May 2012

We were eating fake hotdogs - I loved them (still not as good as those Loma Linda ones in a can), but this was my husband's first time and he couldn't spit it out fast enough.

I guess they are an acquired taste. He asked how I could eat them and I said "Because not only are they tasty, but I know that there are no pig anuses or other mystery parts in it!"

That statement I think has stuck with him - he may never try those type of fake hotdogs (but there are many, many other types of link shaped meatless stuff - grain meat for example) but I don't think he is in a hurry for meat hotdogs anytime soon.
