A summer staple in many households, hot dogs are often thrown on
the grill without any thought about what is actually in them or where
they came from. But the truth is hard to swallow.
First,
hot dogs are mainly made of animal products called “trimmings,” a
purposely vague word. Trimmings come from a bunch of different animals,
including turkeys, cows, and pigs. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations,
trimmings consist of animal skin, blood, liver, head meat, animal feet,
“lower-grade” meat, such as fatty tissues, and “other edible slaughter
by-products.” Let’s repeat: other edible slaughter by-products—again, purposely vague. But hey, head and feet meat get labeled. What could be more disgusting than that?
These trimmings may also contain a lot of bacteria,
so the animal parts are precooked in temperatures ranging from 150 to
190 degrees Fahrenheit. This helps not only to kill some bacteria but
also to separate the meat from the head and feet bones.
If that’s not enough to make you gag, I have two words for you: “meat batter.”
Essentially, all this precooked animal flesh is thrown into a grinder
so it resembles hamburger. Once that’s done, chicken trimmings are added
with water, seasonings, and corn syrup, and it’s all churned until it
becomes “batter.”
