They're free of preservatives and nitrates. I don't eat meat, but Hubby says they're pretty good. I think some of them are basically just 100% organic meat plus spices.<BR/><BR/>I eat vegetarian hotdogs, which are often made from tofu. Some have preservatives, others don't. They're ok... but they don't really taste like hotdogs.Bitsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11005488632369835567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705745015696842372.post-54378830109099368372008-02-06T22:32:00.000-08:002008-02-06T22:32:00.000-08:00Ya, I wasn't going to be the one to break that to ...Ya, I wasn't going to be the one to break that to you. For some reason, I've come to terms with that because of...well, my husband's expanded my view of food over the years. I don't quite know how or why, but i'm O.K. with the intestine part. Weird, huh?<BR/><BR/>Personally, for me it was Lisa Simpson's depiction of a <A HREF="http://www.boosman.com/blog/2003/08/the_truth_about_hot_dogs.html" REL="nofollow">hot dog</A> in the episode where she becomes a vegetarian. Her thought bubble has an image of 4 "things," then a part from each of those "things" is gathered into the center of the thought bubble, and there's your hot dog!MetaMommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04215017798814280039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4705745015696842372.post-61952149207088569222008-02-05T18:57:00.000-08:002008-02-05T18:57:00.000-08:00Sorry no, haven't tried them.

I'm still freaked out a bit by anything hot doggish.<BR/><BR/>When I was a kid my grandma told me they chopped up dogs and pigs and stuck them into a cow's intestine and THAT's what, voila, a hot dog is made up of. <BR/><BR/>I've been terrified of them ever since. Don't hate me. :)MamaGeek @ Works For Ushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09563543041234527282noreply@blogger.com
