10 hotdogs per package; 8 rolls per package. Annoyance? Or marketing genius?

Yeah, they did that shit on purpose. Fuck Oscar Meyer AND Sara Lee.

I buy the 8 dogs and 8 rolls package. I'm a genius.

Shall we discuss how this has been discussed ad nauseum by many, many people? I remember a comedian asking this question some 20+ years ago when I was a little kid.

[Powermoloch]

I blend 10 hot dogs and buns :thumbsup:

 

[dullard]

The only mass produced hot dogs worth eating come in 7 per package. That leaves you with 7 dogs, 7 buns, and one bun always is burned on the grill before I get around to eating them. I see no problem.

 

[GuitarDaddy]

OM fixed this by creating "bun length" dogs that come 8 to a pack.

 

[BTA]

Beans and weenies sir.

I got Louisiana hot links from Costco and they come with 12, and the premium buns from Costco also come in packs of 12.

Mmmmm....

Ah, yes. The mythical "tendog." I've heard stories of its valor since I was a wee tot.

What planet are you guys on (and where are you shopping)? I never understood this issue it just doesn't happen where I live I guess:

Hot dogs come 8 in a pack, and so do hot dog buns.

 

[AstroManLuca]

Everything costs either 400, 800, 1200, or 1600 MS points

Can only buy in quantities of 500, 1000, or 2000 MS points

THIS WAS A CONSCIOUS DECISION.

They did fix it though.

 

[V00DOO]

I cooked the 2 hotdogs for breakfast with my eggs.
