  4. One thing I really miss is kidneys. I used to love those and you rarely see them now .Yet when I go to France and also Luxembourg or Spain they are frequently on restaurant menus. Cooked in wine or sherry they are lovely. It makes you wonder why chef ,(cooks) here complain about the cost of ingredients and not being able to make profits. Yet generally don't use these cheaper often delicious cuts of meat and offal.
  5. Yes I think you're right. Now that Tesco are available in more areas I think several co-ops are losing volume and so making extra margin on what they do sell to compensate. Certainly their smaller stores are very much convenience and priced accordingly.
  6. I think you are all getting confused This has nothing to do with pigs and sausages. Surely it is how we get our eggs From Battery Hens
  7. Just to help you ,here are the ingredients . I don't think they would have been very different in a 97,%version INGREDIENTS: Pork (90%), Water, Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Salt, Acidity Regulator (Calcium Lactate), White Pepper, Sage, Stabilisers (Tetrasodium Diphosphate, Disodium Diphosphate), Coriander, Preservative (Sodium Metabisulphite), Nutmeg, Dextrose, Bamboo Fibre, Caramelised Sugar Syrup, Colour (Paprika Extract). Hope that helps 😜
  8. Generally pork sausage must contain a minimum of 42 percent meat, but the minimum is 32 percent meat, if the package is labelled as generic sausage.
  9. As others have said these changes have been going on for generations. Hansard reports. vol. 485 Debated Wednesday 14th March. 1951 "SAUSAGE (MEAT CONTENT) Sausages (Meat Content) Volume 485: debated on Wednesday 14 March 1951 Download text Sausages (Meat Content) Volume 485: debated on Wednesday 14 March text (Meat Content) Volume 485: debated on Wednesday 14 March 1951 DtextSausaes (Meat Content) Volume 485: debnesday 14 March 1951 Download text
  10. IOM why are you putting Confused emojis against everything .All I did was cut and paste part of an article from an edition of the Telegraph .How can you possibly find the wording of that confusing. ? There weren't even any long words in it.
  11. The following news item was from The Telegraph in July 2023 and says the reduction had happened 4 years before in 2019 Tesco, Britain’s leading food retailer, has reduced the pork content of its Finest range from 97 per cent four years ago to 90 per cent. Premium sausages at Marks & Spencer have gone from 97 per cent to 90 per cent over the same period, and the standard ones from 78 per cent to 75 per cent.
  12. 10 year plans are a government ploy for doing nothing. Do you remember there was a Road Safety Strategy 2019 -2029 I wonder when the last time that that document was taken out of the dark cupboard. If anything is queried you are told it is under constant review and that a full analysis will be done when all the data is collated and analysed . Politicians love 10 year plans.
