Honestly even real hot dogs are so processed and far from actual meat so it doesn't seem to be all that hard to create them with plants

[@shaymorcormick8743]

Kinda why I think it was a good idea to start selling them at fast food joints with the impossible burger. Fast food burgers are already so low quality and full of fillers it is already a low bar to clear. An impossible burger next to a regular McDonald's or burger King burger is pretty comparable but put it up against a real grilled burger and it isn't even in the same ball park.

After seeing this I was intrigued, but I can NOT find the Field Roast dogs in stores. However... my mother-in-law got us "veggie dogs" from Morning Star, and being vegan for many years, I stopped bothering to look at Morning Star since they almost always included dairy, eggs, or both. I was blown away! Not only are these vegan, they taste JUST like I remember real hot dogs tasting. I'm kind of bummed they weren't in this hot dog rank-a-thon Edit: I finally had the stadium dogs, and I can definitively say I prefer the Morning Star ones

IMHO, the perfect vegan “hot dog” would be to combine the taste of the Field Roast Stadium Dog and the texture of the Litelife Smart Dogs.

You mentioned liking Lightlife more than in the past. This might be because they're normally wheat-free, but for several months last year they silently started adding wheat gluten to the detriment of not only coeliacs' health but also the texture. They returned to the wheat-free recipe early this year I think, but when you tried it before it might have been the alt recipe

[@1029blue]

Thanks for mentioning that. I know they aren't officially gluten-free, but I (a celiac) had the Lightlife sausage when it didn't have wheat, and it was pretty good. I see that they removed the wheat again, but they are still not labeled gluten-free. I'll see if I might have them every once in a while.

My very first veggie dog (and probably fake meat in general) was in the early 1990s while at a neighbor's house who were SDA and attended service in Loma Linda, CA (we lived in the city next door). At the time I was too young to know what SDAs were about and more specifically the dietary elements of it and no one told me it was a veggie dog, so I just bit into it completely unaware and was completely repulsed at the unexpected flavor and texture. At first I thought it was spoiled food, then I started looking closer at it and could tell it wasn't meat but was still really confused as to what was going on. I really wonder if they were Loma Linda dogs, quite likely. In my memory, it looked almost kind of subtly green in the right light, but that may just be my kid brain imprinting a bad memory. Regardless, it very poorly colored my opinion of fake meat for a long time, but now as a vegan I think back on that memory in a different light.

the things is, these people are all being asked to be hyper aware of the flavor and everything so that they can give it a rating. if you randomly handed them any one of these (with the exception of upton) in a bun with some condiments, they'd have no problem with them and probably wouldn't even notice it was vegan.

@Sauce Stache, I haven't had Worthington/Loma Linda in a long time. Their faux ham, as of last year, still has egg whites. This canned was my favourite waaay back in 1988-91, but they need to be grilled, not boiled. Grilled, their skin bubbles and becomes snappy, and their taste and texture is great. But it's been over 30 years since I've found them in any store (I'm in Knoxville since late '93, Kalamazoo before then). As for the sweetness, remember, the Morningstar is used in their corndogs, which have a touch of sweetness in their cornbread, which is a touch controversial in "The South" (while "up North," nobody calls it, "The North," and we could all give af). The corndogs, regular or mini, are amazing. My Omni husbands loved/love those. Btw, in the few ratings videos I've done, years ago (see my puny YT channel), I used a 5x5 point scale, with taste/texture, usefulness as intended, nutrition, cost, and allergens as my bases. The highest rating is, then, 25, easily scalable to a letter grade. I usually only did two products at a time, not always the same kind of thing. If I do more, now that there are so many more products, I'll follow your lead, and do comparable products. Feel free to borrow my point scale, gratis. I'd be honoured. P.P.S. My baby, Alistair, age 14, just died last night, so I'm distracting myself. Thanks for your quality content. For a few minutes, I didn't feel so gd alone.

we always get the large light life dogs. I like mine with vegan mayo and ketchup. The smaller ones I like to cut in half and make hot dog sandwich. definitely going to try those stadium dogs.

As a long time vegan i think updog is pretty good i had them a couple times. However field roast is my favorite. I really love the mexican chipotle sausages. I usually dont care if it taste like the real thing

If you haven't already, you gotta try the Sweet Earth jumbo dogs! I've tried a lot of vegan dogs and those wipe the floor with everything else imo

[@orchid0814]

I agree!!

You should totally try Worthington Leanies Plant Forward Deli Dog (Frozen Section)

Big Franks have always been a favorite of mine. But they don't taste like a meat hotdog nor snap. They're not for everyone. I tried the Field Roast after seeing this presentation and I have to agree, they are pretty good. My wife makes something called Connie Islands with the Big Franks, stores them in the freezer and brings them out and pops them into the oven still wrapped up in foil.

This man's obsessed making plant based food.

Field Roast makes a fantastic roast beef thing and a holiday breaded roast. Unfortunately I guess sales were bad so they only sell it during Thanksgiving and Christmas now.

Going to have to go look for field roast. Love their sausages. I think if Albertsons/Safeway doesn't have it Natural Grocers is the only place left to check. Loma Linda is the og. I remember buying it for my vegan FIL.
