Not sure I can bring myself to try one of these but surprisingly the reviews I've read have been overwhelmingly positive & supposedly sales are brisk!

The worst hot dogs are the typical store-bought Oscar Mayer brand or similar that Mom threw in a skillet or a pot of boiling water for three minutes. Might as well eat a bologna sandwich.
I tried the Oscar Mayer turkey dogs today because there is far far less fat that drips when in the microwave. But it tastes way way more bland than the beef ones.

I agree it is smaller and tastes worse, but IIRC their deal was two hot dogs and drink (which includes lingonberry drink) for $1.50.

There are always huge numbers of elderly Chinese people eating that deal. Those guys appreciate value.

ikea hotdogs actually used to be pretty good like a year ago. they changed supplier/source or something recently and now their hotdogs are just pure shit.

fuck you ikea.

Well today I went & did it ... had a BOGO coupon for BK dogs so I took the plunge and snagged a couple with chili, mustard & onion.

The word I would use to describe them is bland. Not good and not particularly bad either just bland. (Same goes for the chili)

Would eat again if somebody else was buying but not if I had to pay for them.

Rolled out with Apple-like hoopla, it barely holds its own against your average dirty-water dog from a street stand.
Probably tastes like crap.... TASTELESS GARBAGE like everything else they now sell!!

If you people think Burger King hot dogs are disappoint, come up to Canada and go to a Harvey's... they also have hot dogs. I was not very impressed last I had one years ago.
