They served it under the name, "Winky Dinks". Yeezus!
However, somebody at Pillsbury must have suffered through something similar and came up with a recipe where you wrap one or two of those triangular-shaped "Crescent" bits of dough around a hot dog (preferrably a Koegel's, of course!) and bake that. That is surprisingly not bad.
At least nobody is claiming that the quarter-pound alleged hot dog they serve at Costco's along with a big old soda for a buck-fifty is anything remotely close to good. That thing is a tube of gas, just waiting to hit your gut before the gas is released. Nasty!

I make that very claim. Could live on em. As to those cheese-like slices, can't count the number of weenies straight from the fridge with that very yellow slice as the "bun" that I've conveniently consumed! Heck, that stuff has *already* been cooked! Why would one require *further* cookage??
Now, I *do* have to admit to sometimes varying the shaping of said wrap. Oh, and a frozen hot dog straight from the freezer goes down little differently from a frozen Snickers bar. That cooking stuff is a *lot* of unnecessary work, seems to *me* - not to *mention* zero cleanup. Now I'm gonna have to ponder that "not to mention" cliche and how that never seems to prevent said "mention".
