Vegan sausages and hotdogs are like the only plant based alternatives that taste like the real thing because 90% of the flavor is just the seasonings you use anyway. Use the same seasonings, find the right texture (mushrooms and breading work well), and you’ve got a good plant-based sausage or hotdog.
The problem is those same additives that make a hotdog what it is, are the ones that make it horrible for your health. Let’s not get close enough to hot dog to make it equally bad for us

I’m not even vegan, btw!

I said seasonings. I mean, sure, too much salt is bad; so just don’t use a fuckton of it.
Why not? The seasonings are what makes it taste like a hotdog and I’m not eating a hotdog because it’s healthy. Let people enjoy things.
Isn’t the main health concern due to the nitrite from the curing salts? If there’s no meat to cure, there’s no need for curing salts.
