Healthy Eating

[David Spencer]

Now, before I start, this isn't meant as a snarl against the concept of eating sensibly. It's more observational, and a comment on how things have changed.
Not always, necessarily, for the better in every respect.
Tonight's dinner was going to be "toad in the hole", so I set about making it as shown by my mum and my (Irish) grandmother: sausages into the oven on the large tray (ceramic dish, here) the ensemble will cook in.
While they cooked, for 20 minutes, and got nice and hot, with their fat leaching onto the dish (I pricked them first to allow this), I prepped the vegetables and made the batter.
It was time to retrieve the sausages, so out they came, ready for the batter to be poured on.
No oil in the dish.
WTF??
They were basically devoid of fat.
So, "TITH" cannot be cooked as I've done it for years, because someone sabotaged the sausages. I'll never trust them again.

Maybe its a reference to old school competition judging when on occasion we've all felt 'TOED IN THE HOLE'

I had homemade steak and Guinness pie, paprika chips and peas.
That's why I'm becoming a lard arse.

Otto von Bismarck said we should not know how two things are made.... one was the law

I never eat sausages , it's only the left over rubbish that go into them . There' an old saying "every thing from a pig but the squeak goes into a sausage ".

Love it!

I too don't eat sausages......and I speak as one who was brought up on that
Cornish 'delicacy' called 'Hogs Pudding'. It's a miracle I'm still alive..........

I like big...
Chips, and I cannot lie
And mushy peas make me high
On a plate or a dish
With a nice bit of fish
Or a steak n' kidney pie
I like to get chunkyyyy

Everyone knows that the human diet should consist not of sausages but primarily of vegetables. My personal favorite vegetable is the jelly bean.

SOS....... Save our Sausages.
Especially when they're covered in fried unions....not necessarily healthy, but very tasty.

I love a fried union

Any sandwich eaten on a full day's hike (today, in the North York Moors National Park) tastes like paradise.
