Its the bloody marketing peolpe getting together with the sales people and thinking up inventive new ways of ripping us off, think about it, the only way you can even the numbers up is to get 5 packs of buns and 6 cans of hotdogs - so you end up with 60 of each GRRRRRRRRRRR and we all get screwed - every time because who wants 60 bloody hot dogs? exactly - NO ONE DOES so we buy one of each and waste 2 buns. Lets firebomb the local Tesco - i blame them.
And they play annoying christmas music too loud.
And they have divs walking around with santa hats on - i'd like to ram their 'happy to help' badges where the sun doesn't shine.
And breathe................

Buy 12 packs of hotdogs & 10 packs of buns & you've got 120 of each. Then invite loads of mates round, have a barbecue & hey presto - no more problem!!!

that Q became component of a humorous e mail circulating on the internet referred to as "in basic terms in united states..." (between different weird and wonderful, illogical issues) , which will answer the question... might desire to be the grasping foodstuff industry's ideas-set to purchase extra to pair them up: 4 packs of hotdogs and 5 8-%. of buns etc... which might make experience thinking the undeniable fact that hotdogs are oftentimes served in a BBQ placing, summer season backyard events etc.. merely like the .ninety 9 pricing, or toys placed interior the cereal field, 20% extra (yet once you evaluate the fee to an popular length, the fee went up 20percentas nicely), it is all merchandising and consumerism... i ask your self whether now with the hot "foodstuff disaster" hype it is en style, we would replace our techniques of residing, buying etc..

You ought to watch 'Father of the Bride'. There is a scene in this film regarding hotdogs & rolls that was made just for you.

"think of it as a "Buy 10, get 2 free" offer...you usually don't eat hotdogs except with hotdog buns (unless you're on a diet), but you can eat hotdog buns with so many other things ;)

So the markets will force you to buy more hot dogs and buns until you have an equal amount of hot dogs AND buns

actually hot dog packages come in packs of 10 and hot dog buns come in packages of 8. Why? That's a good question!

I think the hot dog manufacturers are just stingier than the bun bakers. Just kidding. I think it's a marketing ploy! You hate the waste the buns, so you buy more dogs. Then, you have 6 more dogs and no buns, so you buy more buns..... and on and on and on....

That question was asked in the movie...bullet proof mook...Anyway.I think that is because we have tendency to eat more bread than meat. You're hungry,you could grab a piece of bread,but not a piece of meat.Human nature perhaps?.
