What Causes Diarrhea After Eating Hot Dogs?

After eating hot dogs I experience immediate explosive diarrhea along with severe gas and cramps. It is usually about 20 to 40 mins after eating. The stool is usually very watery and foamy but no abnormal color or blood. This is the only food that causes these symptoms. What could be the cause? How is it possible to have food be excreted so quickly after eating?

HI
Well come to HCM
Although the symptoms are very nonspecific but this can not be ruled out for infection and condition can be managed on tentative basis and for that best option is 'Tab Metronidazole 400 mg twice in day for five days' this would be fine soon, hope this information helps, take care have a nice day.
