The smallest commercially available cocktail sausages I've seen are about as thick as a pencil and 2cm long. It should be possible to go down to a much smaller size, so that the weiners/chippolitas/cheerios/frankfurts (choose your local handle) are small enough to fit inside a piece of macaroni.
I imagine using the teenie weenies to add to soups (oh, that delicious burst of pig grease as you bite down on several teenie weenies in a spoonful of lentil soup..), to fry up and add to omelettes and of course to stuff into individual pieces of macaroni.
Would see them as quite addictive, so a treat rather than a staple.-- ConsulFlaminicus, Mar 16 2005 may as well use a grinder that pushes the meat out in tiny round strands. most of the ground beef I buy looks like that.-- dentworth, Mar 16 2005 random, halfbakery
