I was in the grocery store recently and I came across the hot dogs. Now keep in mind I'm a big health nut and hot dogs are not the healthiest things in the world to eat due to the fat & sodium. Well I never thought about fat free hot dogs or 'light' hot dogs,which to my surprise were are actually healthy minus the sodium(0-2 grams of fat per dog). Does anyone know anything as to why I shouldn't consume 4-5 hot dogs a day to keep the protein intake up? Anyone ever used hot dogs as part of their diet to gain muscle?
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
Hot dogs?

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

protein is protein.
I'm a health nut too, and the main reason I stay away from hotdogs is the sodium and the fact that alot of hotdogs are usually eaten avec buns, which are terrible.
I can't think of a reason to stay away from hotdogs if they are low in sodium and fat, although I always prefer a steak or turkey breast.
Check the transfats, and that other crap.
As a rule of thumb, I usually try to steer clear of processed foods...
[edit - hotdogs do contain alot of cholesterol, whether it's good/bad cholesterol I don't know.

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
"avec buns"? there's a phrase to use in everyday conversation 
there's dozens of better protein sources out there. almost almost heavily processed meats have more of everything nasty in them, including nitrates. should stay away from processed lunchmeats, too.
google 'hot dogs nitrates' (w/o quotes)

wtf is trans fat??? ive never heard of it
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
trans fats are an artificial fat that result from processing vegetable oils in such a way as to make them solid at room temperate (this is how Crisco and margarine are made). partial hydrogenation creates these trans fats that occur only in trace amounts in nature, and it turns out that they're probably about the worst sort of fat you can consume, particularly for heart health.
