I think the octopus shape actually adds to the creepiness of thhe who "hot dog" thing.

Ok, this was gross...
I haven't had hot dogs in a very long time but just last week and I'm ashamed to say it was quite tasty. Now I'll be thinking about this next time I even look at a hot dog.

Derek's comment: well said!

This post: hilarious as evah!

I hadn't heard that hot dogs were made of "pig anuses" but it's so funny that a kid used a more adult word (no ass, no butt). I was told that hot dogs were made of "parts" and those "parts" probably had a high percentage of SNOUTS.

What I also thought was odd was that my dad made me balogna sandwiches and there was the first confusion of the fact that how did balogna become "baloney" and how was something that looked (in the deli case) like a GIANT HOTDOG and have the texture of a cold hot dog not be essentially a HOT DOG??

PLUS, why was I eating balogna sandwiches? I didn't want balogna sandwiches although I never liked PBJs either since well...

Anyway, we all joked in school that "parts is parts" but I slowly stopped eating hot dogs plus there was the whole Nitrates thing and living to over a 100 on preservatives alone and then they'd cut you open to find the gum you swallowed at age 7. And maybe a few pennies.

But ya know, back in the day when I liked camping, there was something so delicious about a hotdog burnt to a crisp from being held too close to a campfire.

So I will indulge in some extruded parts formed into a tubular foodstuff and then grilled. Ketchup and basic yeller mustard and sweet relish...yum!

Hmm...maybe I'll cut 'n paste this into a post.

I can believe it! But seriously, I just ate a hot dog tonight! Gross! LOL.

Kerry - I think Joe attends just about every school, doesn't he? :-) :-) :-)

Roger - But was it shaped like an octopus? :-)

Hey I just had one for supper!!

JP- Glad to have done my good deed for the day! I turned someone off to Lysol once too.

Delmer - Yeah, you'd think pig anuses and eyeballs might actually be a selling point.

People - :-) :-) :-)

Funny Derek!

Alf - There's not a doubt in my mind that that boy knew what an anus was. Or how to use a gun for that matter. :-) Six year olds ain't what they used to be...

Jeff - Delish, right?

Thanks Debw!

Lara - I knew I needed not just your average hot dog for this post. :-)

Lotus - None for me thanks!

Ricardo & MissM- Glad your vote is with me on this one!

Beth - You are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO kidding, right?!? I devote more time than strictly necessary to this blog, but I like to think I don't go totally overboard! Ok, maybe I DO go overboard, but I still didn't carve up the hotdogs... :-) :-) :-)

Christine - Your boys are welcome to eat at my house any ole' time. That's EXACTLY the kind of dinnertime conversation I like to promote. :-) :-) :-) RIGHT BETH?!?!?! Weren't we just talking about chicken slaughter at the Chick-fil-A the other day?!?!?!

2008-05-01T03:00:00.000-07:00

My kids have decided that at the meat plant, they cut up all the steaks and pork chops and chicken breasts and what have you and sell that.

At the end of the day, when they clean up, there is a lot of leftover disgusting meat scrap stuff all over the floor, right?

They sweep THAT up, and make hot dogs.

Needless to say, a pack of hot dogs lasts a very long time at our house.

2008-04-30T18:47:00.000-07:00

who cares, it is all ground up and nice and smooth, way better than sausage with all that grissel! please don't tell me you spent the time carving those cute octopi hot dogs?

2008-04-30T14:45:00.000-07:00

I've always said they were made from Pig lips and a**holes, so I guess I'd be on board with Joe's description!

Yes, I belive you are correct on this one Jill. Also, it's better we DON'T know what's in them.

So who started this awful rumor that Pig Eyes and Pig Anus' are bad for you? The Pig Anus Advisory Board is going hear about this!!!...(past the mustard)

2008-04-30T10:00:00.000-07:00

Yuck. I hate hot dogs anyway. And let me tell you that is a very interesting picture you chose to illustrate this post.

Too funny TFS!!

Most people know what they're doing when they use puns. It was very brave of you to admit that you meant it. I have a good joke I heard in the bookstore I used to work in (so you know it's intellectually adequate):

A woman goes into a bar and orders a Double Entendre, so the barman says, "I'll give you one."

So, you should be able to sell eating hot dogs to ...

2008-04-30T07:21:00.000-07:00

So, you should be able to sell eating hot dogs to little kids based on the Fear Factor factor (weak pun intended).

Well, at least the little boys would be on board with it.
