Can hot dogs be considered as a meal?

[Jay203]

So out of no where I got into this argument with a friend about this.
She thinks that hog dogs are nothing but snacks and can ONLY be snacks.
I said otherwise, I claim that hot dogs can be consumed as a meal, not just a snack.
Now, the hog dog in question is not limited to the plain bun + dog. It can be any variety of hot dog. The amounts are specified either

So here's the question for you guys/gals out there, can hot dog(s) be considered as a meal?

place your vote here

well if u eat hotdog dry, its not really a meal.

But normally ppl put stuff on it, so yes, it is a meal. Its meat, veggies, etc(ALMOST balanced.)

Hodee-oten-doten-day Hodee-oten-day-oh Hodee-oten-doten-day - Chowing down on hotdogs.

I guess it depends on what you consider a meal. O.o

I guess I vote for it being a meal in that it is a piece of food.
A really, really bad salty meal of questionable origin.
By that definition Taco Bell is a meal too........

Has that person never been camping? You don't even need a bun...just hotdogs on a stick.

A couple decades ago i worked at a hotdog place.

You don't want to see what people who eat them often look like. What has been seen cannot be unseen and will haunt me until i die.

"yeah i want 12 with everything and extra cheese. and a large diet soda"


They are not a meal. They barely qualify as food. :P

Anyone who has seen Man vs. Food can attest to the meal status of the hot dog. I bring you ... the Super Moon Perro: http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/short..._supermoon.php.



For those who don't enjoy clicking on things, it's a huge hot dog with bacon, chorizo, five sauces and a quail egg.

Or there's always the salty dog with the works - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IXQ6II4fac - go to 1:30. It's a beer-battered foot-long hot dog deep fried and topped with sauteed onions, mushrooms, sauerkraut, bacon and lots of cheese. Oh, and there's always the two-foot-long Doogie Dog:
