​Do your dream of hot dog slices, great fried balls of macaroni and cheese, and can't stop humming the Rice-A-Roni jingle? Well, we have got the teenage wet dream treat for you.

If you are lucky on Thursday or Saturday and the super cool clique at the 4505 Meats food stand at the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market feels like blessing you with "Frankaroni" written on their specials board, you can get to sit and eat at the proverbial cool lunch table.

They take the same 4505 housemade uncured hot dog that you know and, if you've met, already love, and slice up in macaroni and cheese gooeyness that is then fried to sweet golden perfection. It has crunch on the outside, soft richness on the inside and meat slices that you are hoping will be present in every bite.

The whole convenient combination of heart-attack fuel and summation of your dreams comes in a holdable square that you can eat with no utensils getting in your way. We hate to sound like an after-school special, but it's time to get selective about the wieners getting into your hot pocket!
