Expensive for a non-meat weener! ($8)
But, I like the concept. I also still prefer a Nathan's or a Sabrett.
Why? Because the -not so healthy- version taste so much better.
But, I like organic, non-gluten, soy free and plant based foods. I got a Classic Yeah Dawg and topped with some ingredients that were generic supermarket bought like chips, slices of pickle, etc…
The Yeah Dawg was good but not great. Eating it reminded me a little like what it would be if I were to eat Play-Doh, sort of but not really, it gave me that thought. The veggies, flour and flavoring in the mix gave me that impression.
Why? Because with the flour, veggie and flavor mix made the weener dense. In addition I didn't like the idea it tasted like carb (because I could taste flour in the weener) in a carb (bun), vegetable side taste with a little after taste, it taste nothing like a meat hot dog.

The co-founder is super cool and friendly.
I first heard of Yeah Dawg at the vegetarian food festival, but didn't end up trying them until I went to the reopening of Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary this past weekend. My fiance ordered their New Yorker dog, and I tried some. It tasted great, I would've liked a firmer texture and if it was easier to pick up, but it was still tasty. I would've preferred a top sliced bun for what it cost. My fiance said if he wanted a hotdog it'd satisfy his craving but did agree that it was pretty expensive.
The kale caesar that came with it was also tasty, but I'd rather it have been baby spinach or some other leafy green, only because kale gives me expensive health food hipster vibes. As much as I want to see vegan businesses grow in NYC, I don't want them gentrifying neighborhoods and making everything more expensive at the same time.
