Northern Ireland Sausages

6541

I was in Lidl in the south of Ireland and I saw in the sausage section sausages labelled Northern Ireland Sausages. I opted for any other sausages.
Where do you stand on Northern Ireland Sausages ?

More likely to be Irish than some of the Patagonian muc passed off as Irish by certain companies.

I don't. It makes a terrible mess.

If you look, most stuff like meat milk etc in Lidl and Aldi comes from the north.
The worrying part is sometimes the meat comes from parts unknown but as long as it’s packaged in NI it can be labelled as from NI.

Pretty sure that's across the board. Stuff is regularly labelled Irish that's only packaged here. It's not just NI.

I'll always remember the one and only time I visited Bulgaria, we went to the sunny beach resort, prob 10 years ago now.

Anyway, first morning wondering around thinking of having a bite to eat, we were being enticed in to one of the couple of Irish pubs there.

"BEEST IRISH POOB IN ZUNNY BEETCH.... GOOD IRISH BREAKFAST.... SOOOPERQUEEEN SAUSAGES" the lad was shouting.


Got me over the line anyway.

There was an excessive use of the word sausage in that post.

If you buy for example, a chicken kiev that states that it was made using Irish chicken, then the chicken came from Ireland. If it says that it was produced in Ireland, the Chicken probably came from the Netherlands, or even Thailand.

Cookstown sausages is where it's at

NI sausages are perfect for Bangors and mash.

If you eat them you'll turn into a Protestant.

I think we should retaliate by selling republican sausages into the north and when eaten by the populace they will turn into Catholics and that way we can reclaim the occupied 6 that the British stole from us during the great potato famine of 1916.

Pork product arms race.

I buy them but then I'm a contrary so and so. The only shock is that they are branded as being Northern sausages rather than given a generic "sounds like a farm" branding.

If they are Protestant sausages maybe we should be checking them for Catholic dna. Pigs will eat anything and can clear a human corpse of flesh in 19 minutes.

In the same bewildering, nostalgic vacuum of taste inhabited by Barry's tea and Erin soup, one would imagine.

Protestant beef sausages would have no uptake here in the free 26.

Cows make steaks and burgers. Pigs make sausages. That's it. Sausages should not be made of Turkey, beef or any other animal and quorn should not exist in any form.

I generally try to buy Irish so I wouldn't be purchasing UK imports and certainly not agricultural products or derivatives

UK sausages tend to taste very different to ones down here. I'm not one for a fry up myself but I got one in ones of the pubs in Liverpool years ago and the sausages were awful. Nowhere near as nice as Superquinn sausages.
