I don't know if it's the same in the US. That said though, they do tend to be high in salt too, so worth cutting back. Hi Stan,

John Morrell (this video) is about the cheapest hot dog you can buy, and the video shows why. Better quality dogs (Hebrew National, Vienna, Best Kosher, Boar's Head, etc) use whole natural cuts of meat, no trimmings, and no additives or fillers. You get what you pay for. Don't buy cheap hot dogs. I’m in the hot dog biz. John Morrell (this video) is about the cheapest hot dog you can buy, and the video shows why.

But, the little bits of gristle etc bother me quite a bit too. Especially now that I've seen this video! Hi Ruth,

Can't believe I use to love hot dogs when I was a kid, glad I stopped eating them years ago. Hopefully I can convince my kids to stop!
