Hot Dogs and Sausages: Health Benefits and Risks Explained

A Global Favorite Food Hot dogs and sausages are enjoyed worldwide in many cultures and countries. Whether grilled, steamed or fried - there are endless ways to prepare and enjoy these versatile meat products. Let's take a closer look at the history and varieties of hot dogs and sausages from around the world. The Origins of Hot Dogs and Sausages While the exact origins are unknown, historians believe sausages originated in ancient Greece and Rome where chopped or ground meats would be stuffed into intestines or stomach casings. The Chinese also claim to have created Hot Dogs And Sausage-like products as early as 1500 BC by stuffing meats into bamboo poles or plant leaves. In Germany in the 1600s, sausages really began to take shape and new recipes and varieties started emerging. The American hot dog can be traced back to German immigrants in the 1800s who brought their sausage-making skills with them.     Hot Dogs and Sausages  - https://www.patreon.com/posts/hot-dogs-and-128270168

No, “convenience” isn’t the problem

I'm touring my new, nationally bestselling novel The Bezzle! Catch me in CHICAGO (Apr 17), Torino (Apr 21) Marin County (Apr 27), Winnipeg (May 2), Calgary (May 3), Vancouver (May 4), and beyond!

Using Amazon, or Twitter, or Facebook, or Google, or Doordash, or Uber doesn't make you lazy. Platform capitalism isn't enshittifying because you made the wrong shopping choices.

Remember, the reason these corporations were able to capture such substantial market-share is that the capital markets saw them as a bet that they could lose money for years, drive out competition, capture their markets, and then raise prices and abuse their workers and suppliers without fear of reprisal. Investors were chasing monopoly power, that is, companies that are too big to fail, too big to jail, and too big to care:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/04/04/teach-me-how-to-shruggie/#kagi

The tactics that let a few startups into Big Tech are illegal under existing antitrust laws. It's illegal for large corporations to buy up smaller ones before they can grow to challenge their dominance. It's illegal for dominant companies to merge with each other. "Predatory pricing" (selling goods or services below cost to prevent competitors from entering the market, or to drive out existing competitors) is also illegal. It's illegal for a big business to use its power to bargain for preferential discounts from its suppliers. Large companies aren't allowed to collude to fix prices or payments.

But under successive administrations, from Jimmy Carter through to Donald Trump, corporations routinely broke these laws. They explicitly and implicitly colluded to keep those laws from being enforced, driving smaller businesses into the ground. Now, sociopaths are just as capable of starting small companies as they are of running monopolies, but that one store that's run by a colossal asshole isn't the threat to your wellbeing that, say, Walmart or Amazon is.

All of this took place against a backdrop of stagnating wages and skyrocketing housing, health, and education costs. In other words, even as the cost of operating a small business was going up (when Amazon gets a preferential discount from a key supplier, that supplier needs to make up the difference by gouging smaller, weaker retailers), Americans' disposable income was falling.

So long as the capital markets were willing to continue funding loss-making future monopolists, your neighbors were going to make the choice to shop "the wrong way." As small, local businesses lost those customers, the costs they had to charge to make up the difference would go up, making it harder and harder for you to afford to shop "the right way."

In other words: by allowing corporations to flout antimonopoly laws, we set the stage for monopolies. The fault lay with regulators and the corporate leaders and finance barons who captured them – not with "consumers" who made the wrong choices. What's more, as the biggest businesses' monopoly power grew, your ability to choose grew ever narrower: once every mom-and-pop restaurant in your area fires their delivery drivers and switches to Doordash, your choice to order delivery from a place that payrolls its drivers goes away.

Monopolists don't just have the advantage of nearly unlimited access to the capital markets – they also enjoy the easy coordination that comes from participating in a cartel. It's easy for five giant corporations to form conspiracies because five CEOs can fit around a single table, which means that some day, they will:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/04/18/cursed-are-the-sausagemakers/#how-the-parties-get-to-yes

By contrast, "consumers" are atomized – there are millions of us, we don't know each other, and we struggle to agree on a course of action and stick to it. For "consumers" to make a difference, we have to form institutions, like co-ops or buying clubs, or embark on coordinated campaigns, like boycotts. Both of these tactics have their place, but they are weak when compared to monopoly power.

Luckily, we're not just "consumers." We're also citizens who can exercise political power. That's hard work – but so is organizing a co-op or a boycott. The difference is, when we dog enforcers who wield the power of the state, and line up behind them when they start to do their jobs, we can make deep structural differences that go far beyond anything we can make happen as consumers:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/18/administrative-competence/#i-know-stuff

We're not just "consumers" or "citizens" – we're also workers, and when workers come together in unions, they, too, can concentrate the diffuse, atomized power of the individual into a single, powerful entity that can hold the forces of capital in check:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/04/10/an-injury-to-one/#is-an-injury-to-all

And all of these things work together; when regulators do their jobs, they protect workers who are unionizing:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/09/06/goons-ginks-and-company-finks/#if-blood-be-the-price-of-your-cursed-wealth

And strong labor power can force cartels to abandon their plans to rig the market so that every consumer choice makes them more powerful:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/10/01/how-the-writers-guild-sunk-ais-ship/

And when consumers can choose better, local, more ethical businesses at competitive rates, those choices can make a difference:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/07/10/view-a-sku/

Antimonopoly policy is the foundation for all forms of people-power. The very instant corporations become too big to fail, jail or care is the instant that "voting with your wallet" becomes a waste of time.

Sure, choose that small local grocery, but everything on their shelves is going to come from the consumer packaged-goods duopoly of Procter and Gamble and Unilever. Sure, hunt down that local brand of potato chips that you love instead of P&G or Unilever's brand, but if they become successful, either P&G or Unilever will buy them out, and issue a press release trumpeting the purchase, saying "We bought out this beloved independent brand and added it to our portfolio because we know that consumers value choice."

If you're going to devote yourself to solving the collective action problem to make people-power work against corporations, spend your precious time wisely. As Zephyr Teachout writes in Break 'Em Up, don't miss the protest march outside the Amazon warehouse because you spent two hours driving around looking for an independent stationery so you could buy the markers and cardboard to make your anti-Amazon sign without shopping on Amazon:

https://pluralistic.net/2020/07/29/break-em-up/#break-em-up

When blame corporate power on "laziness," we buy into the corporations' own story about how they came to dominate our lives: we just prefer them. This is how Google explains away its 90% market-share in search: we just chose Google. But we didn't, not really – Google spends tens of billions of dollars every single year buying up the search-box on every website, phone, and operating system:

https://pluralistic.net/2024/02/21/im-feeling-unlucky/#not-up-to-the-task

Blaming "laziness" for corporate dominance also buys into the monopolists' claim that the only way to have convenient, easy-to-use services is to cede power to them. Facebook claims it's literally impossible for you to carry on social relations with the people that matter to you without also letting them spy on you. When we criticize people for wanting to hang out online with the people they love, we send the message that they need to choose loneliness and isolation, or they will be complicit in monopoly.

The problem with Google isn't that it lets you find things. The problem with Facebook isn't that it lets you talk to your friends. The problem with Uber isn't that it gets you from one place to another without having to stand on a corner waving your arm in the air. The problem with Amazon isn't that it makes it easy to locate a wide variety of products. We should stop telling people that they're wrong to want these things, because a) these things are good; and b) these things can be separated from the monopoly power of these corporate bullies:

https://pluralistic.net/2022/11/08/divisibility/#technognosticism

Remember the Napster Wars? The music labels had screwed over musicians and fans. 80 percent of all recorded music wasn't offered for sale, and the labels cooked the books to make it effectively impossible for musicians to earn out their advances. Napster didn't solve all of that (though they did offer $15/user/month to the labels for a license to their catalogs), but there were many ways in which it was vastly superior to the system it replaced.

The record labels responded by suing tens of thousands of people, mostly kids, but also dead people and babies and lots of other people. They demanded an end to online anonymity and a system of universal surveillance. They wanted every online space to algorithmically monitor everything a user posted and delete anything that might be a copyright infringement.

These were the problems with the music cartel: they suppressed the availability of music, screwed over musicians, carried on a campaign of indiscriminate legal terror, and lobbied effectively for a system of ubiquitous, far-reaching digital surveillance and control:

https://pluralistic.net/2023/02/02/nonbinary-families/#red-envelopes

You know what wasn't a problem with the record labels? The music. The music was fine. Great, even.

But some of the people who were outraged with the labels' outrageous actions decided the problem was the music. Their answer wasn't to merely demand better copyright laws or fairer treatment for musicians, but to demand that music fans stop listening to music from the labels. Somehow, they thought they could build a popular movement that you could only join by swearing off popular music.

That didn't work. It can't work. A popular movement that you can only join by boycotting popular music will always be unpopular. It's bad tactics.

When we blame "laziness" for tech monopolies, we send the message that our friends have to choose between life's joys and comforts, and a fair economic system that doesn't corrupt our politics, screw over workers, and destroy small, local businesses. This isn't true. It's a lie that monopolists tell to justify their abuse. When we repeat it, we do monopolists' work for them – and we chase away the people we need to recruit for the meaningful struggles to build worker power and political power.

From Farm to Table: The Journey of Collagen Casings

Collagen casings have revolutionized the sausage manufacturing industry with their natural origin and versatile applications.

Derived from collagen proteins found in animal hides, these casings offer several advantages over traditional options, including uniformity in size, ease of use, and enhanced shelf life. They are not only biodegradable but also provide a smooth texture and excellent flavor retention, making them ideal for a variety of sausage types from breakfast links to gourmet sausages. As consumers increasingly prefer natural and sustainable products, collagen casings have gained popularity for their eco-friendly profile and ability to meet stringent quality standards in food processing. #CollagenCasings #SausageMaking #NaturalIngredients #EcoFriendlyPackaging #FoodIndustryInnovation #SustainableProducts #PremiumQuality #GourmetSausages #Biodegradable #FlavorRetention #FoodProcessing #ArtisanalMeats #FarmToTable #QualityStandards #HealthyEating

not super familiar with the debate but it seems like there was some sausagemaking exploting the split between franchisers and franchisees--the franchisers agreed to support (or at least not oppose) the increased wage in exchange for the legislature pulling a bill that would have forced them to share workplace liability with the location owners.

so California passed a law that fast food workers have a minimum wage of $20 an hour, but for other professions the minimum wage is only $16.50 an hour, why? how did they swing this, politically?

you rarely see him at this angle ingame considering everybody stands in 3/4 for conversations and it's his most 'flattering' profile, but here's what i mean about the symmetry

nick has a sharp, angular cheek. there's a fine, fine line between 'human face with structural elements missing' and 'human face that is poorly structured' if you're drawing. if there's a sweet spot, i don't know how to hit it, so i just cheat. i'll sometimes draw in the green segment, sometimes i don't. it depends on what direction he's facing. but whatever side is away from the viewer, that's getting the full cheek. shh......... it's a secret to everybody

getting a little inside baseball here but it is so so so handy to have pose mods and photo mode in fo4. nick has a tricky likeness anyways and it's really easy for features and landmarks to drift considering he's missing a bunch (his face isn't symmetrical) so this is a lifesaver. thank you modders for my life

Why do you think the people behind Pokemon Journeys wouldn’t focus on the battle between Leon and Diantha? It couldn’t have been much harder to write than Leon vs Alain.

Probably all the production delays, to be honest. They're probably setting up a new show based on the new games, and they basically need to finish Dande and Cynthia by the end of September, and the rest of Journeys will probably focus on Project Mew.

Farm raised pork belly, whitetail venison and salt…and that is all that was necessary for an amazing tasting sausage base. Frozen in small batches, we can pull one out and mix in some flavours, whatever we’re feeling at the moment. As a base, as is, it is a tremendous breakfast sausage, but Kevin immediately riffed on maple syrup.
