Question

What meat is in hot-dogs, if any at all. I've have been led to understand that it floor sweepings etc..?

Answer 1

Regular hot dogs, chicken, pork.  All beef are just that.  Turkey dogs are just that.  Read labels.  They are so informative.  Don't know what most of the igredients are.  If I did I would probably never eat again.

Answer 2

It depends on the brand and the state they are made in.  Kosher is all beef from the flank area of the cow, no ugly bits you don't want to know about.

Answer 3

They scrape the back carcass of a chicken to make hotdogs and bologna.I work in a chicken plant.

Answer 4

From Wikipedia: "Hot dogs are traditionally made from beef, pork, or a combination."

I think they use those terms 'beef' and 'pork' fairly loosely. As in, any part of a cow or pig can be called beef, or pork.

Answer 5

Hot dogs are mechanically separated meats. It usually says right on the package pork, chicken, turkey, and beef are the four main meats in it. There are all beef hot dogs, and ones that have fewer calories.

Floor sweepings, no that is not true. It is just scrap meat.

Answer 6

leftovers...u really dnt wanna knw

Answer 7

It's usually made from MRM (mechanically reclaimed meat.) This is the hotdogs with the red skin on them. MRM is when they take the leftover pieces of chicken, cow, pig and other animals and mix them all together. Then they force them through holes in a giant pot using pressure to force it through. That's not to say they use genitals or the stomach. It's just normal meat, despite popular myth.

You may find it hard to decide what a hotdog tastes like because of how they make MRM!

I am actually a vegetarian. I look at racism and stuff like that and say to people who complain about them

"Humans can have their rights when it is recognised that animals are alive too and there is no reason they should have less rights than we do."
