All of the talk about hot dogs made me crave one, so I had 2 Sonic hot dogs yesterday…. Those each took 35 DAYS off of my life. I have now done that 2 times.. all in one trip: My first time and my last time. Nasty things, those.
Really, how did the researchers arrive at that figure for eating one hot dog? Did they actually get volunteers in the laboratory who had a life expectancy of only one hour left, and they had some volunteers eat a hot dog and those that did died 25 minutes later, but those that didn’t have a hot dog died 60 minutes later?
2 old guys in heaven living it up. Smoking, drinking, eating whatever they wanted. One says to the other "Ya know, if we didn’t listen to our doctors we could’ve been doing this 2 years ago.
The vast majority of “Studies” can vary the outcome, all depending on who is paying for it. One day coffee will kill you,(paid for by a tea company) the next day it extends your life(paid for by a coffee company)
If that’s the case, it’s worth the lost time. Man cannot live by celery (metaphor for totally healthy food) alone. Please forgive my borrowing from scripture…..

Contrary to this real report I heard that Betty White eats a hot dog and fries for lunch almost every day. It doesn’t seem to be hurting her any.

I know what I like and I like what I eat. I don’t eat what I don’t like and I don’t give a bleep about consequences.

Do low-fat Turkey hot dogs only take 35 seconds off your life?

Not me. I eat faster than that.

This must be heaven
Tonight I crossed the line
You must be the hot dog vendor
I thought I might never find
And at last it’s the real meat
Or close enough to pretend
See that hot dog shine

How much is taken off for fresh baked coconut cream pie with coconut sprinkled on top? I could make a whole meal out of one of those!

That 35 minute rule only effects people who have the deficient hot dog gene.

Or that you’d have 30 more years left if you hadn’t eaten all those hot dogs.

I like mine with mustard, onions and sauerkraut. It sounds like a study with a desired ending. Also, it sounds more like non sense.
