Dogs may be low on the totem pole, but they're not all created equal. If you're going to buy Bar S you might as well just pick up a few cans of Vienna Sausage and drown it in whatever the fuck you use to make your "food" palatable.

They're all relatively the same. It's not like American cheese where you can get anything ranging from deli stuff made straight from good cheddar with emulsifiers and unmeltable carbonizing yellow-colored slop. The FDA has a bit tighter regulations on this garbage tube that you're just going to drown in condiments anyway.

Also, you're a garbage person if you're not just buying a hot dog from a vendor or making them at a cook out. If you're doing it for a regular weeknight meal, then you need to reevaluate your life choices.

I used to make grocery store print advertisements, and this one place made me blast Bar-S all over the page. I thought it was pretty overkill with that alone, but then I read the whole package images and its the same shit, hah. "AMERICA'S FAVORITE"... really? I don't think it is. "Only the best is branded Bar-S". The best at/of what, exactly? There are definitely better options. "Quality Taste Value". What the fuck does that even mean?!

red pepper flake to, to taste

drain 1 can of the beans

You can also make dogs with toppings. For chili dogs a can of your favorite chili, *finely* chopped onion, and cheddar. From there you can do bbq bacon w/ onions, or hot peppers and mustard. Up to you to make a good dog.
