Threaded uncooked spaghetti through hot dog pieces, I assume!

Would LOVE to give these to a bunch of toddlers and watch the mad giggles commence!

I'm frightened.

I'd assume you'd take dried spaghetti and poke it through hot dogs and then boil 'em?

oops! I scrolled right to the comment box before reading the info after the jump.

lol That is fantastic!!

that looks gross. innovative though.

Genius!

yuck.

Made me laugh out loud. If I was a kid, I'd totally eat this.

It does look like some sort of intestinal parasite.

i almost puked when i saw this thats absolutley repulsive

maybe for Halloween

Disgusting for a dinner party, of course, but I can't help smile when I think of the reaction little kids would have. Perhaps nitrate-free hot dogs and whole wheat spaghetti for the foodie tots? ; )

hot dogs. The poor man's filler. Feeder of little kids and secret yum of many. I've never had hot dog spaghetti, but hot dogs in eggs is still a favorite.

Oh, I saw that on Boing Boing! It cracked me up! I think they described it as a "Flying Spaghetti Monster" dish; unless I just imagined that. Disgusting and hilarious.

omgthatssodisgusting, lol

My nephew would love it, lol

Hilarious! Hotdoghetti!

talk about nightmares. that is the grossest thing i've ever seen. i want to un-see it.

This is brilliant...and gross. I love the spaghetti hot dog!

Um, gross. HOWEVER - I think I will make it with pesto chix sausage and spaghetti sauce for my own toddlers. They will love it!

A lot of those "recipes" have been posted on the website thisiswhyyourefat.com. Pretty hilarious ideas.

You people that don't like it must not have kids. Ds and niece would go crazy over this!

I'm so beyond disgusted.

They could be jellyfish, squid or octopus. No dogs in there ;)

does the spaghetti IN the hotdog actually cook?

I am sooo doing this next time I have kids at the house. What kind of sauce though? Spaghetti sauce, cheese, alfredo? Maybe even chili?

Really grossed out.

@crystalj - i was wondering the same thing. Sounds like you'd get crunchy spaghetti on the inside!

omg - that looks so gross...
I'm sure my SO's kids will LOVE it

Okay after seeing this yesterday, I decided to try it today. My dd is such an insanely picky eater, I'll attempt almost anything. Well it was a hit. She actually squealed in excitement and described each bite...it's an octopus, a jellyfish, pigtails, etc. I can't remember the last time she finished her dinner and she ate the entire bowl. My ds thought it was "cool". Very easy to make and no crunchy spaghetti inside. Of course not the healthiest of meals, but a fun dish to have once in awhile.

Thanks AT for putting me off my (spaghetti) dinner.

Let's hope folks use a healthier type of hot dog as most commercial hot dogs are made from lip and anus flesh from the animal. I remember when I used to ask what type of meat went into hot dogs most would say.....'You DON'T want to know!'. Finally found out and that put me off hot dogs for sure.

Hilariously disgusting

Honestly, as responsible meat-eaters we should be glad that they're using every part of the animal instead of squeamishly crying because they're using protein that's not a premium piece of steak. Waste not, want not.

That being said, "healthier" hotdogs probably aren't a bad idea to reduce nitrates and chemicals and whatnot. :P

Cute idea for Halloween or birthday parties! I say, make a cheese sauce and let those kiddos go to town.

Kaete,
WELL SAID!

Great, I was thinking about breaking my diet just now (It's about lunch time) but thanks to this I dont think I can even eat what I am supposed to

These things look just like heart worms (dog's disease) I dare you to google the term (but only if you have a strong stomach!!!)

I hope my nephew doesnt want this for dinner...

Disgusting, and I agree with the person who said they wished they could "un-see" it. There is something so gross about that picture...ewwwww.

I am totally making that for hubby when he gets home from his deployment. He will think this is a total riot!

I LOVE this!!!! For sure making it for the next time my nieces are in town. Maybe even for my next work pot luck - I wonder if anyone would eat them?

That is so cool...and weird...and nutz...and fun...all rolled into a hot dog!

i made these for my boys, and you wouldn't believe the comments i got when i posted the pics on my blog. everyone was saying how gross it is, but i honestly don't see why!

here are pictures from when i made them:

This is hilarious!! As a Filipina, I don't find spaghetti and hot dogs disgusting at all. Filipinos frequently accompany spaghetti and ragu with chopped up hot dogs. I might try this the next time I make it.

Nast.

I'm really grossed out by this.

This made me laugh hard enough to scare others....

I'm bookmarking it for when I need to defend my title as Coolest Auntie.
