- Tyler Rouse, a pathologist at Stratford Hospital (Ontario, Canada) recently discovered that most hot dog meat is just ‘tubes of fat’.
- Rouse and his colleague analyzed store-bought and ballpark vendor hot dogs under lab slides.
- They concluded that most hot dog meat “consisted primarily of fat globules, with very little skeletal muscle”.
- To make matters worse, they also discovered some plant material in the hot dog meat, most likely derived from the animals’ colons.
