Just eat a hot dog
Ooo dude like animation different
People be doing alchemy to make a carrot a hotdog.
Make catdog next
Everything just to make it tast one percent more like the dog
I think we will achieve more success if we cook veggie as veggie instead of trying to make meat out of veggies
Liquid Smoke gives me a slight allergic reaction for some reason
But why tho?
Still won't contain protein so you'll be hungry again in 5 min
Its good I didnt boil in brine I just boiled them then soak overnighr in fridge in the liquid smoke and soy sauce.
If I go to the cookout and somebody gives me a carrot hotdog I’m airing out the whole block
sometimes i just think, if vegetarian so againts eating meat why do they try to eat something shaped like a meat? like just eat meat gng
So you literally just did exactly what Tabitha Brown did.. yall didnt invent or do anything differently. You did exactly what the trend called for.. just spreading misinformation for no reason lol
So do we get a recipe?
Not as bad as I thought/10
Way better then that fake meat stuff
Why not use… Hot dogs that taste like hot dogs 🙃
Vegans:
If you really do believe that you should not eat meat, isn’t it ironic and pathetic that you’re trying to make your little veggies taste like meat, fish, sausages, steak, wings, etc etc 😅
As a vegan i am never not surprised and amused by what people think we eat 😭
They just put a carrot in a bun like "those vegans eat plants instead of meat, right? Like this? Thats so weird and tastes bad. Stupid vegans" lmao
I still prefer hot dogs.
“If I were vegan, I’d eat this.” But he’s not vegan which implies that he wouldn’t normally, if ever, eat this. That doesn’t sound like you make it taste like a hotdog to me.
Has anyone actually tried this? I don't like hot dogs or sausage but I do love carrots! And my best friend is vegan, so I've been looking for homemade vegan dog recipes, and so far I've found an IKEA veggie dog recipe, but I'd love to give this a try!
"okay hear me out on this one" no thank you bub I'm scrolling
please universe let futurecanoe find this
ah, BA test kitchen, it's been a LONG long time
No
I'm sorry wha "Liquid Smoke"???
Also @theplantslant2431 I think it's worth trying
Let carrots be carrots and hot dogs be hot dogs.
GROSS! JUST EAT THAT DELICIOUS HOT DOG!!
Umami just means savory
Reminds me a bit of the process of making tea eggs
Definitely will try it despite my being a full-on carnivore. I, too, have vegan friends.
Honestly, for the amount of effort, I’d rather just make a really good vegan sausage with lentils and chickpeas
Why did the le creuset handle change overnight??
Just eat a real hotdog and life will go on probably solved
You didn’t fix it…you slapped some make up on it and thought you could fool people. I’d still eat one as a side with two real hot dogs
I highly doubt that
Insane
As a vegan; no. Never
