Bite into a vegan hot dog at IKEA US and UK

Something tasty is happening all across the UK and US. Today the vegan hot dog hits IKEA stores all over UK and the US. Even though it took 37 years after the regular hot dog to arrive we’re rejoicing nonetheless.

IKEA started testing vegan hot dog recipes earlier this year at their Malmö store and rolled out the final version across European stores last month. The plant-based goodie exceeded forecasted sales by selling over one million hot dogs to date, as reported in Forbes.

The new vegan hot dog is made from a vegan recipe, with ingredients that include kale, red lentils, carrots, and ginger. IKEA Food Services did caution that the hot dog bun can differ from market to market and in some, it may not be vegan. In some IKEA markets, the bun is also suitable for vegans.

It comes topped with pickled red cabbage, sweet and spicy mustard, and toasted onions. And it sells for only $0.75. That’s a mouth-watering price, for sure.

As for other countries, as usual, there is no news when we’ll get to sample it. If ever.

So for you lucky people out there, have you tried IKEA’s vegan hot dog yet? Let us know what you think.

Mind the gap: Fit IKEA MALM over a tall baseboard

I forgot one thing when I ordered the MALM dresser : The baseboards in my apartment are very tall and very wide. So, when I installed it, I had a 4 cm gap between the wall and the back of the cabinet which was not aesthetically possible for me. As it is not possible to cut the back of dresser at the bottom to leave room for the tall baseboard, I decided that MALM should be raised. And it was much simpler than I had imagined. You’ll need: A MALM dresser (mine is a 6-drawer chest) Six oak bed legs (I think five would have been enough, but while I was there …) 6 mounting plates A piece of plywood the size of the bottom of the cabinet (I went to the hardware store next door, it cost me less than 5€) Screws White adhesive edging tape How to raise the MALM dresser above a tall baseboard Place the MALM upside down. Fix the plywood onto the underside of the MALM with screws. Predrill holes for the leg screws (if you have the same baseboard problem as me, make sure you measur...

IKEA KALLAX Queen Storage Bed

I built this prior to knowing this website existed, this probably would have saved some contemplation. For difficulty reference, I am no carpenter (electrician actually) and I built it with my right hand in a cast. We bought an old house with original hardwood flooring from the 40s so we were very concerned about damaging it. The casters on a normal bed frame put a lot of pressure on a small surface and we didn’t want it dented or damaged if things started a rockin …. Plus, a 40′s house has virtually no storage as you only needed 3 pairs of pants back then. IKEA material : 3 x KALLAX shelf units (4) 4 x KALLAX drawer kits 8 x KALLAX fabric boxes Non-IKEA material : 4 x 2×4 A grade (saves time) 2 x 2×6 2 x sheets 1/2″ plywood (what ever grade you want) 25ft x iron-on edge trim 100 x 3″ #8 wood screws 20 x 1-1/4″ #8 wood screws satin white paint Tools (I used) : Tape measure Drill w/ 1/8″ bit for piloting holes Impact driver for screws Table saw Miter saw Ass...
