The Best Plant-Based Hot Dogs in the US
Hot dogs: flavor-filled tubes of goodness paired perfectly with ball games, barbecues, and beers. You can eat them on some plain ass buns, pile on basic toppings like mustard, ketchup and relish, or you can be real extra and throw on some chili… and if you’re feelin’ crazy - guacamole or mac n cheese. Whatever kind of hot dog you like, we hope for your sake (and the planet) that it’s a plant-based one.
Why Plant-Based Hot Dogs Are Better For You
Hot dogs of any meat variety begin with trimmings: "The raw meat materials used for precooked-cooked products are lower-grade muscle trimmings, fatty tissues, head meat, animal feet, animal skin, blood, liver and other edible slaughter by-products." (Source)
Hot dogs and other processed meats like bacon, sausage, and deli meats cause cancer. In 2018 The World Health Organization classified processed meats as a known carcinogen, something that causes cancer. (Source)
Why Plant-Based Hot Dogs Are Better For The Planet
We can’t halt climate change without decreasing the demand for meat by as much as 90% according to the International Journal of Science. (Source)
