Help answer this question below.
Actually every few years they DO sell hot dogs it's only for a few months every few years though/
the meat is too expensive for them and too pure

I live in UK and I remember for a while they did this Red Bag or something, can't remember what they called it. Well a hot dog was an option with that and it came with a CD that had movie previews and stuff on it.
Maybe because selling a McDonalds Dog sounds a bit untasty.
Here are some answers I found on AB. It is a question that has been asked before.

McDonald's is a franchise based business that allows the owner of each store to choose items available on their menu based on geographical location. Meaning that, even thought every McDonald's you will ever see serves the BigMac, it isn't actually required of that store to offer that sandwich if predicted sales are so low that it would not be in the best interest of the consumer and in turn the owners. Sorry, the BigMac is a extreme and unrealistic example of my point; McDonald's menu is very broad in respect to alternative foods not usually seen over The ones that accompany combo #'s. McDonald's in Texas offer the Bratwurst Sausage with bun and Sour kraut as a seasonal item. Also the McRib is a regular item in some stores as well. Some McDonald's may also offer items that aren't on any McDonald's menus: such as the So Cal McD's that offered fresh Cappuccinos and Lattes. They were given permission by corporate McD's to serve the drink as long as the preparation and handling routine was kept safe for all involved by following basic food handling procedures for such food items as milk and hot steam... All in all, I would say it is safe to assume that with all the flexibility given to individual McD's stores to cater their menu selection more appropriately for their consumer base - that there is somewhere that McD's does serve plain ol' hot dogs.
My first answer so be kind on criticism, or not. Oh, I worked for McD's for around 4 years off and on and was "shift manager/trainer/fry boy... " KrispyKreemD

Because old mc donald had a farm E I E I Oh..
And on that farm he had no dogs E I E I Oh..
Because! They'll name them McWeiners!!! D:
The reason why McDonalds does not sell hot dogs is mainly because when Ronald McDonald was only 17 he was chopping up hot dogs and accidentally mistaken his dick for a hot dog and chopped it off. In conclusion, that is why McDonalds prohibits the selling of hot dogs.

Its because they sell hamburgers and other stuff like apple slices mmm apple slices
srry im tired :p
