The taste may very well be saltier, but Hebrew National frankfurters are still my favorite.
They must be well-done, and accompanied by authentic delicatessen mustard. Sometimes a heaping portion of sauerkraut is in order.
I tend to now eat the reduced fat ones, as they taste similarly to the full-fat ones. The fat-free ones tend to have a smoky, spicy flavor, almost like a sausage.

This thread piqued my interest (again) in trying HN dogs. So we bought them and had one for lunch yesterday. I thought they were a little salty but aside from that they were just ok. Kind of subtle flavouring.... I guess I'd buy them again, but wouldn't necessarily go out of my way. Maybe we should try the fat-free version. Sounds like they might have more 'kick.'

I think the salty taste is a feature :-)
Sadly, our genes have caught up with us, and we can no longer eat the "regular" Hebes. The low fat ones are still plenty greasy, and taste about the same if cooked on the stove, but they don't grill as nicely.
The no fat ones are icky!
