Hot Dogs

Americans eat a lot of hot dogs! According to the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council (NHDSC), Americans purchase 9 billion hot dogs per year from grocery stores! Adding in what would be consumed at restaurants or ball parks, the NHDSC estimates that the total number consumed in a year is approximately 20 billion hot dogs! Source: Potato Rolls

  1. Wow, again a menu that I do not eat, even it looks
    so pleasant colorful! But indeed is easy to take, I suppose.
    National Hot Dog and Sausage Council? What on earth are they doing?
    … Nice job…
    Happy WW, dear Sandee. I’ll be out of the game for two weeks.
    All the best. Hugs and joy!❤️😘

    • I rarely have a hotdog. I do enjoy them, but I’m sure they aren’t good for us. I’ll miss you for the next two weeks and thanks for letting me know. I won’t worry about you. Love, hugs and joy, Suzana. 🙂

    • I hear you. I had no idea how popular hotdogs are. Happy day and rest of the week, Veronica. 🙂

    • Ketchup is a good thing on a hot dog. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂

    • They are very delicious, Chica. Have a great day and rest of the week. Hugs. 🙂

    Gosh those hot dogs look yummy. Favorite meals come and go but hot dogs have been on a lot of people’s lists FOREVER. Love the ‘toons – I relate to every single one of them……getting older is not for the old. HAHAHA

    Love, Pam

    • We rarely have hotdogs, but every now and then. Getting older is not for the old indeed. You made me laugh out loud. 🙂

    • I just had mustard on mine yesterday. Lots of mustard. Scritches to Duke. 🙂

    • I think I’m going to try a Costco hotdog at some point. I hear they are really good. 🙂

    Yum! I love hot dogs. We buy all beef hot dogs, and whole wheat buns. I don’t know if that is healthier, but the effort is there.

  4. They are a big item for most people especially at grill parties or picnics and sports events. Mom liked them but doesn’t eat them anymore. They are also inexpensive.

    • They aren’t good for you, but we have them now and then. I’d rather have a grilled burger. Scritches to the pups. 🙂

  5. I grew up with kosher all beef hot dogs. I rarely eat them now, but can still enjoy one, with mustard or an onion sauce popular in New York City.

    • I love the all beef hotdogs. I would love to try the New York style dog. Sounds good. 🙂

    • Enjoy. We love a good beef hotdog now and then. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

    • It had been years since we had a hotdog, but I sure enjoyed mine yesterday. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the precious pups. 🙂

  6. I LOVE hot dogs…just like those but less of everything on them. Same stuff, just less. I rarely have one but sometimes I buy all beef hotdogs, and love every bite of one; all decorated up with ketchup, onion, relish. mustard, you name it. YUM!

    • We only buy beef ones too. I like what you put on your hotdogs. Delicious. 🙂

    • Bravo. We do too. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

    I had to laugh. I heard of a study saying every hot dog you eat takes 26 minutes off your lifespan. If that’s true, I’ve been dead for about 3 years now. I love hot dogs. 🤣😎🙃

    • I didn’t know this about hotdogs. We don’t eat them very often. You made me laugh out loud with you’ve been dead for about 3 years. 🙂

  8. For years, The Hubby and I watched the July 4th Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest on TV, and despite how cringey it is, it’s still great fun.
    Now, it’s only on a channel that we don’t have, so we just have to read the next day’s news that Joey Chestnut has done it again.

    • How fun and Nathan’s is a great hotdog. Happy day and rest of the week. Scritches to the kitties. 🙂

    • Hubby and I were hungry for a hot dog while shopping last week. We bought some and I had one yesterday. Delicious. 🙂

    • I had a hot dog for breakfast yesterday. It was most delicious. 🙂

    I wonder how many of the hot dogs eaten are from Costco’s $1.50 deal. Those are the only hot dogs I eat. 🙂

    • I’ve never had one at Costco, but I hear they are very, very good. 🙂

        1.50 for hot dog and a drink. 😀

    • It sure would. I’d rather have chocolate though. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂

    • Those are good too. Have a great day and rest of the week, my friend. 🙂

    • You can have them so many ways. We only eat the all beef ones though. Love and hugs to you my wonderful friend. 🙂

    • I used to get them when I was working. A quick lunch and always so good. Now I rarely have a hotdog. Love and hugs to you and Ziggy. 🙂

  10. That’s a lot of hot dogs!
    Not something I have often, but fun once in a while, especially with “everything on it” and regional variations 🌭

    • I don’t have them very often either, but now and then I want a good hot dog. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂

  11. Happy WEdnesday, Sandee! 9 times our of 10 we will get a $1.50 hot dog at Costco after we shop in their wharehouse –they are so good!

    You may have as many hotdogs as you wish, so enjoy. I cannot recall when last I had one, and just do not eat it.
    Hi there, Sandee. Thank you for this #WW party. Enjoy your week.
    This week: #50+52
    We now have three Linkies: SSPS; TFT and #WW at https://esmesalon.com/wordlesswednesday/

    • It’s not the best thing to eat, but there are lots of things that aren’t good for us. Thank you for all you do. 🙂

    • That is a great combination. Happy Wednesday, Yvonne. Hugs. 🙂

    • I had one yesterday. It was really good. Double Pawkisses to you both and a big hug to Granny. 🙂

  13. Yep, that’s a lot of hot dogs alright! Now that I am among the retired folks, I won’t be eating nearly as many (I ate them for lunch almost every day.) That oughta drop it by a few, LOL!

    • I remember having them for lunch when I was working too. So good. 🙂

  14. I love hot dogs, but I prefer the real bratwurst sausages with lots of ketchup too. Not that I am a picky eater, mind you. Thank you for the trivia, Sandee.
    Happy Wordless Wednesday, dear friend. Peace, love, and light to you!

    • Bratwurst is good too. Not had one in a long time. Happy Wordless Wednesday and rest of the week. Love and hugs, my wonderful friend. 🙂

  15. That’s a lot of hot dogs! I imagine it is true. We like them, too. We used to make them at home, but now just go to Weinerschnitzle. Kraut dog and chili cheese dog. Yum! Happy Wednesday <3

    • I’ve not had a hotdog out for a very long time. Happy day and rest of the week. 🙂

    • I agree. You and Mr. Sweety have a blessed week, too. Scritches all around. 🙂

    That is a lot of hotdogs! lol Who knew we could eat so many?

    Thank you for hosting WW, Sandee!

    Happy Wednesday! Love and hugs, my friend. 🩷🌺

    • In the summer there are a lot of them on the grill. I’d rather have a good burger, but that’s just me. Happy day and rest of the week, Kymber. Love and hugs. 🙂

    • I had one yesterday and it was delicious. Happy day and rest of the week, Linda. 🙂

    Yummy hotdogs

    • I agree. Once in a while. Happy day and rest of the week, my friend. 🙂

    • That’s most of us. Our systems can’t take hotdogs. 🙂

    Except for the onions, those look really yummy. Our mom likes the all beef Ballpark Franks; though, she doesn’t buy them as they are not very good for old folks. Thanks for linking us up.

    • That’s what we bought a few days ago. Delicious, but not good for old folks. Happy Wordless Wednesday. Scritches to the kitties, a smooch to Cooper Murphy and a big hug to you. 🙂

    • You’re most welcome. Thank you for joining the hop. 🙂

    In our family we typically grill burgers but offer hot dogs for those who want a change. I finally found a vegetarian variety is is pretty tasty so lately I’l been enjoy them…and the sauerkraut on top makes them fabulous. Such a summer time staple!

    • I agree with you. A burger is my first choice. Have a fabulous day and rest of the week. Love and hugs to you and Wilson. 🙂

  20. There is only two ways I’ll eat a hotdog. Well, three.
    1. Beef not pork
    2. Roasted with outside charred a bit. lots of Ketchup.
    3. Chili served on top.
    Visiting from EsmeSalon #WW
    Have a fun week
    All the best.

    YUM!! Was just listening to a baseball game on the radio and they ran a hot dog commercial right as I was opening your blog! Too funny!

  22. I’ve never been a fan of hot dogs, but would eat one right out of the refrigerator in my teen years when I needed a quick bite before bedtime. lol Hugs and best wishes, my dear.

    • I still do that. A cold hot dog on a dry piece of sourdough bread. 🙂
