Hot dogs may be labeled “skinless,” which means that the casing has been removed after cooking. (Though the garlic and spices may also be organic, the main ingredient in any self-respecting hot dog is meat.)
Q. What is in a meatless hot dog?
A vegetarian hot dog is a hot dog produced completely from non-meat products. Unlike traditional home-made meat sausages, the casing is not made of intestine, but of cellulose or other plant based ingredients. The filling is usually based on some sort of soy protein, wheat gluten, or pea protein.
