To be fair A.S, the Irish sausages beat the british sausages hands down, same as the black and white puddings, I wish we would ban the british sausages in England and import the Irish stuff, always bring shed loads of sausages, black and white pudding back any time I go over, luckily they do it all at the airport.

The Clonakilty ones are the best. I bought Irish sausages in Sainsbury's some years ago - they were the wrong size to start with. There used to be 100s of types of British sausage - often regional. Probably best to ask a butcher rather than bother with the supermarket.

Yeah, but none touch the Irish ones, same as the pudding, think its the spices added, and the black pudding has no or very little fat, the english stuff has lumps of it. Over the years, i bought those richmond "Irish recipe" sausages twice,they were terrible, only bought them twice because I thought there must of been a mistake in the first lot. The cumberland type are ok to be fair, but not anything like the Irish taste, but steer clear of the Richmond next time you are over.

My sister had my cousins from the West near you over, farmers, big appetites, she went to town on the breakfast, sausage, bacon, eggs, tomato, beans, black pudding, no stone unturned. She took the plates back and was shocked to see the sausages were the only thing left on the plate.

To give you some idea of how tasteless english sausages are the customs declaration forms have 'merde' written on them.

Ha, had to look it up but wouldn"t suprise me. We do get some stuff right over here but sausages and black pudding aren"t them.

Rather than reduce the price I think supermarkets will reduce quality.

I look up the reviews on Tesco before buying and I often get 'this is not so good as previously' indicating this.

Some of the stuff I am keen on gets really panned there so what do you do.

Cheap sausages a very false economy, but they don't have anything that you would call quality on sale either.

Should be giving up meat anyway1

You are asking for trouble with some on here-the usual suspects, with that last line you woke cnunt! But yeah, if you can"t get any quality stuff a handfull of nuts and half a bowl of fruit probaby does you better and twice as tasty!

The cheapest meat always sells. The biggest purchasers are the food manufacturers and restaurants. Generally they aren't too sensitive to quality, only to price.

So we shall be importing some right rubbish very soon.

It is interesting to note that according to the WWF Australia produces more food related emissions per capita than Argentina and Brazil and WAY more than the UK. But of course that doesn't get priced in.

So who was happy about our new trade agreement with Australia?

And by the way, look at the importance of the EU to the industry. 70%, 90% and 95% of pig meat, beef and sheep meat exports respectively.

Apparently, chlorinated chicken adds to the flavor and any welts or extra leg, second head ,on the animal is given free by the farmers!

0% income tax on people earning under 50K a year would help for starters. Maybe raise VAT 1% to counter that, I've always said Income taxes are the main reason you can't fill lower paid jobs.

Perhaps but we should first stop paying people to sit at home. The hospitality industry is crying out for workers and those workers are being furloughed.

Furlough needs stopping asap.
I have heard of two restaurants now that can't open due to lack of staff - they were furloughed but when they were asked to come back they either resigned or said it wasn't safe yet.
Covid has caused this more than Brexit sadly.
