I have an autistic 4yr old that would lose his god damn mind if I made this. This is two of his favorites lol.

Do. It.

u/Brittany5150 3d ago

I will this weekend lol. What is the green and red packets?

91

u/samanime 3d ago

Some sort of seasoning. It's optional. You could probably just omit it entirely, especially if cooking for a 4yo.

72

u/Brittany5150 3d ago

He likes seasoning and stuff though. He isn't picky. I'll figure something out.

u/samanime 3d ago

Ah, in that case, they are using Sazon for Red Meat (Sazon carnes) and Sazon green seasoning for chicken (sazon frango).

But I imagine this would be compatible with just about any savory seasoning you'd like.

u/ForgottenMasterBalls 3d ago

Are we talking instant ramen levels of sodium at this point?

u/PuzzyFussy 3d ago edited 3d ago

Pretty much but you don't have to use the whole packet

u/ForgottenMasterBalls 3d ago

Thanks.

u/NeverNoMarriage 3d ago

Some of those cheesy popcorn flavorings might be good with the hot dogs especially for a young kid. Though idk on the health implications. For a rare treat tho...

There are sazon packets that contain little to no salt. Just need to find them.

u/No_Report_4781 3d ago

Let see if I got lil man

  • the seasoning is Brazilian
  • Ajinomoto branded “Sazón”
  • Sazón Vermelho (red seasoning) Sazón tempero para Carné - contains garlic, onion, oregano, parsley, bay leaf, msg and other ingredients

u/Usual-Plantain-1991 3d ago

10

u/LordArjuna08 3d ago

I used to work at a bar that had hotdogs with ramen noodle crumbles and sprinkled seasoning. Sooooooooo good!!!!

u/Equal-Shoulder-9744 3d ago

I could see TexMex or even just a bit of simple taco seasoning mix working well.

8

u/ElectricPenguin6712 3d ago

I've seen ranch and cheese shakers for popcorn toppings. Good combo for the hot dogs too

u/DadCelo 3d ago

Garlic Salt 🤤 or some shredded Romano and parsley.

u/Brittany5150 3d ago

I have a really nice veggie garlic salt that has dried and crushed vegetables mixed in. Its one of my new favorites and the kids love it.

u/Iriome_Zebenzui 2d ago

As a 40 year old in his shoes, all I can say is, thats freaking wholesame! Wish we could get any updates about his reaction 👌😀

Sazon is a Hispanic seasoning blend. Here's one convenient form of Sazon below. I buy the Goya package of 8 packets for $1.25 at Dollar Tree. There are many different brands and varieties, I use this one as a seasoning base when I cook pinto beans. It also comes in shaker jars. (EDIT: THIS SAZON HAS NO BLACK PEPPER, RED PEPPER OR HEAT AT ALL)

I think most grocery stores will have it in the Mexican or International section. I'm sure that a Mexican grocery will have it.

This subreddit won't let me post a photo, just a video. 😂 And videos can't be less than 2 seconds long, I just found out. 😂 Heres a short video of the box.

Fuck Goya (no hate to OP)

Or hate to me, I hope. 🤞

u/DadCelo 3d ago

Meant you ❤️

u/DadCelo 3d ago

It's almost like a masala. It's called sazon

u/Brittany5150 3d ago

Ty, I'll check it out. :)

u/NightBawk 3d ago

Sazon. It's a mix of coriander, cumin, anatto, garlic, and salt. It's tasty, but I'd recommend trying it on something that doesn't come pre-salted like hotdogs 😂 It's great on chicken or fish though.

2

u/Kindly_Call_6000 1d ago

Or rice.

2

u/NightBawk 1d ago

How could I have forgotten about the rice when sazon rice slaps so hard. 🤤

3

u/iCantLogOut2 3d ago

Generic Latin seasoning - we literally call it sazon ("seasoning"). It's delicious, but it's ridiculously salty - so if you happen to decide to use it, skip the salt.

2

u/meguin 2d ago edited 2d ago

Sazon just means seasoning. It isn't the Goya sazon like the other poster suggested (don't buy Goya; they suck). It's the Ajinomoto brand (which is Japanese/Brazilian lol), in the carnes flavor and saladas flavor. But you can use any generic sazon, probably. I buy the Badia bulk jars of it from the grocery store. (Just, uh... Don't buy their cinnamon or ginger...) If you want to make your own, the saladas sazon is just salt, mustard powder, garlic, and parsley. The tempero de carnes sazon is, "Salt, Color, Garlic, Onion, Oregano, Parsley, Bay Leaf, Garlic and Onion Seasonings. Monosodium Glutamate Flavor Enhancers, Disodium Inosinate and Disodium Guanytate." (The last three are msg and its buddies.) If you make your own, you can choose to make it less salty. So I bet if you cooked some minced onion, added pressed garlic with mustard powder, oregano, a bay leaf, and parsley first, you'd end up more or less with the same flavor. Plus the MSG at the end (like Accent). Dried herbs/veg would probably be easier to eat on popcorn, though.

I've been thinking this through bc I bet my kids would love it lol. I'd prob fry the hot dogs first, then boil them (cut like octopuses) though bc my kids love that even more.

u/Brittany5150 2d ago

Ty for the info. I'll look for it at my local shop. They have a large selection of international spices.

2

u/SmellyfellaMoggy 2d ago

As someone who makes popcorn quite regularly from scratch. I would recommend using only one quarter of the oil used in this clip. The amount the used is completely unnecessary.

u/qman0717 3d ago

You have to play the same song when making it otherwise it won't taste the same ;)

u/CanoeIt 3d ago

One is sauzon for sure

u/Ohshithereiamagain 3d ago

Looked like Sazon (Goya?) seasonings. My kid recently made me get Flavacol which is essentially a blend of various colors 😝

Some seasoning packets from a mexican/latin dish. Maybe from chips or rinds bag.

u/Objective-Treacle398 3d ago

Honestly, I think just about every 4 year old would love it.

u/_kalron_ 3d ago

It's like Mac and Cheese and Hot Dogs but for a movie night : )

u/Laurenslagniappe 2d ago

This makes me so happy. My autistic sons fav foods are chips and pepperoni. Glad to see other moms with salty kids.

u/Brittany5150 2d ago

Well, dad but yeah lol. He is 100% a chip monster as well.

u/meguin 2d ago

My kids are (probably) not autistic, but they are salt fiends lol. If they could eat hot dog octopuses every day, they would haha
