I spotted these nitrate-filled monsters at Society Hill Food Garden the other day. Yes, I am aware that foot-long dogs exist, but it's a little jarring to see these enormous glistening meat tubes right next to regular-sized frankfurters. They look bigger in real life, too.

As much as I wanted to get one, I opted for a turkey on rye instead.

It begs the question: How big is too big? Ladies?
