It does NOT taste like a hot dog, but it's still delicious in its own right. Would recommend if you're looking for a cheaper, healthier, and more convenient variant of a plant-based hot dog.

It's very annoying how people add so much heated emotion into what are casual statements when they can't hear the tone of voice. It doesn't bother me enough to warrant a diatribe like I just received. And I obviously wasn't going to read the life story that preempts the actual recipe like is on every awful recipe site.
In a world where carnists will literally grasp at straws to squeeze in anti-vegan sentiment whenever they can, especially when we're on an instance that forbids anti-vegan sentiment, I have very much a reason to believe that you being so concerned about "not treating it like a hot dog" is just a bad-faith attempt to express the discomfort that vegan alternatives bring you, especially since you didn't even seem to have a modicum of curiosity to at least read up on how this dish is prepared before you gave your comment.
Carnists can oftentimes be so myopic that they say shit like, "Why do vegans make their food look and taste like meat instead of just eating meat? 😂😂😂😂" I talk with them rather frequently, and I have to hear these dense, absurdly shortsighted kinds of takes all the time.
If you genuinely did not intend bad faith, then I will issue you an apology right now.
However, taking into consideration what I just wrote, if you want to avoid this, then next time, I'd advise you to try phrasing your comment in a way that doesn't sound like you're pissed off about the violation of the purity of junky, processed dish that is usually made from animal carcasses.
Instead of "It's not a hot dog, so don't treat it like a hot dog" (whatever the fuck that means), say something like "I wonder if it being carrot-based would make toppings that are unusual for meat-based hot dogs work well on it." Otherwise, I just sense the vibe of that pitiful carnist energy that I'm all too familiar with.
