They destroy your brain cells! Full of poison! Threw them away!

I do love Butterflybrain's pics though. Got me thinking about what else I could stab with spaghetti but I'm coming up blank.

Chopped with a mustard mayo, to go with salad.

Google crown roast of frankfurters
its an old WW recipe. Hilarious!
Yuk mystery food.
My kids loved them when they were little. Didnt do any harm I hope.

I use frozen vegetarian hot dogs, thus:

Dice onion and fry in bottom of saucepan.
Meanwhile, microwave 4 veggie hot dogs for 1 minute to defrost, and cut into chunks.
Add to saucepan.
Add 1 tin chopped tomatoes and whatever herbs you have to hand.
Heat up and simmer for a few mins.
Meanwhile, also cook 5 oz tagliatelle according to the pack instructions.
Put tagliatelle on plates, add tomato and sausage mixture.
Use napkins (my DH cannot eat this without getting in a mess), and enjoy - serves 2.

Have a look at the ingredients on the packaging then give them to the dog . Be prepared for it to turn its nose up at them !

If you intend eating them, do not, I repeat DO NOT, read the ingredients. I did this and couldn't even look at them again

Gosh, we eat a lot worse. Think pate, pies / pastries, sausages, spreads, sandwich fillings etc

Sometimes its worth getting over pig ears and trotters (which can be prepared as a gastronomic delicacy). If you're skint, then there's at least some protein and taste in these meals.

It would be good if we could get over the snob-thing.

I actually like hotdogs

I think it was the way that the ingredients were termed. I wasn't trying to be snobby as such and was trying to make a bit of a joke. As for trotters and such, I agree with well sourced snout to tail eating.

I'm sorry if I implied that someone who was struggling shouldn't eat them. Or indeed anyone who enjoys them. I just found that they weren't for me.

Oh, I didn't mean my post to come over virtuous at all. Sorry. I do appreciate where you are coming from Carrie.

But - it is worth being mindful that if we eat an animal we should be decent and eat / make use of it all, not to be wasteful.

My mum in the 70 / 80's's used to make a pizza tart kind of thing that had hotdogs, sliced with tomato sauce, cheese and whatever veggies were around, all baked in a yeast-made bread dough crust pie. Bit like a Chicago deep pan before its time!

Ah sorry katkin - maybe I was being oversensitive

My mum used to make hotdog hash, it worked well
