do? Mince it, grind it and then pack it in casing and sell it.
|
Dude, I wouldn't want to visit your god forsaken butcher. Those are the types of buchers that should arrested.

Whether you like it or not, hotdogs/sausages are the left overs.

Whether you like it or not, I am your god, so bow down to me, because all that I say is true... :rolleyes:
| quote: |
If you have a good butcher who makes their own dogs/sausage the casing is generally intestine. If the buy the packaged stuff it's usally some pseudo-casing (chemicals and such). |
There is no significant difference in casing. The intestine casing usualy goes through your digestive system. The chemical casing might actually get absorbed by your body as protein. So its actually better to eat the non-intestine sausages.
And I don't work for schneider's. I have some hot-dogs in my fridge. So I was happy to share some facts.

Mechanicaly seperated means seperated by a machine, NOT mechanicaly grinded. So they are seperated, like head pulled off, breast cut, etc. And last time I checked, machines do better jobs than humans. But thats not the point, the point is that goddamn fanatics are scared of hot-dogs. They think hot-dogs are poison or something, so they would rather spend 2x times the money for a quarter of a chicken (chicken breast). Its about money, at least you would understand that. Perhaps your logic does not have all the variables. |

Dr. Z you ignoramus, Potassium Lactate, Sodium Erythorbate, Sodium Nitrate are part of a family we "health nuts" :rolleyes: like to call "preservatives." There's a reason lots of products advertise "no preservatives" on their labels - because preservatives are bad for you, no matter what you think. They are chemicals.
Modified Corn Starch - ever stop to think what exactly is modified about it? You can't buy "modified" corn starch off the shelf. Regular bakers, cooks, restaurants, etc. don't use that kind of crap, only food factories.
RJ already talked about what mechanically separated means... and by the way, if you don't believe that all butchers do that, you might want to ask your own butcher how hot dogs are made before opening up that pie-hole of yours.
So that only leaves the obvious... after listing all those ingredients, how could you honestly say that hot dogs don't contain any fillers? They have tons of starch, preservatives, artificial sweeteners... IMO that's the only good thing about street meat, even though they might be from horses at least they're not the chemically-synthesized store-bought crap. |

OMG...does every thread on this forum have to turn into flames and pointless arguements???
the thread was meant for people to state their toppings on their hotdogs..not what the hotdog is freakin composed of |

I just don't get the whole hype over whether or not hot dogs are good for you because of what's in them and such. If you're going to die from eating a hot dog, it's more likely to be because of choking, not because of its ingredients.
Like Liam said, hot dogs are cheap and tasty. :tongue2 |
