Why I Won't...

So I came across one of Husband's books, and it's called...(I can't believe I am sharing the title), "Uncle John's Fast-Acting Long-Lasting Bathroom Reader", yeah..pretty funny. It's actually pretty interesting if you haven't seen it. It's one of those books that contains all sorts of topics and things you would never think to ask or whatever. So...I'm looking through it and there's the question asked What is really in Hot dogs? YACK! ((GAG))

All manufacturers must list their ingredients on the label. Beef, pork, chicken, turkey, etc can only be used if the meat comes from muscle tissue of the animal. If you see the words 'meat by products' or 'variety meats', the hotdog may contain snouts, stomachs, hearts, tongues, lips, spleens, etc. Frankfurters once contained only beef and pork but now can legally contain sheep, goat and up to 15% chicken. Hot dogs are made by grinding the meat with water, seasoning, sweeteners, perservatives, salt, and binders.

Now, that that's said...what kind do you eat??
