Contrary to popular belief, hot dogs are not made from left-over meat laying around on the floors of meat-packing houses. Whether it is pork or beef that is stuffed into a hot dog, the meat trimmings are carefully selected just like the meat you buy in your grocer's coolers.
Most recipes for hot dogs combine together a blend of meats (pork, beef, chicken, or turkey), meat fat, a cereal filler which could be either bread crumbs, flour, or oatmeal, a little bit of egg white, and a array of herbs and seasonings including garlic, pepper, ground mustard, nutmeg, salt, and onion.
Once these ingredients are ground together, the stuffing is squeezed into sausage casings. Many of the hot dogs sold in stores are enclosed in synthetic cellulose casings, but most home-made hot dogs are made out of natural animal intestines.
Following the stuffing process is the pre-cooking cycle in which the hot dog links are tossed into boiling water for approximately 15 minutes. Finally, the dogs are packaged, loaded on delivery trucks, and sent off to food markets.

Hot Dogs are made from beef. So basically you're eating a part of a cow right now.

theres beef, turkey, and chicken....so who knows wich one your eating right now

Ok, I am not sure whether this is completely true, but supposedly hotdogs are not good for you at all. In fact, your only supposed to have a couple a year. They wont kill you, but they have very little nutritional value and your better off without them. I also heard that while some are from different meat from a cow, others are just scraps of anything and everything in a cow. So I haven't eaten once since I heard the once or twice a year info.

Most are beef one or two are turkey ??Chicken
Why worry IT says on the package
Ready TO eat.
AND
Has a nutritional lable on it by law.
? It is not an MRI ?
The world of TV has it's reputation at stake.

Lots of stuff. Lol. Really, I dont think you want to know.

hot dogs are made of piggie intestines. haha im sure you wanna eat it now.

hey ashley....
well, i have heard and read on the internet that hot dogs can be made out of different things...
50% of the hot dogs in the world are made from the spare parts of a cow. It is not harmful, just a little gross.

20% of the hot dogs are made of the spare parts of a chicken. again, its not harmful.

30% of hot dogs in the world are actually made of chicken, beef, turkey...these are not the spare parts but the chicken parts...i dont know how to explain it!!!!!

the spare parts are crushed, molded into there shape and then are colored with food coloring....i hope this helps!!!!
