With half the fat of traditional beef franks, these bun-length, skinless beef franks are made with lean beef and Nathan's original seasonings, providing a healthier option.

"It's important for us to always find new ways to please those who enjoy Nathan's," said Wayne Norbitz, president of Nathan's Famous, Inc. "Our 50% reduced-fat beef franks variety is a great solution for those looking for a healthier option, but still craving the taste they have come to expect from Nathan's Famous."
