I read another review about a 19 yr old male who loved these. I do these and set them up on a bed of mac and cheese with little fish crackers. Dab dots for eyes and a line for the mouth. My kids think they are wonderful!! They chow it!

    I seen this in a magazine, they made a bunch of them and placed them on spaghetti noodles that were cooked in green water to turn then green and they used mustard to draw a face on them SO CUTE, especially for the birthday party idea!

    Woah, this was fun to make for my younger brother for whom I have been playing momma since the last few days. He laughed and ate 'em all. Thank you so much for the creative idea! BTW, my bro is 19 and if he loved these, I'm sure everyone will Thanks again for the fun idea!

    These are so much fun! I atually make them over the bon fire. Same sort of idea without the boiling part. I cut them the same, then poke a long stick through the "head" part. The legs still curl up. My kids love them!

    In the 6 years I have been a parent I think I have only had hotdogs in the house twice. Just not something I buy. But while I was gone someone obviously did as I found them in my fridge! The kids loved these. Though my son did comment on the fact that I had not cut enough legs!

    I made these today for lunch and my four kids thought they were the coolest thing ever! Especially since we just got back from the coast... they're very interested in sea life right now. Thanks for sharing!

    I remember being mother to four younger siblings while mamma was away at her "canning-factory" job. Anyone with younger siblings knows how difficult it was to be a "parent" at age 10. Imagination was key in the preparation of gourmet meals, hot dogs, nothwithstanding...where were you, winkki, when creativity failed me?

    These are so quick and easy to fix, and the kids love 'em! I nuked them in the microwave for 17 seconds, and my twins were all giggles when I served them! Thanks for posting this, Winkki!
