A Hotdog Wiener is a single sausage taken from a Pack of Hotdogs. It is the meat half of a Hot Dog. It can also be cooked and added to several hearty dishes.

A wiener lowers hunger by 10 and weighs 0.15. It is meant to be eaten hot, and a cold one is a poor meal. It spoils within a week.

Wieners come from opening a Pack of Hotdogs, which gives 4 of them. The Chef is the best occupation for cooked and prepared. It starts with the most Cooking skill. The Burger Flipper also starts with some Cooking skill.

Eating

Eating a hotdog wiener lowers hunger by 10. It holds only 65 calories, with about 2 grams of fat and very little protein or carbohydrate. That makes it a light snack for body weight.

The game marks the wiener as better hot and bad cold. A cooked wiener eaten warm gives a small mood lift. A cold one sours the mood instead.

Compared with a Hotdog Bun, a wiener fills the same 10 hunger but holds far fewer calories. Putting the two together into a Hot Dog is the usual way to eat them.

The table shows the game figures for one serving. Negative hunger and thirst fill the character up, and negative unhappiness and boredom cheer them up.

Cooking

A wiener cooks in 20 minutes and burns after 40.

It is a strong addition to evolved dishes. It adds 10 hunger to a Pizza, a Stew, a Pie, a Stir Fry, a Pasta or a Rice dish. That is the same amount it gives when eaten alone.

The Prepare Hot Dog recipe joins one wiener with one Hotdog Bun. It needs no station and no skill. The Cooking skill makes every wiener added to a dish go further.

These dishes take the Hotdog Wiener as an ingredient, with the hunger it restores in each.

Storage

A hotdog wiener stays fresh for 3 days and is fully rotten by day 6. A fridge slows both counts down. Opening the pack only when the wieners are needed keeps the rest from spoiling early.
