Hot Dogs & Sausages

[CaliKat 153]

Since we are SMACK DAB in the middle of summer- has anyone tried a hot dog or sausage that was (relatively) good nutritional content and that didnt gross you out?

I go to lots of BBQ's and always bring a package of wieners or sausages (running gag) and kinda need to find one that I can enjoy.

I have found the only hot dog I can eat w/o being queesy is a Hebrew National. I also do fine with the chicken sausages you get at Costco/Whole Foods (but they are gross).

Looking for a bit of variety. What ones can you recommend?

I hope you get some good answers to this one.

I personally hate hot dogs, but for the last month I would give my left leg to have one. My wife did preop diet with me... except for the time I drove past 7eleven and saw her inhaling a hot dog!! Now it's stuck in my brain.

That literally made me LOL!!! I could so see my husband doing that : )

I enjoy the Hebrew National and the Nathan's, but I haven't been sleeved yet so I really enjoy just about everything but protien drinks right now.

I ate a Nathan's dog july 4th and it was ok. It agreed with me and I could only eat less that half the dog! That was only 98 calories. Yayyyyy! I find that I really am not crazy about bread!

I think maybe method of preparation could be a factor, I do okay with grilled dogs but not dogs fried on a flat top or boiled. A regular sized dog ran through the garden Chicago-style but without the bun, I can eat half, then the other half 30 minutes later. Nathan's are good, as are Hebrew National and Boarshead light.

Love me some Butterball Turkey Polska Kielbasas! A good bit of salt as expected, but not as high on calories as hot dogs or regular brats. Also they are really low in fat and have about 25 grams of Protein each. I usually eat them on a fork with a little mustard.

Have you tried any of the turkey sausage links? I know wal-mart carries them in different flavors and they have lower fat than beef or pork.

I'm only 9 days post-op and was sad that I couldn't have a Hebrew national grilled hot dog w/saur kraute & spicy mustard for 4th of July. lol looking forward to when I can

Cheap hot dogs are most lip, glands and ... I won't go there. I eat the Hebrew National fat free kind. I like them. If I go in for full fat I will eat a Nathans snap dog (with the casing).

I am a fan of Italian sausage. It's not very lean, but since our neighborhood Italian market grinds their own, i know what's in it. I like the hot kind.

For the bun I will slice one half of one longways and eat it open face with a tiny bit of chili, onions and or mustard. Mmmmmm, spicy mustard. I try to get healthier Buns or bread for them.

Good LORD! Never get a hot dog from 7-11. My husband was desperate. There were 3 hot dogs on the grill and he got one of them. He went in two days later and there were still two hot dogs on that grill machine thing.

They may have been the same dogs or not. We will never know.

Dorrie how long since you have been sleeved?

[Ms skinniness 3,003]

Skane ~ I was sleeved 9 months ago on October 4, 2011. Best thing I have ever done. I have learned so much about my self.

[skane10 64]

I loved reading everyone's story about their experiences. It has helped me through my slump of a stall for 5 days

[thinmymind 107]

I like the chicken and turkey ones from Applegate Farms.
