You check the ingredients? Corn dogs are often chicken sausages, whereas normal hot dogs are usually beef/pork?
Comment on Seven Corndogs

My kids only eat the dog. They rip off and discard the delicious corn coating like it’s a banana peel. Why don’t we just offer them regular hot dogs, you ask? We do, but “they don’t taste the same.” Monsters. So now we don’t buy corn dogs because I’m not paying corn dog prices for hot dog meals.

I imagine you gotta get that hint of sweet and gritty leftover corn wrap, too, though. And the crunchy bit at the bottom. It’s a delicacy that’s hard to re-create.

We tried to make our own corn dogs, thinking that would be cheaper for them to destroy, but they didn’t like them.

Yea, my husband has tried different types of hotdogs, but hasn’t had any luck with them

Tried it. Even tried making my own batter that I then rip off. It’s not the same was the response.

My partner does almost the same thing, she eats the skin off completely and then eats the hot dog part you know, like a psychopath

Yup that’s frightening behavior indeed

I can’t fault her for that. I eat sandwiches crust first. She’s basically doing the same thing.

I do the same and the logic is with us. Crust first ensures you will not experience any toppings or condiments running away. You get everything behaving itself riiight in the middle. That might just be me; I am obsessed with condiments.

I prefer the taste of non-crust over crust, so it allows me to savor that which I truly enjoy
