Questions & Answers
When the standard Big Franks were out of stock, I ordered a case of these. There are five vegetarians in the house, including myself, and no one liked them (except me). Before purchasing a case, try a can from a nearby health food store.
Nothing in the ingredients suggests this to me. Near the bottom of the list, I see some 'caramel color,' and the last item is 'Red 3 for color.' I hope this provides some insight into your query.
"Do Loma Linda Big Franks have wheat in them?" I looked up on Google. "Yes," says the answer. Here's a list of the ingredients: The following are the ingredients: Textured vegetable protein, wheat gluten, soy protein concentrate, water for hydration, corn oil, torula yeast, defatted wheat germ, defatted soy flour, dried onion, mono- and diglycerides from soybean oil, salt, hydrolyzed soy protein, garlic powder, autolyzed yeast extract, hydrolyzed corn protein, soy lecithin, caramel color, natural smoke flavor, l-ascorbic acid spices, concentrated onion juice, natural flavors from non-GMO sources, lysine monohydrochloride niacinamide, calcium pantothenate, thiamin mononitrate (b1), pyridoxine hydrochloride (b6), riboflavin (b2), cyanocobalamin (b12), propylene glycol, soybean oil, red 3 for color

I found the lowest price on the low-fat version of this product. I decided to take a chance and buy a case. The taste did not disappoint me. br>br>However, I never eat them like hot dogs (they aren't as tasty that way). I only use them to make a sandwich spread with mayo and herbs that I grind up in a food processor. So that's all I have to go on to form an opinion, and for that, these were excellent. br>br>I'm not a vegetarian, but I grew up eating this type of food and enjoy the nostalgic flavor. br>br>However, it is prohibitively expensive.
This is a disaster. Since 1971, I've been a vegetarian, and since 2006, I've been vegan. I'm not in the market for real hot dogs! These appear to be Vienna sausages that have grown out of control. They smell like dog food and are disgusting to eat. When I need a junk food fix, I'll reach for my favorite refrigerated brand of vegan hot dogs.
These, like all meat substitutes, benefit from a variety of seasonings. Mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard are all good choices, as are chopped onions. I prefer the low-fat versions to the regular ones.
Despite the fact that the can said "Low Fat," I didn't notice it. Get them if you like the regular Loma Linda Big Franks, which have 90 calories per dog. The "low fat" version (80 calories) has a very bland flavor, and I'm sorry I bought them.
Tastes and feels like full fat - These are a little firmer and probably not as rich as the others, but by-and-large, they're delicious. There isn't much of a difference between them, by and large. They don't get lost in the bun and can withstand a variety of toppings without losing their "hot Dog" flavor.
In comparison to store prices, this is a great deal on a case of these.
I used hot water (just under boiling) and sauerkraut to cook these franks. I expected something tasteless and bland. They were even better than the beef franks I used to eat, which surprised me. These are something I plan to purchase on a regular basis.
The texture is excellent. The flavor is fantastic. To make a quick sandwich, I like to use them.
