JeffreyMcCollum Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Got a pack of mini hot dogs today at Tesco, not the cheep ones, heated them and bit in only to get a mouth full of plastic, Why do hot dogs have condoms on them ? Never did back home. peel and eat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman34014 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Yes; really weird isn't it. I hate having to peel every sausage before heating it and just don't understand why they have to wrap them individually. Wifey doesn't know the answer but just says they've always been like it.

Boyce Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 This is thailand, all types of sausages have to be covered . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthurwait Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) It's because they are too cheap to use skins. Edit: or do they have them as well ? Edited August 17, 2012 by arthurwait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Are they ribbed? I hear ribbed feel better, when you swallow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanKlaasen Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 It's because they are too cheap to use skins. Edit: or do they have them as well ? Almost correct. In Thailand they use plastic because the skin is proccessed and sold seperately. Keep in mind that those large sausages on the street bbq are also plastic covered,which isn't removed just melted into the meat.Aroy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennedy Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) CP sells small smoked sausages actually like a small frankfurter.They don't sell them in stores. Only sell them on the 3rd. of the month in booths.My wife buys them at the Rangsit market.Much better than a hot dog,no plastic and have casings. about 330bht for a 1kilo bag.
