tinned hot dogs- if eaten cold are they....

[kbaby]

going to give me food poisoning.

On the can it says heat in micro but I wanted mine cold so eat them straight out of the tin.
Ive just looked and there are no 'you can serve them cold' suggestion. So now im panicking.

erm I believe they are supposed to be cooked first, yes.

They're fine cold. Well, neither me or DD have died yet and we eat them cold sometimes.
They are cooked, the heating thing is a serving suggestion
