Tag: Plant based hot dog

While the nutritional content can vary significantly by brand and type, a standard 1.5-ounce beef hot dog typically contains around 5 to 7 grams of protein. This makes the popular frankfurter a modest source of protein, but far from a powerhouse of the nutrient, especially when compared to whole, unprocessed foods. The amount of protein you get depends heavily on the meat source, size, and other ingredients added during processing.

In a push for greater sustainability, IKEA announced that 50% of its main meals would be plant-based by 2025. A key part of this effort is the evolution of their hot dog, with the latest iteration featuring rice-based protein to perfectly replicate the original hot dog experience.

Ikea's commitment to offering more sustainable food options has led to the development of two popular meat-free options: the plant-based hot dog and the veggie dog. So, what is the difference between Ikea plant based hot dogs and veggie dogs, and which one is the right choice for your next shopping trip meal?
