i shudder to think what is in dollar store hot dogs
70% ground chicken meat with cure and salt added.
One bin/combo has.......
2000 lbs ground chicken
140 lbs salt
4 bins into a 10,000 lb mixer........add 5 shovels of beef fat, 3 shovels of pork back fat, 500 lbs of ice, rest of dry spices and salt + Sorbitol binder.
There you have a 10,000 pound batch for cheap shitty John Morrell hot dogs, P2564 USDA number. Same dogs go into 20+ different packages, cost was under .35 a lb, market price was .99 for a 12 oz. package.
Below 50% poultry the package has EST 296 on the label, same plant at 801 East Kemper in Cincinnati, Ohio.
I did 14+ years there, April 1985 till Sept 1999.
