Hot dogs in a grocery store

Today, for the first time, I tried out a service that connects you with stores and restaurants selling their end-of-shelf-life food for a steep discount.

Why?

Because groceries are crazy expensive, that’s why.

So it’s weird that someone wouldn’t take all the advantaged they were offered, like in this video from TikTok user @dnasiabrown1:

Personally, I don’t think I’ve ever had a hot dog that tasted substantially better than any other hot dog (putting aside differences in quality of toppings).

Perhaps I have an unrefined meat tube pallet.
