Do ball park hot dogs really have worms in them!?

Question

Me and my mom were talking and a friend of hers told her that if u dip a hot dog in bleach you can see the worms come out of the hot dogs!

Answer 1

Not true.  If they had worms, that would mean they had REAL protein, and that's just not the case when it comes to hot dogs.

Answer 2

no who the h**l told u that

its just a made up story

try them they are good i have had one!!

Answer 3

I don't know but I am going to try it.

Answer 4

Yes it is true. Also, chocolate will also give you worms. Yummy yummy!! Eat-up!!

Answer 5

Probably not living worms, but many foods have disgusting things that are allowed to certain limits. For example if you have EVER eaten store bought peanut butter, you have also eaten rat f***s. The government allows a certain percentage in the product because it is too expensive to completely eliminate rats in factories.

Answer 6

Worms are much more expensive that the cuts of meat they typically use in hot-dogs, so I'm guessing this is an "urban legend."

Answer 14

no, Becca, but FDA allows rodent hair content of 20 hair/hot dog. How can rodent hair het in there ? rodents groom by l*****g themselves and tere is only one way for the hair to come out, with their droppings, so FDA allows a certain amount of rat droppings in hot dogs.

Answer 15

I'm not sure about worms in them, but factories will allow certain amounts of rat fecies in peanut butter and hot dogs ect.

Answer 16

The kosher ones certainly do not.

Answer 17

no, you can get worms if you eat a raw hot dog often.

Answer 18

negative

Answer 19

Okay, why exactly is she dipping ballpark hotdogs in some bleach in the first place? Anyone else not seeing the logic of that?

Honestly, I don't think so. Of course, you can never be 100% sure that any foods you buy have.. err, something extra chewy and gooey in the center. Even the foods you buy in the grocery store (food call backs for the lose!)

So don't be worried to buy a hotdog from the ballpark, and if you really want to be sure there's no wormies in your hotdog, feel free to dip your hotdog in bleach and ruin your perfectly good (not to mention expensive) hotdog.

Answer 20

OK here is the scoop on Hot Dogs. If Hot Dogs did have worms they would already be dead by the curing process for the meat (brine and nitrates/nitrites) and by the cooking (steam, boiling or grilling). It would mean the meat was diseased to begin with and the worms did not come from elsewhere. Thus only buy name brands and stay away from dubious looking stands and carts.

Kosher hot dogs are made from USDA and Rabbinically inspected meat certified to be disease free and clean. Typically it is bull meat from the forequarter of the cow. The hot dog is all beef and does not contain grain or rice fillers. It probably contains less fat than non-kosher hot dogs. They are the only type of Hot dogs sold at Costco and Sam's Club.

This urban legend has the same legs as the one about not seeing any cats around a Chinese Restaurant.

Answer 21

Not all.
