I wonder how many of the would-be boycotters ever in their lives had purchased Nathan's hot dogs before now.

I don't eat hot dogs and I'm sure others don't either.  No big deal here.  Just a bunch of liberal whiners and complainers.

I'll bet even fewer of those boycotters have ever heard of, let alone read, The Jungle by Upton Sinclair.   :rolling:

Hasn't stopped me from eating hot dogs, just sayin...

   I don't think HEB carries them anymore @Sanguine, but Walmart and Target does (in Texas).

I get Nathan's all the time at my Fry's (Kroger).  I like them quite a lot.  Better than Hebrew  National.
