A type of sausage

Hello,
I have to think of a name for a sausage that is really cheap, edible, but far from delicatesse . In my language it is literally called sausage for common people (I know it sounds terribly discriminating). Any suggestions?

'Table sausage'? We just use 'sausage'.

What about folk sausage?

Just as bad as 'table sausage'. If we don't have it in the language, then anything you make up will sound strange. The best I can suggest is plain or ordinary sausage, but even that is a bit odd, since we only have 'sausage' + descriptive clause/phrase.

Hi guys,

Sounds to me like a hot-dog.

Yes, I should have thought of that, but I wouldn't have hyphenated it. Or a frankfurter.

Thank you.
Frankfurter is another, different type of sausage, so I can't use that.
Thank you all.
