NO, NO, NO...then they will split and shrivel...

Ball parks, concessions, almost anywhere you can buy a hotdog they are boiled as is the issue with all the weiner water...

Boiling is safe, just not as good as FIRE!!

Microwave is actually about the unsafest, because to get to bacteria killing temp the dog is obliterated into smithereens...

Microwave is nice in a pinch but need to set it exactly right or they are terrible. I will fry them over boiling.

But what about eating them raw? I like that once in a while :d

The owner of the IGA here said they aren't allowed to sell them anymore because someone MAY HAVE gotten sick from eating some last year.....He's pissed off too. Nothing he can do.

So someone got sick from putting a un-clean wiener in thier mouth??? Hmmmm who would have thought!

I was going to make a comment on that but I figured it might be a bad idea :p

But you could of phrased that a LOT worse.

This is the response I got from the email I sent to Sobeys (I'm kind of surprised they bothered). :

Thank you for taking the time to contact Sobeys West Consumer Response.

We greatly appreciate comments like yours to help us improve our services and offering.

With respect to your question about the removal of bulk wieners from our stores, after consultation with vendors and suppliers, Canadian food retailers have agreed to end the practice of selling bulk wieners due to issues that could arise as a result of the way the product is handled and sold in a bulk format. The safety of our customers is a priority for Sobeys we are complying with the agreement and will no longer sell wieners in the bulk format. However, we are looking for an alternative to replace this product.
