TORONTO -- Heinz has launched an online campaign calling on companies to sell hot dog buns and wieners in even packs. However, industry insiders say there is a reason why they’re sold in uneven numbers.on Tuesday, saying that it is time "big bun and big wiener companies to finally sell buns and wieners in even packs."
"We hope with enough signatures on our petition we can prove to bun and wiener companies that the time for change is now," Gotlib said in an email on Thursday.However, experts say there is a reason for the unequal packaging between wieners and buns. Riley, who previously was the president of the U.S. National Hot Dog and Sausage Council , explained that people used to go to the deli and order the specific number of hot dogs they wanted. She says it wasn’t until the early 1940s when hot dog wieners began being produced uniformly in cellulose casings to help ensure every dog was the same size.
Bimbo Canada, a producer and distributor of packaged fresh bread and bakery products including Dempster's, Villaggio, POM, Bon Matin and Stonemill, among others, said it also offers a variety of hot dog bun options for consumers. If having leftover hot dog buns isn’t ideal, the U.S. National Hot Dog and Sausage Council recommends some simple math to solve the problem.

Read the fine print on wiener packages. At the very end of the list of ingredients they say ‘may contain meat’.
My prediction -Weiner's will be sold in an 8 pack and will be the same price as the present 12 pack.
big bun and big wiener companies hahaha funny 😆
'These skinless wieners were sold in packages that were typically 10 to the pack, but baking pans baked four buns at a time, so two sets of four buns were sold in an eight-bun package,' Riley explained. Think some bright spark would have made a proper baking pan, sooner?
Father of the bride did this best
I grew up in Montreal. Buns and dogs always came in 12's
Never thought about it and eat hot dogs 3 times a month.
This is why no one takes seriously
a reason that is 80 years old and could be changed over night is not a reason worth writing about
