This makes me very glad not to eat meat. No one's making me a hotdog if I can help it!
So if all hotdogs are hotdogs of other hotdogs, there must be a hotdog that was never a hotdog of another hotdog.
That hotdog is God.
EDIT: Hotgod
Easily my favorite saint.
Sausages may be housed in animal intestines, but I'd be surprised if hotdogs were. I think hotdogs retain their shape just from the pre-cooking process they all go through before being packaged. Correct me if I'm wrong.
You are only about 1/3rd wrong (but mostly correct)! Hotdogs absolutely have casings, sometimes natural animal intestine of pork or sheep, other organs, and collagen casings --those are edible, and stay on the 'dogs. Others use things like cellulose, and various filler type ingredients to create a casing, and those are stripped off before shipping. If you don't know the ingredients, you can usually tell if it's natural casing from the extra stiffness in the bite. And they're usually more expensive, lol
Oh wow, some are stripped off before shipping? So cheap American-style hotdogs such as Oscar Mayer would be an example of that?

What other kind of hot dog is there? That's just a hot dog.
Gotcha. Just making sure we're talking about the same thing.

Doesn't this apply to all kinds of sausage?
Didn't know I needed History Showerthoughts, yet here we are

Who are you, so wise in the ways of science?
Aquinas once spoke of the mythical hotdog of the hills.
soon that will be a reality and we will be crowned its kings. Or better than kings... Dogs!
If only TA knew of lunchmeats, which hot dogs are categorized under, he could have really stirred up some shit.
