The KING of vege hotdogs! July 25, 2006 Julian Nam (San Diego, CA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Big Franks Rule! The Worthington brand Super Links are pretty close, but they don't quite compare to the Big Franks. First of all, these are even bigger than the Super Links (20 oz. versus 19 oz. per pack of 12). Second, these have better texture (doesn't crumble; resembles more like meat). Third, these taste better. Combine with Worthington Chili to make some great vegetarian chili dogs. Dice them up to use in casseroles. Cut into chunks and use with pasta (as "meatballs"). Or just nuke them and eat with ketchup. No matter how you eat these, you'll love 'em.
Delicious Alternative April 5, 2006 John Cope (Yakima, WA USA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I first had the Big Franks while visiting a friend during high school and I've loved them ever since. They do not taste exactly like traditional meat hotdogs and the closest description of the flavor that I can come up with is something like a light-flavored vienna sausage. Otherwise, you can use the same condiments as regular hotdogs, or add mayo to add a bit more of a creamy flavor to them.
Awesome! June 11, 2006 S. Romeo 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
Okay, so I've been vegan for 9 years. This means I haven't tasted actual franks in that long. These franks tasted very familiar though. After reading the last review, I realize why. He was exactly right! It has a vienna sausage taste. Though it doesn't have that exact flavor, which is great. I always attributed the part of the flavor it doesn't have with spoiling meat anyway. So this is perfect for me. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. These franks are nice and plump. I boiled them, though I thought it would mess up the flavor. But they were perfect after all. I can't wait to try the burgers!
My Favorite January 19, 2007 L. Scheuer (Boston MA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Loma Linda products are very hard to find in stores so I was thrilled to see them on Amazon. I have eaten these since I was a child and they are one of my favorite foods. Some of my friends say they are an acquired taste, but those who like them seem to love them.
Yuck! December 28, 2007 Jo-Ann Hague (Dayton, Ohio) 6 out of 10 found this review helpful
I purchased these BIG FRANKS after reading the positive reviews and after enjoying other LOMA LINDA products. I have NO idea what the 5-star reviewers ate because I could barely stomach these pseudo-food products. I'm not sure what to do with the remaining cans because relish, catsup, onions, mustard and tons of other toppings failed to camouflage the rubbery off-taste of these "franks." My conclusion is that I think I'll eat all the condiments and dispense with this red-grey monstrosity. UPDATE: After reading responses to my review, I realize that the way to appreciate these franks is to eat them during childhood WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW ANY BETTER (sorry... just kidding... I couldn't resist). Okay... If you don't acquire a taste for these during your imprintable years, be cautious about buying them now. You've been warned. GOOD LUCK.
