hotdogs for dinner for how many days in a row?

[Mojoshog]

I like them if they are grilled and mustard onions are available.  Usually don't eat them more than once a week and sometimes not for months.

I don’t eat hot dogs because they are processed food. Someone even mentioned about ramen noodles. I don’t recommend them because they are coated with wax. Long term consumption of processed foods or ramen can cause serious health challenges. Instead of saving money, we become ill. We end up paying most of our hard earned dollars to doctors. 

I prefer to buy bulk items like somen and soba noodles (up to 3 lbs), and brown rice (25 lbs) which lasted me a very long time. On the side I just buy a variety of vegetables, tofu, fruits, and fresh herbs. I also make my own bread which saved me a lot of money too. Very easy on the budget.

Hotdogs are great, especially with chili and mustard. But we never eat them more than one day; never 2 days in a row.

I eat more hot dogs than i use to sometimes twice a day. When prices go up we all can't help that.

I don't eat hotdogs like I used to, maybe once or twice every three months. In fact today I had a hot dog. The last time before today was probably this past July or August.

Hot dogs and ramen noodles are good examples of processed foods to avoid.  Ramen flavor packets have MSG, another good thing to avoid.

There's a lot of good advice here on healthy, economic meal choices.

Personally I'll make up a thick and chunky marinara sauce in my crockpot and serve it over whole wheat noodles.  I like eggs for breakfast, but if I need to stretch them out I'll make up some pinto beans, in the crockpot, with small chunks of seasoning bacon, garlic, cumin, liquid smoke, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce, then dress them with chopped raw onion, shredded cheese, hot sauce and a fried egg on top.  For variety I'll sometimes make bean burritos.  A big crockpot full of homemade soup can be comforting as well as cheap.  I'll save the liquid from things like canned mushrooms, or steamed veggies, in a freezer container and use that for stock, add the pulp from the juicer, then add what ever fresh ingredients and voila, comfort food.

I get sick of hot dogs pretty quickly. I prefer to live on sandwiches.

  don't want to think about hotdogs right now. Just getting over food poisoning from eating a hotdog from the gas stations store. I missed watching the new years come to cuz I was too sick to watch anything that moved w/out getting deathly ill!LOL!

[natashaspy]

we do hotdogs a couple of times a month.  depending on the brand you buy its not always cheap though.  my mom loves nathans, but depending on where you buy them they run anywhere from 3-6 dollars a pack!

Hot Dogs can be used in a variety of ways with different pastas, it all depend on your imagination.

  potatoes with pre-cooked summer sausage mixed in makes a cheap and filling meal. greenbeans and new potatoes is another cheap filling meal and of course beans and cornbread

There is a hot dog diet out there where you lose five pounds in a week of eating nothing but hot dogs!  I have also tried the Mayo clinic diet (the best at losing twnety pounds in two weeks), the ice cream diet for three days, the soup diet for a week and the potatoe diet for a week.  Hot dogs are probably your cheapest bet but the least healthiest.  I stopped by the grocery store today and picked up four chicken *bleep*, a box of rice, bag of vegetables and sriracha sauce which is a more balanced approach to dieting and comes out to about a dollar a serving...it just takes a little extra time to prepare.  It is somewhat tastier as well.

Casseroles are also a good alternative and you could usually get ingredients pretty cheap. You can cook the casserole and than separate it into servings and freeze them until your ready to eat them, then just reheat and walla!
