Why do hot dogs come in packs of 10 and hot dog buns come in a pack of 8?

Question

Now I'm stuck with two extra dogs and no buns!

Answer 1

Because you need 2 to stick in your ears when your husband yells at you while he's trying to get the barbecue up and running.

Answer 2

So you have two extra dogs to feed to your dog. Either that or it's a conspiracy by the hotdog and bun companies to make us buy an extra pack of 10 buns 8 of which were not going to use.

Answer 3

purely purchase 5 packs of canines, and four packs of buns. Then invite 39 associates over and you'd be fantastic. yet fairly, I desire I had a better answer for you, i've got been thinking this query myself for a while.

Answer 4

Standard hot dogs have always been 10 to the pound. Jumbo hot dogs are 8 to the pound.

Bakers don't like tens. They prefer dozens, or multiples of three and four, notably four, six, eight, and twelve. They are easier to package.

Answer 5

because the hot dog bun people think its funny

Answer 6

It's yet another conspiracy. They KNOW you'll have to buy 2 pkgs of hot dog buns, therefore, you spend more money.

Answer 7

It's for people like me. I use hotdogs for recipes other than eating inside of a bun. You can cut them up and put them in casseroles, for instance.

Answer 8

Make you ask this question?
always eat two without bun! like beanie weineees or in pancakes cut-up in slices...

Answer 9

i think it is because. when a person is cooking hot dogs. They always like to grab one and eat one cold. Then at least one more person comes and wants a cold one...

So this way... everything is equal.

Answer 10

Same reason we drive on parkways and park on driveways and a package sent by a ship is called cargo and sent by land a shipment... it's a crazy mixed up world!
