Negligible Oleandrin Content of Hot Dogs Cooked on Nerium oleander Skewers [PDF]
The Nerium oleander plant contains cardenolides that may cause human poisoning when ingested. A long-standing belief holds that it is possible to be poisoned by eating hot dogs or other foods cooked on Nerium oleander branch skewers. Oleandrin levels in frankfurters cooked on fresh and dry Nerium oleander skewers were measured.Hot dogs were cooked ...
