Comments on: TV Ad Attacks Hot Dogs As Cancer Risk

But Actual Evidence Doesn't Measure Up To Pro-Vegetarian Sponsors' Claims

They are probably right about hotdogs considering that sick queasy feeling you get in the pit of your stomach after eating a few of them. Erasmus81 what are you doing up so late reading about hotdogs? avoiding work, or an insomniac? Myself, I am avoiding work.

"What part of the cow or pig does a hot dog come from anyway?" Posted by MNBrant at 02:20 AM : Aug 27, 2008

Someone told me years ago, but I can''t remember. I do remember it wasn''t good though.:)

"Anybody old enough to remember head cheese?"

I have heard the name, but do not know anything about it, and have never tasted it. And from the sounds of it, I am glad I didn''t.

I like hotdogs. What part of the cow or pig does a hot dog come from anyway? I am scared to find out. Anybody old enough to remember head cheese? Made from cow brains my gramps used to tell me. Boy was that good.

"Hot dogs typically contain muscle meat trimmings from pork or beef"

"But the government does allow them to contain pig snouts and stomachs, cow lips and livers, goat gullets and lamb spleens."

Mmmmmm, I can hardly wait to have another hot dog.

The truth about the ill effects of eating meat must be given to the public, although the meat industry and our poorly trained taste buds will disagree!!!

it''s not wise to lie to adults either....isn''t that right, mr. bush!

It is not wise to fool children. Lie to them and it will come back to haunt you on the really important stuff. They learned that adults lied to them about the evil of rock and roll, and look what happened: the 60''s.
