Fast Franks!?!

It's official. Oscar Meyer has created the ultimate in food laziness.
Packaged hotdogs on a roll! Unwrap and nuke.

I look forward to the day they make a New/improved version!

For those of you who can't boil water or fight open a hotog bun, your
time to shine has arrived!

Geez...

I saw this commerical and thought it was the dumbest thing I ever saw.
Right up there with the prewrapped potatoes I saw for microwaving a few
years ago.

I've see hotdogs packaged in buns at the store...
I don't look twice at them.

That wouldn't work for me RATS! <g>

Take Hebrew National hot dogs, slice the long way almost in half, stuff with
high quality mild grated cheddar, then wrap in bacon, and place on griddle.
Once the hot dogs are done, put the appropriate amount of hot dog buns, and
brown them in the bacon drippings. EAT!!!

Now THERE you have a hot dog (well... it's no longer Kosher).

If they come out with something like that I might try it (but probably not).

I think the "boil in bag rice" is right up there with prewrapped potatoes.

I was eating those out of the automat machine at the
bowling alley 30 years ago. Oscar Mayer didn't create
them, it just branded one.

There are plenty of people who simply don't have the
concept of cooking down well enough to trust anything
that doesn't come already plated or doesn't have numbered
cartoon directions on the back.

At least rice made the proper way takes 20-30 minutes, so I can see the
benefits of an easily-prepared rice. They now have nuke-able rice in a
bag. I looked at it but didn't purchase it because it's terribly high
in salt, and all I could imagine was plastic-flavored rice.

I've seen those ads! Can you even believe it? Is the public *that*
retarded that they can't make a stiff enough dip to stay on a friggin'
cracker? I still shake my head when I see that commercial.

(laugh) I saw that. All I remember were crackers flying around
magic carpet style carrying a ton of dip. I guess they are meant
for hors d'oeuvres.

Hmm! On the plus side, the problem of the packages of hot dogs and hot
dog buns having a different number of items in them is solved!

Stan,

LOL! I thought about that. Just something about Old Oscar trying his hand
at making hotdog buns and the further pre-processing. But it's a kraft
company, so they've got that all figured out.

If I had to, I'd eat the Nathan's natural casing hotdogs. Oscar Mayer
always had the consistency of mush. I wanna be like Takeru Kobayashi!

Why don't I seem to have this problem? I used to, in years past. But now
the number of hot dogs and buns match up perfectly.

I can relate to this. Everytime I buy my men a package of condoms,
the number of condoms does not match the number of men I have sex
with.
Most of the time there are not enough condoms, so I got to put a
plastic baggie and rubber band on those guys.

Is the cost of packages of condoms included with the price of admission?

Yes, but from reading the bag there isn't any difference in time. So it
would seem the value is <nil>.

Trader Joe's sells a frozen USDA organic brown rice in a bag (in a three-
pack box). Each 2-cup bag takes three minutes in the microwave and is
sodium free. Delicious, imho. YMMV.

They're wearing them two and three at a time?

Sounds like a good idea, with you.

How about peanut butter & jelly in the same jar?

Imagine the drudgery of having to open 2 jars. And what happens if you
use up one or the other first?

And why were those microwaveable potatoes wrapped? I just stick a
potato in the micro and follow the instructions that came with the oven.

Peanut butter and jelly in the same jar has been around for at least 20
years, if not longer. I am not a peanut butter fan, but my sister loved
peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and that's the kind my mom would buy.

I agree. I buy that rice sometime. I also buy the Success or Uncle Ben's
rice in a bag. Why? Because I have trouble getting regular rice to come
out to the same consistency or texture all the time. The bagged rice
just cooks right every time and it does not need a special pot, nor does
it care if its overcooked slightly and the result has always worked well
for me, which is more than I can say for regular rice.

Much longer. I can remember it from the 70s. Probably
been around almost as long as PB&J has been popular
(there's a story that it was something the GIs in WW2 got
hooked on in some way, but that's always sounded vague
and apocryphal to me.)
