is it okay to eat a hotdog without boiling it?

Answer 1

i heard it wasnt but i have been eating them cold since i was a child and im in my twenties now and it has never hurt me. but if your still unsure just do it every once in a while.

Answer 2

I'm diabetic so I have to watch my sugars including carbohydrates. I buy quality hot dogs with 1 or less grams of carbohydrates per dog. I use them for snacks and almost always eat them uncooked. I have been doing so for 5 or 6 years and I have never had any sort of problem that I could attribute to the hot dogs.

So as far as I am concerned the short answer is YES, it is okay.

Answer 3

yep. Hot Dogs are pre-cooked. Boiling or heating them up is just because a lot of people prefer them cooked.

Answer 4

Yes, if it is a normal packaged hot-dog and not one you bought on the street in Germany that is uncooked. Most dogs are pre-cooked.

Answer 5

Think of everything that a hot dog is made out of...now think about eating it.

Answer 6

It is for me. Either raw since I was a kid, and now I just nuke it for 23 seconds. It's processed and cooked already, so it's no biggee.

Answer 7

It is OK. All commercially prepared hot dogs are pre-cooked

Answer 8

yes......If the item is frozen or refrigerated, it usually has to be precooked unless stated on the box or bag.......I ate a hot dog today, and it was newked by the microwave

Answer 9

Hot dogs are fully cooked, so it isn't necessary to heat them up.

Answer 10

yes...good with ketchup too
they're already parboiled cooked to begin with...boiling them just warms them to finish
