There are some good hot dogs available, but yes, many are terrible and mushy. Nathans are pretty good, but I prefer Hebrew National.

I remember having an idea of what a hot dog was when I was a kid, and having all that get blown up when I had my first all-beef dog. There's just no comparison. The "blended" hot dogs usually have a mix of chicken, pork, turkey, and whatever animal fell into the vat. The beef dogs had...beef, and you could taste it.

It was then that I realized that what I really liked about the blended hot dogs was the taste of all the toppings (chili, mustard, and onions on just about anything tastes great).

The amazement at the discovery of beef dogs might have actually been secondary to what happened when I found out about these many years ago:

If you can't read the fine print, that's 40 calories per dog. And, they taste great...lots of beef flavor. They're not cheap (normally about $5.99 per pack of 7 at the Kroger near my house), but I keep an eye out for sales and stock up. I got a bunch of them for $3.99 right before the 4th, and I really wish I had just gone ahead and cleaned them out .
 
MURDER AT TESCO

Tired of constantly being broke and stuck in an unhappy marriage, a young husband decided to solve both problems by taking out a large insurance policy on his wife with himself as the beneficiary and then arranging to have her killed.

A 'friend of a friend' put him in touch with a strange, dark-side underworld figure who went by the name of 'Artie.' Artie explained to the husband that his going price for snuffing out a spouse was £10,000.

The husband said he was willing to pay that amount but that he wouldn't have any cash on hand until he could collect his wife's insurance money. Artie insisted on being paid at least something up front, so the man opened his wallet, displaying the single pound coin that rested inside.
Artie sighed, rolled his eyes and reluctantly agreed to accept the pound as down payment for the dirty deed.

A few days later, Artie followed the man's wife to the local Tesco Supermarket. There, he surprised her in the produce department and proceeded to strangle her with his gloved hands. As the poor unsuspecting woman drew her last breath and slumped to the floor, the manager of the produce department stumbled unexpectedly onto the murder scene. Unwilling to leave any living witnesses behind, ol' Artie had no choice but to strangle the produce manager as well.

However...
Unknown to Artie, the entire proceedings were captured by the hidden security cameras and observed by the shop's security guard, who immediately called the police. Artie was caught and arrested before he could leave the premises.

Under intense questioning at the police station, Artie revealed the whole sordid plan, including his unusual financial arrangements with the hapless husband who was also quickly arrested.

The next day in the National press, the headline declared...

(You're going to hate me for this...)
