The youngsters, it seems, want hot dogs and hamburgers. Seldom, if ever, are hot dogs and hamburgers served in the school cafeterias. The result is that the youngsters go outside and buy them from vendors. I don’t know anything about calories in hot dogs but I do know that the school cafeterias should be able to prepare them better than the vendors. If the pupils want hot dogs, give ‘em hot dogs, it’s their money. The average youngster’s stomach can handle hot dogs.
