Well, when you compare a regular dash of corn syrup to the batch being made, its not that much. So they need to add more depending on the size on the batch. But yes, it does sound weird at first glance.
Well this proves the old saying “If you knew how they were made you would never eat them”. But, then again, it also makes me want to fire up the grill.
I’m allergic to chicken, so I can only have beef franks, so the only thing I see that is appalling from how it’s made, is the processed chicken and how it looks when it comes out the tubes.
What is amazing is that these machines haven't changed much since the 1960s. A state of the art 1960 hot dog factory is basically identical to a modern one.
Everyone else: "Ew that's so gross! I never wanna eat a hotdog ever again!" Me and my severe lack of standards: *continues eating 7th hotdog of the day*
I know it's supposed to be gross but I'm just impressed that they can take what could be waste and make it enjoyable. It's an efficient use of muscle, sinew, gristle, and undesirable meat.
They sure make a hellofalot of hotdogs at a damn fast pace. However, millions of people eat hotdogs everyday. I used to count how many of other people's grocery carts at the store had a package of hotdogs in them, at least a few every time. Hotdogs always been number 1 choice (after hamburgers) on the grill at barbeques and cookouts. And they've always been the top stadium food at ballgames
That’s true, although they also have a reputation for being a novelty, summer food staple as well. It probably used to be even more quintessential as an actual dinner food in the 20th century.
Honestly, other than the addition of corn syrup, and the intentional over-grinding, this is essentially just what a sausage is: a way to make use of all the parts of the meat that nobody likes. So I'm not grossed out or anything. But I am curious why the hotdogs in my country are colored red.
Denmark? Dunno, but grandpa worked at Tre Stjernet in product development and quality checks for 30 years or so. He could change all the recipes as he liked but røde pølse was off-limit.
Tradition, dying meat red means it's lower quality so they're popular with customers for being cheap, sausage also has a slight red color from smoke so it might be due to that, as smoking them takes a long time they never bothered and use liquid smoke and dye to artificially create the color and flavor, could also be a marketing tactic to be unique from other brands.
the red color comes from a blood curse. in order to make 1 million healthy hot dogs they have to use a very elaborate demonic ritual to force all the cursed blood into one unlucky pack of hotdogs and they aren't allowed to throw them awaym. apparently your country is the one that drew the Short straw and has to consume them. but don't worry, after world war 3 your country will get an imunity idol during the next cursed hot dog straw choosing!
Y'know, i expected this to be a lot worse hearing legends of how hot dogs are made. The imagery is a little disturbing, yeah, but it's just a bunch of regular meat grinded together to form oh-so-delicious dogs.
Does anyone like cooking? If the answer is yes then make your own hotdogs, using filleted chicken or pork blend about 1 kilo of meat in a electric Blender until it's pretty fine, add salt, black pepper, half tablespoon of ground fennel seeds, teaspoon of chilli powder and dried thyme. Mix everything together. You should get about 10 or 12 sausages /hotdogs from this mixture, get some grease proof paper, equally divide the meat and roll into cigar shape with grease proof paper, secure the paper's edges by twisting. Place parcels in a steamer for 20/30 minutes. Leave to cool off, keep some in your freezer or fridge, I usually fried them they are very tasty. And at least you know whats inside them. I find that the best steamer to use is the bamboo type, you may have to steam 2 separate batches of sausages, like I do, my bamboo steamer is on the small size.

The mix depends on the company and recipe. You can get all turkey hot dogs and all beef. Hebrew National are really good. I often wonder why they keep changing narrators. Like we can’t handle a British accent in the US. Although it does seem so weird without the voice I’m so used to. Could be depending on work license though
A grocery store near my home used to carry "Spicy" hotdogs about a footlong. They were the best, but they stopped carrying them. My dogs love hotdogs as well. Shalom
