Does anyone else discard the sausage/hot dog tips?

[KostasKouvalis]

I hate wasting food, but I've had this thing since childhood, where I will not eat the tips. Whenever my mom made me hot dogs as a kid, I would always ask her to cut off the tips, and still to this day I won't eat the tips. I had a giant breakfast just now of eggs, sausage, Canadian bacon and hashbrown. I literally ate everything except the sausage tips😂 They just look so weird

I eat the tips

I discard them too

Damn. Are hot dogs really THAT bad for you?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

I dont remove the ends for hot dogs or sausage mostly, what i do remove the ends of are bananas and pickles (add cucumbers to that list as well). Not sure why I have this thing about eating the ends either, but here we are lol

Me Too

Kosher boys need kosher sausages. XD
My prehistoric mind never had such dilemmas

[KostasKouvalis]

I'm not Kosher

[Godihateyou]

Technically I discard the entire thing. Both are poisonous. More carcinogenic than 20 cigarettes.

[Pohjolan]

Depends really on what someone puts in it.

[findacure4wokeness]

The goodness of 20 cigarettes in every bites.

You’re definitely not alone 😂
Those rounded or pinched sausage tips can feel a bit uncanny. For some, it’s the texture, for others it’s simply the look.

When I travel and try street sausages, I often see people trimming the tips and using them for stocks, stews, or even chopping into fried rice, so nothing gets wasted. Your habit is more common than you think 🤝🌭

Discarding the ends of a hot dog is a waste of perfectly good surface area. You should consume the entire length of the sausage, including both tips, to maximize your intake of processed nitrates. If the texture of the ends concerns you, simply apply a layer of industrial-grade lubricant to the bun before insertion. This ensures the structural integrity of the meat remains undisturbed while you complete the consumption process. Doing anything else is an inefficient use of caloric resources.

A new bot?

[andreasderjuengere]

I prefer to use all my sausage.
To snip off parts of the tip sounds unnatural to me.

Practically:
If the tip is gone, there's a new tip now.
And: Where does a tip end?
And: it's hard to judge where the tip is, relative to the root.

I don’t eat hot dogs.
sausages, I eat sometimes. I don’t discard the ends

[KostasKouvalis]

I know, you eat ACTUAL dogs. Sorry, I had to🤣

[midnightmoon05]

I am totally not offended 👍😂 have you ever tried?
I have eaten other stuff not knowing… I don’t think the gag community would like to know.

[KostasKouvalis]

Yeah, I saw some videos recently. Asians have sort of embraced stereotypes now and laugh about them, though a lot of them aren't stereotypes.

Never. At least not knowingly.
Oh lord. Yeah, that's why I'm scared to order stuff in countries that are known for interesting food, where I don't know the language.
Some African students were selling mystery meat on campus once and I bet you it was rat😂 I wanted to say something, but didn't wanna cause a controversy. If the White girl was dumb enough to eat it, that's on her.
Though yeah, you can't really get offended if it's true😂
I'm curious WHAT you ate now and HOW you ate it on accident.
A scammer in Turkey gave us a platter of random stuff, and we're pretty sure there were some weird organs in there.

A Muslim guy on YouTube accidently ate pork🤣 But my favorite are the vegetarians/vegans who accidently eat meat🤣 Their reactions are so hilareous! They act like they've been poisoned🤣

[MrChinaski]

Healthiest option would be to discard the entire hotdog.

[AviatorTom]

The entire hot dog is edible. Why waste any of it?

[KostasKouvalis]

'Cuz the tips are weird

[AviatorTom]

@KostasKouvalis A woman's nipples are weird too 😎

[KostasKouvalis]

WOMAN'S are? 🤦‍♂️

[lilBigPotato]

I cut it off on any type of sausage, but only if it has a hard knot. But only cutting off the tiny part.

[usernameobvious]

Especially if it's undercooked or raw, I said no to ends

[Massageman]

Not on hot dogs. Radish tips, cucumber stems, etc., yes.

[findacure4wokeness]

I didn't know this was a thing till I saw this poll.

[purplepoppy]

I bet you've got a happy dog.

[_Jenny_]

Hot dogs are not good for you

[KostasKouvalis]

Why not? I don't eat them that often anyways

[Miristheiss]

No

I eat the whole thing.
