Ketchup?
On a hot dog?
Disgusting. Mustard is the only suitable condiment for a hot dog.
I avoid eating either one from some vendor. Make my own or bring power bars.
If they’re on the grill, one of each will do.
“I eat hot dog sliced up with my eggs for breakfast at times”
I prefer chorizo with my eggs.
The comparison begins with assumptions of about what is them. Since I use 93% lean hamburger that could throw things off.
Oh, and I put a couple pieces of cheddar cheese in there just to hold things together.
Hamburgers, duh.
That said, I still love a good “mystery meat” hot dog! You just don’t want to know how (and from what) that sausage was made...
Who puts an egg on top of their hamburger?
Same here, some diced red onions, habaneros and a touch of Kidder’s hot BBQ sauce.
No bun, with home made oven fries.
As in a typical candy has fewer calories than either—and so must be the better choice than either?
“Who puts an egg on top of their hamburger?”
Sounds east coast.
The kind of person who would put ketchup on a hot dog.
Habaneros are a bit much for me. Maybe a jalapeño slice or two if I feel up to it…
It’s the nitrates and other preservatives, falling under the ‘processed food’ label.
This should be basic ‘food 101’ knowledge for anyone seeking better health.
Long ago, when I was recovering my health and making that choice to avoid all processed foods, I decided to make hamburgers for the week on my grill for lunch. One day during that week, I had a thought and disassembled the burger - made of 1/3 lb lean ground beef, romaine lettuce, onion, 2 tomato slices and cheese - and put the components in a bowl.
It was a reality check: I’d made a salad on 2 slices of whole grain bread with protein.
No different than a purposeful salad, a burger is only as healthy as what you put on it (same for pizza).
(True story: I lost 55 pounds during my health recovery eating a healthful breakfast, burgers for lunch and pizza for dinner...all homemade but, as I’ve stated prior, ‘eating clean’ is not panacea. It is merely one step of the ‘awakening’ for those who are diseased)
Yes indeed. I haven’t eaten a hot dog in decades. Don’t like them and who knows what they’re made of. Too salty too. — a real health menace.
That too, but the dog is healthier because it has fewer calories just kills me.
It’s the bun that kills you.
Hotdogs have salt and other chemicals.
Burgers have what you add to them
But it’s the bun that kills you!
The one YOU DO NOT EAT. Simple.
Here is the unspoken part.
Most people are satisfied eating a single quarter-pound hamburger, but a 1.5 oz hot dog will not satisfy. Most people will eat two hot dogs versus as single hamburger.
Therefore, any nutritional comparisons should double the hot dog's amounts.

I like to stick to a balanced diet. Burger in one hand, dog in the other.
