A while ago, there was a post that Caseys would no longer serve BEEF hot dogs. Was this true? And if so, is this in effect now? I only eat BEEF hot dogs.

I can't personally confirm, but the news I've heard on other boards and blogs is that the hot dogs are now 60% chicken, 40% beef, and that they're only served on wheat buns. The beef-and-white-bread crowd are, understandably, outraged. If I wanted a healthy meal, I probably wouldn't choose a hot dog, no matter its ingredients.

The wheat buns have been that way for over a year now.

Does anyone else have a problem with the wheat buns wanting to fall apart?

nope, always found them to be nearly the same as white.

Sometimes yeah. They were worse when they were first introduced. I think they changed them slightly as the ready-to-crumble nature improved significantly.

Yep,
They have so much gluten developed in them that it may as well be white flour.

I understand the buns as a cost cutting measure. It is acceptable with a hotdog but with a hamburger it is just plain messy.
I did not like the chicken bites at first, I LOVED the TENDERS. But you actually get more food the new way.
As for the hot dogs, I understand the change. However, Caseys is known for BEEF - that is their specialization.

I allways found Caseys dogs to be, well, not to my liking.
Maybe if they throw some pork in the mix, it would be better.
I think the buns are more of a health promotion deal, rather than a cost cutting. Much the same reason you cannot get a Toll House Ice Cream Sandwitch anymore.

The Toll House Ice Cream Sandwich removal was for health reasons? Then why can you still get a humungaloid custom-made ice cream cookie sandwich at the Main Street Bakery? (Not that I'm complaining, LOL, but it was enough for two of us to share and then some!) :slurp:

Are or were the hotdogs at Caseys really any different than that of Cosmic Ray's? Doesn't taste any different to me.
and no seating. We ate there Tuesday nights during MVMCP while it was raining.

They could not make the Toll House Sandwitch Trans-Fat Free so it was removed.
The others may be loaded with fat, but it's not trans-fat so eat to your heart's content.
I have a power point somewhere outlining the WDW health plan. One of the slides says "Convert to all foods to trans-fat free" "Remove foods that cannot be converted (ex Toll House Cookie Ice Cream Sandwitch)"
So, thats the story.
I'll dig it up, or a link to it if possible, Not sure how to post a power point on these forums.
Bingo !

And I always thought the Penny Lane lyric "Four of fish and finger pies" referred to four pennies worth of fish and chips. That is until I was assigned as a liaison with the BAOR.

No, the hot dogs at Casey's are not different. Casey's hot dogs are 100% beef and has Kosher food made to order along with Cosmic Ray's I believe. Glatt Kosher and Star-K certified.
