Are hot dogs on your menu that Memorial Day? whether so, you’ll be joined by billions of others who will start scarfing down dogs beginning that weekend.

About seven billion hot dogs will be consumed amidst Memorial Day and Labor Day, according to the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council. that means that roughly 818 hot dogs will be eaten every moment during the summer. That’s a lot, considering the average annual consumption is 20 billion.

I’m not a big fan of the hot dog, myself. For one, I’m never really certain from what the things are made. moment, I don’t love all the fat that comes packed into each modest serving — one Ballpark beef frank contains 16 grams of fat, six grams of it from the saturated fat family. Hot dogs just are not my food of choice. Many society love them, though.
