Colleen,
Glad to hear the corn dog splurge was worth breaking the budget. Perhaps overpriced corn dogs could become your nasty little habit...much like the Mega Size M&Ms hidden in my t-shirt drawer. Corn dog + mustard = mouth watering!
Al,
Loved the graphics |

Yes, Hebrew National are GF. They are a ConAgra product, and will specifically list gluten containing ingredients within the ingredient list - anything containing wheat, rye, barley, oats, or vinegar. |

Colleen,
I ran into a grocery store that I don't normally frequent and was looking at the frozen gluten-free products when I spotted the GF corn dogs. Had you not mentioned them I might have been able to avoid the temptation. Alas, you did and I didn't. The brand is S'Better Farms. Five corn dogs set me back $7.99, but I'm not complaining...just relaying facts.
I just finished eating one and was quite pleased. I defrosted it in the microwave and baked it at 350*F on the convection setting in the oven for about 8 minutes. The outside was crunchy; the inside was soft and airy; the dog had good flavor. I think there must be a little sugar in the batter because they leave a slightly sweet aftertaste. It was delicious...the perfect midnightish snack.
I'll be lucky if the rest of them last throughout the weekend. |

Sadly, our WF doesn't carry any corn dogs, GF or otherwise. So I wasn't able to try them out. 
On the positive side, they just started carrying Lara Bars. I haven't tried them yet, but I don't think I'll be buying them often. 210 calories per bar??

TEC - I am so glad I could lead you into corn dog temptation.  Mine reminded me of being a kid again. School lunch only better. Isn't it funny what will make us happy?

It is funny! My mom was sort of crunchy when we were growing up. When we were at fairs, carnivals and such we could get a corn dog and then split a bag of cotton candy. One big cone of cotton candy has only 1 teaspoon of sugar. My mom considered it the best of the bad. That corn dog took me back my childhood--thanks.  |

Os, I didn't get them at Whole Foods. I got them at a store called Meijer.
As far as Lara Bars, they are high caloric but they are very filling. Perfect food for a meal on the fun and have fewer calories than most candy bars. |

Update to this: our local WF now carries GF chicken nuggets and corn dogs. So...very...yummy!

Bumping this thread to add this brand "S'Better farms Beef Corn Dogs"
http://www.sbetterfarms.com/kosheerbeefcorndogs.php
Yes these were pricey but like Colleen's OP they're a treat and won't be eaten all the time. Also, my DS is the ONLY one in the house who eats them. I got a little taste of the batter after I had to mush it back onto the dog in a place or two where it was coming off and it tastes pretty sugary and that explains why my DS LOVES them. I've never been a corndog fan myself but some of y'all may wish to check these out sometime.
