Hot Dogs and Sausages

A hot dog is a grilled or steamed sausage sandwich that includes a hot dog bun as well as a beef sausage. A hot dog bun is a bakery product made of bread, and sausage is made mostly of ground meat such as pork, beef, or chicken and is seasoned with spices such as cinnamon, garlic, paprika, or cumin seeds, among others. Hot dogs and sausages are available in a variety of tastes, including honey, brown sugar, barbecue, spicy, and teriyaki.

North America maintained a substantial market position in the worldwide Hot Dogs and Sausages Market in 2018, owing to the growing popularity of on-the-go food items. The top hot dog consuming cities in 2018 were Los Angeles, New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, Chicago, Phoenix, Atlanta, Detroit, Washington DC, and Tampa, according to the National Hot Dog and Sausages Council (NHDSC). According to NHDSC data released in 2018, Los Angeles consumers devoured over 31 million pounds of hot dogs, which is greater than comparable cities such as New York City and Philadelphia.

Due to increased knowledge about health risks caused by other meat kinds, the chicken sector is likely to occupy a major proportion of the Hot Dogs and Sausages Market over the forecast period. Red meat, which is a form of mammalian muscle meat, includes pork and beef. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), red meat includes carcinogens such as heterocyclic aromatic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (cancer-causing agents). Furthermore, the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) International (a cancer preventive research institution) advised minimizing red and processed meat consumption and evaluating poultry meat, such as chicken, as a suitable substitute for red meat. As a result, chicken is a generally safer choice for food and is thus expected.

Furthermore, long-term eating of sausages made from red meat is thought to be dangerous since they contain a substance known as haem, which can cause cancer. Beef, lamb, and pork are examples of red meat. According to the Cancer Council New South Wales in Australia, consuming more than 700 grams (raw weight) of red meat each week increases the risk of colon cancer. As a result, health concerns over red meat intake are projected to limit the growth of the Hot Dogs and Sausages Market.
