If only NASCAR would sell $70 hot dogs in the concession they wouldn't have these cancer scares.

INDIANAPOLIS -- A nonprofit group has erected a billboard aimed at NASCAR fans visiting Indianapolis for the Brickyard 400 this weekend, with a message that the hot dogs they are eating aren't good for them.
The billboard depicts hot dogs as though they are in a pack of cigarettes that has a skull and crossbones on it.
"Warning: Hot dogs can wreck your health," the billboard chides NASCAR attendees.
The billboard was purchased by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. The group said more than 1.1 million hotdogs were served in the concession stands at the Indianapolis 500 last year.

I want them to prove to me it isn't from the mustard packets...
Knowing some NASCAR fans, I believe that any attempt to manipulate them in this way will only increase their desire to eat a hot dog.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine sounds like they are also the Physicians Committee for Obama.
Yes, folks. There really are people in the world who get off on telling you what to do.
Besides, what do they know if they can’t even make a profit?
Co-worker and friend worked at a meat packing plant while in high school. Part of his job was to gather the unsavory parts that were ground up to make bologna and hot dogs. He would smile and say “There is a reason there is a pucker at both ends of a hot dog”.
This total BS. Telling a NASCAR fan to stop eating hot dogs will get you as far as telling them to stop smoking, drinking beer and gambling.
I would bet my left ***** that every last one of them cheered when Obama signed Obamacare...
I'd like to wreck mine with sauerkraut & spicy mustard, please!
LOL
Hadn’t heard that one
As usual we ought to be told how the studies were carried out. Were people polled, after the fact of a colorectal cancer diagnosis, about their diets? Or were volunteers fed scientifically measured diets for a long period of time and their health status followed? In the first example, people might be prone to understate the fatty and other purportedly unhealthy food they ate, making their health look more sensitive to these foods than it really was. Also, gobbling down a bunch of dogs at a sporting event doesn’t equate to a steady diet of them. Even rednecks know that it’s better to eat roast road kill than to turn it into sausage.
If only NASCAR would sell $70 hot dogs in the concession they wouldn't have these cancer scares.
Wanna bet there are more than a few fatties involved with “ Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine”?
They shouldn't fret. If the little doggies are as bad as they claim, a large percent of those consumers will be dead or to ill to buy hot dogs this year.
Nothing better than pulling into a Lowe’s parking lot on Saturday morning and smelling hotdogs.
They just sound like a leftist group trying to tell everyone what to eat.

Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, another agenda driven organization with a nice sounding name.
