As I'm sitting here bored with a head full of germs feeling none to kindly towards my fellow creatures, I shall complain about the appalling quality of the sausages at the Skeptics meetings. There is no way those abhominations have ever been anywhere near anything resembling the edible parts of a pig. More chips, more onion rings, death to those fingers of Satan.

You believe in Satan? :lol:

Hope you feel better

You would if you'd tasted one of them

Hi Tessa

I'm sorry you're not feeling well!

I'll ask Greg for more Onion rings for tonight! How's that?

Yes! More Onion Rings, less dead pig bits.

No Bob!

More Onions Rings! More Dead Pig Bits! (How else are we going to keep ourselves free from Muslim Fundamentalists?)

I have no problem with dead pig bits, I'm just fussy which bits of the dead pig they are. I strongly suspect those sausages are made of the bits that in no way ressemble meat.

More onion rings - yay.

Greg, the owner of the pub, told me there'd be extra onion rings!

Horray!

(But do you worry about which bit of the onion...)

Strangely enough, I don't. But then, onions don't have trotters, eyelids, arses and other unsavoury parts. Do the health and safety people know about those sausages?

Unless you're a vegetarian, it makes little sense to distinguish one part of a dead pig from another. Pigs trotters are delicious and pigs ears, properly cooked are arguably the best bit of the pig. I've never knowingly eaten pig genitals, but I would if offered them; I'll bet they're really tasty too.

As a vegetarian, I don't care which bits of a pig are in those "satan's fingers" sausages. Why would I want to distinguish one bit of a dead pig from another? It's all dead pig and it's not passing through my colon.

How about some nice healthy quorn sausages to go with the onion rings. Who cares which bit of the fungus they put in it?

When I went to France I ate cows nose...do I win???

Seriously though, having never yet been to a skeptics meeting I'm quite impressed by the fact you had sausages, the word 'buffet' always made me think of limp sandwiches and salt and vinegar crisps...but hot food!! Crikey......

Yours (deeply impressed)

I would much rather have some decent veggie sausages than those abominations. Cauldron Food's Lincolnshire ones are very nice.

All for veggie sausages. When I was a red meat eater I still prefered veggie suasages instead anyway.

What is wrong with quorn sausages? There seems to be a new internet myth spreading over these as with aspartame. Is there any real evidence of problems? If OTOH you just dont like the taste then fair enough.

I have never knowingly eaten them. They may well be superb. I don't like the Linda McCartney ones - are they quorn?
