Worthington Veja-Links, 19-Ounce Cans (Pack of 12)

For a vegetatian "hot dog" these are the best in taste. Some others have a very unpleasant taste, however good for you they are, my only hope is that Amazon continues to carry these and other Worthingtn and Loma Linda products. These are great because you need not freeze or refigerate them. You only need to open the can that will store for a long time on the shelf.

Veja-Links taste like real weiners. They are a little softer than a real weiner, but not as soft as Loma Linda Big Franks. Also, they nor real weiners have the savory flavor of Big Franks to me. Some people don't like their veggie dogs soft. For those who want their veggie dog to taste exactly like the real thing, I would reccomend another product from this same company - Morning Star Farms veggie dogs. They're in the frozen breakfast section of your local grocery store. They are firm just like real weiners and they have the exact same taste. However, I prefer Big Franks to both of these veggie dogs.

These vegetarian "hot dogs" are really good. They have the right texture, which most tofu dogs and the like don't have at all. The seasoning is very good too. They stay firm boiled or grilled, although you cook them less than a product containing meat. They only have 50 calories each, and 3 grams of fat, only 0.5 grams of that is saturated. They have 0 cholesterol and 0 trans fats. They only have 180 mg of sodium. If you're doing Dr. Fuhrman's "Eat to Live" and you're just going nuts for some meat, try grilling one of these babies and slap it on a whole wheat pita bread. It will kill those cravings and keep you from doing something you'll regret.
