Easy!
Because you say to yourself one day, that you would really love a hot dog.

So you wander into your local supermarket and end up buying 10 hot dogs and 8 buns: you only really wanted one, but hey: you’re really hungry.
After a short period of eating hotdogs you have eaten eight of them and have two left over, but no buns! What to do! A dilly of a pickle, if ever there was one! Then it dawns on you! Another packet of buns.
Next day you realise that you have 6 bread buns, but nothing to put in them. Another conundrum. Soon you figure out a way around this impasse: another pack of hot dogs! Down to the local supermarket, and a few minutes later you are the proud owner of 10 shiny new hot dogs.
Six ketchup and mustard smothered snacks later, you run out of buns, with 4 hot dogs to go! This time it doesn't take you long to figure out the solution!
Another trip to the supermarket and four hot dogs later, you find yourself with a surplus of 4 buns.
Another pack of ten hot dogs. Another four delicious meals later. Another six left-over hot dogs.
To the supermarket! A pack of 8 bread rolls! Six tasty bread covered sausages! Two lonely bread rolls!
Back once more to the supermarket for another packet of hot dogs. Two quickly devoured hot dogs, and a remainder of eight naked frankfurters. One last pack of hot dogs rolls, and the job is complete.

So, next time you feel like having a hot dog, you must realise that you are getting yourself into a lot more than you bargained for. You are committing yourself to the eventual purchase of forty times what you had originally planned for! In short; it’s all a conspiracy to take your money and make you fat.
