A company that uses genomic analysis technology to derive the contents of food has found a disturbing “additive” in some of the hot dogs they tested- human DNA.
Clear Food chalks up the find to 2% of all hotdogs tested to hygienic issues.
Overall, the company said it found that 14.4 percent of hot dogs were problematic in some way.
From the CBS article on the subject:
A new report, adds extra meaning to the phrase “you don’t want to know how the sausage gets made.”
Clear Foods, which “uses genomic technology to analyze the world’s foods at a molecular level, ingredient by ingredient,” recently released a report (linked below) that it said was designed to look at the accuracy of the content labels of several major hot dog brands.The company analyzed 345 hot dog and sausage products from 75 brands and 10 retailers, and said they found “human DNA in 2% of the samples, and in 2/3rds of the vegetarian samples.”
Additionally, 10 percent of all vegetarian products appeared to contain meat.
Clear food says these are their top brands, making a score of 90 or better, and the higher the score the better (these are the most trusted brands to eat, out of the 75 tested).

Here is the explanation of what’s happened, given by Clear Foods. Personally, we want to know WHY they aren’t saying which brands contained human DNA and which vegetarian dogs contained meat. Again, I would only stick with the top list.
