You are so AWESOME! I ordered this on a Friday and it got delivered on a SUNDAY. Are you kidding me?! What excellent service, Thank you very much! I love this product. This has never changed over the years. For those of you who prefer mild vegetarian meat, this is the one to get. Other products have either gone, or changed. Linketts are the perfect vegetarian food to get started on if you want to be a Vegan or vegetarian. You can just open the can and eat as is if you wanted. Boil, grill, microwave and add the condiments or do without them. perfect any way you want!
I love Linketts, they have been a favorite since I was a kid. If you weren't raised eating them you might not like them but if you like trying new things and like other vegetarian foods you should try these. I use them just as meat eaters use regular hot dogs. They taste great fried with Worthington chili. You can also be creative with these and come up with some great recipes. One of my favorites uses brown rice, olive oil, onion powder, stewed tomatoes, canned black beans, and sliced Linketts and then putting it in tortillas. It is one of the greatest recipes ever just don't leave out any of the ingredients I once forgot to add the black beans and it wasn't even close to as amazing.
Also since the Linketts are not meat based it not a problem to eat them straight from the can but DO NOT judge the taste based on that alone because they taste completely different when they are fried or grilled. Also I think most people would only like them fried or grilled especially people who are or were meat eaters.
If you like plain old veggie hot dogs, not the fancy apple or spice blends, then these will probably work well for you. They're the closest thing I've found to a beef frank in a vegan version. I've been buying these for years, since way back in the 70's in Berkeley when I first discovered vegetarian eating. These are just plain old links with fairly thin skins that absorb the flavors of other foods somewhat when you add them to another dish. They are the only ones that I use when making sauerkraut and mashed potatoes or with vegetarian baked beans. I've cut them into smaller pieces and marinated them in vinegar and pepper spices to make a hot pickled sausage like you used to see in taverns in a big jar.
It's sort of weird that they come in a can but they're packed in liquid which keeps them moist. (It's always a challenge to get the first one out without breaking it). I have a hard time finding this product in the grocery stores so I was delighted to find that Amazon sells them by the case and with Prime shipping it's a good deal.
i was a little hesitant to order these after reading reviews that said they had changed. it is true they have changed,but
for the better. before they had a great taste but the texture wasnt there. these taste and have the texture of real meat hotdogs. i'll bet that people that dont like the change have been raised vegetarian and never had a ''real'' pigsnout hotdog. these dogs are slam on and i'll bet they could fool most non vegetarians.
Although I'm not a strict vegetarian by any means, I've been eating these since I was a kid. Always keep them on the pantry shelf for quick meals. They go nicely with beans or casseroles...wherever you would use meat wieners.

Description
Meatless hot dogs, with mild seasonings. Heat it and eat it any way you like! Linketts are perfect for recipes such as “vegan pigs in a blanket’ or even in a chili. Linketts are versatile in their use, and 60% less fat than beef hot dogs, all the while being shelf stable and easy and quick to prepare.
I've been eating Linketts since I was a very young child since my Grandparents are vegetarians, and I LOVE them. I will admit it is a very aquired taste. I even got my boyfriend started on them and he loves them too. =D
I would suggest finding a store that sells them by the can before you invest in a whole case. I know that you can find them at Raley's on the West Coast. If local health food stores don't carry them check to see if there is a Seventh Day Adventist Church near you. The SDA Church typically has a book center that sells the Worthington/Loma Linda products.
Edit: I have also found Linketts in the natural food section of Kroger's here in Texas as well. Another Edit.. My local Kroger has stopped carrying Linketts. =(
Love these, taste great! Little small for a bun used 2.. Great tasting Great buy.. :)
Well whatever I say will sound redundant. Most people love these Linketts, and I’m one of ‘em. I like them better than the franks (they’re too fat for me), and I like the smokey flavor.
These are the best veggie dogs around. There are 10 linketts in a can and everytime I open a can I fight myself to not eat all of them in a single day.
However if you are not a vegetarian/vegan yet, don't start buying a whole pack even though they are much cheaper at amazon.com.
Buy a single can (they have it at Walmart, or you can ask at a Seventh Day Adventist Church, they'll know where to find a store around) and don't give up if you find it doens't taste like the traditional dog, because these don't have meat in it.
But if you are veggie lover, you'll notice Linketts Loma Linda are # 1.
I serve these as hotdogs for my vegetarian and Jewish friends who keep kosher. Once in a while meat eaters will try these and they like them, after I explain they aren't supposed to taste like meat and the texture might be a bit rubbery.
I also serve them sliced up with fresh corn, or slice them into sandwiches, or make corn dogs out of them.
Babies and toddlers also like them - just cut them in half so they can feed themselves. Much healthier than a hotdog with a bunch of mystery meats and unknown preservatives and chemicals.
I've also diced these up into homemade vegetarian pot pies.
