Nathan's Hot Dog Calories

A single Nathan's Famous Skinless Beef Frank, weighing approximately 47 grams, contains 150 calories. The majority of these calories come from its fat content, followed by protein.

Understanding your daily needs with a maintenance calorie calculator helps place foods like hot dogs in the context of your overall diet.
