Guests are saying
Nathan's hot dogs are praised for their great taste, quality, and perfect fit for buns. Many guests enjoy them grilled or boiled, and they are a favorite for family meals and barbecues. However, some guests have noted that the hot dogs have become smaller and skinnier over time, which has led to some disappointment.

Not living up to your advertising
I bought a pack of bun length Franks they're actually not bun length, they're much more narrower than your product used to be. for the money I pay, I am no longer be going to be buying your product

Used to be our family go-to, but no longer
We bought a lot of these hot dogs over the years for cookouts and tailgates. Unfortunately, Nathan's has now removed "Gluten Free" from the labelling with no warning and no explanation. Therefore, we no longer buy them. With 2 members of our family having Celiac Disease, we now buy another brand which is still gluten free.

Flavour excellent - watch the salt
If you are on a low sodium (or normal sodium diet) you need to watch these. Almost 800mg of sodium in one frank. Two hot dogs is your daily max for sodium. Flavour is excellent and these are cheap

My GO TO Dog!
I’ve tried many brands but I’m my opinion Nathan’s have the best flavor for adults. Others are bland and tasteless by comparison. They are a slim weiner, yes, but that gives them more surface area for grill marks and easier grilling. If you’re still hungry, enjoy two or three!

Gluten free???
We used to always get these for the grandkids with celiac, but they are no longer labeled gluten free. Has something changed? Are they safe for celiacs?

Pleasantly surprised
I decided to try your skinless beef hotdogs . These are so much better than the brand I usually buy and they were the same price ,but the taste and texture of your brand was far superior. I normally buy hotdogs for my child because I never really liked the taste until I tried these.

Best Hotdog
I was introduced these hotdogs by a family member from out of state. I had never tried them before just because I always purchased Bar-S. Nathan's is hands down the better dog. I have not purchased any other brand for the last 6 years or more.

Shrinks
After microwaving the hot dogs shrink about 30% and were in a puddle of water. Back to Koegels for me.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I completely understand how frustrating that must be! I want to assure you that our franks typically don’t shrink excessively. To help enhance your cooking experience, I’ve included some microwave warming instructions that I hope will make a difference. **Cooking Instructions** 1. **Prep your frank.** Wrap it in a paper towel and place it in the microwave, or put the hot dog on a plate and cover it with a paper towel. The paper towel will help trap the moisture, allowing your frank to cook up nice and juicy. 2. **Cook on high.** Start with 40 to 50 seconds for one frank. If you’re cooking more, simply add about 20 seconds for each additional frank. 3. **Check in.** Once the time is up, take a moment to check if they are warmed through. If they need a little more time, feel free to microwave them for an extra 30 seconds and check one again. You can repeat this step until your hot dog reaches the perfect temperature. 4. **Carefully remove your frank.** You’re almost there! Just a friendly reminder to be careful when taking your hot dog out, as the trapped steam can be quite hot. 5. **Serve.** Top it just the way you love and enjoy every bite! **Cooking more than one?** If you’re heating multiple franks, lay them side by side on a plate and cover them with a paper towel. Just remember to leave a little space in between them so they can cook evenly. Enjoy your meal!

Nathan’s is yummy in the tummy!
Anyway I cook these - fried or boiled, they always taste great. They are the BEST beef hot dogs in the grocery store. We have to save a few bites for the pups, too, because they KNOW what we are having! Can’t resist those big puppydog eyes.

Great hotdogs, packaging needs improvement
I love the dogs, nice flavor and I like that they're skinless. But I have one knock and its on the packaging. Please add a tear strip, or a flap or something to make it easier to open. I have to use a knife to cut the package open.

Ridiculously thin!
Great flavor but super small/thin. Bun length but not worth it if they are going to cheap out and make a nonsense hot dog.
