That's the link I clicked. I saw pretty pictures of hairy hot dogs
and bunch of a funny looking letters.

I'm sorry I gave you that impression by using those sophisticated
Italian words ending in "i'".

There's nothing wrong with it not being a gourmet meal. It's about
boiling the flavor out of perfectly good mystery-meat tube-steaks
and making them a tasteless pile of plop. When you could cook them
any other way and make them downright tasty.

I say grill the hot dogs and then bard with the cooked noodles.
Easy as that!
