I normally just get one REALLY bad migraine a month right before my period. I woke up yesterday with one and couldn't figure out why. It wasn't time for me to get it. Then I remembered I heard about this once. The nitrates in hot dogs can trigger migraines. All I ate this weekend pretty much were hot dogs! We went to Hershey Park for a company picnic and I ate two. I had gotten some earlier in the week because I was SO hungry for one. So I ate several on Saturday also. Does this happen to anyone else???

YUP! Hot dogs is considered *processed* meat which can trigger migraines. Strongly suggest that you stop eatting them.......beef, pork, chicken & the turkey ones. :(
