Eat up! Your cardiologist will like the extra $$$ they will earn and you may be doing your part to save SS by dropping off the rolls!

Does Costco sell packages of hot dogs? I thought it would be interesting to see how much their $1.50 hot dog would cost if I cooked it at home. I tried searching the costco.com website but could not find either hot dogs or buns.

At Sam's, purchasing a package of 1/4lb hot dogs and buns would work out to a cost of $1.30 per hot dog. Sam's and Costco both are losing money when they sell that for only $1.50. But, it gets you in the door and once you are there you'll find something else to buy too.

,FYI… Sam’s uses Nathan’s hot dogs in their food court. Same ones used in the 4th of July hot dog eating contest.

Speaking of the hot dog eating contest,, Takeru Kobayashi announced last week that he is retiring.

This is just some FYI.
To cut costs, Costco opened its own 400,000-square-foot poultry processing plant in Nebraska in 2019. The plant enables the company to manage the chickens from farm to production and ensures that the birds are grown to the correct size, typically around 3 pounds.

Would hate to live near that factory.

This doesn’t seem right

- the food court advertises 1/4lb hot dogs but it is unlikely the eating contest uses those larger dogs
- Nathan’s doesn’t appear to sell 1/4lb dogs
- why would Sam’s use Nathan’s when they sell their own brand?
- the info for the combo product specifically mentions the Member’s Mark frank

When Costco sold the Hebrew National hot dogs, I would get one very time I shopped there...

Now, with their own brand? Meh...
