    It is a bag of dried blood pellets soaked with water and mixed with a bag of ground seed mixture. The Big Mac of the butchery business.
    Depends on where you get it from and who makes it.

      It is 2 bags of dried produce mixed with a bucket of water, rammed into a sausage machine and squirted into a black bag. I made the stuff for years.

        A chef friend of mine makes it, and butchers his own produce so not quite the stuff you made.

        Very much into proper nose to tail eating.

          You made the crap cheapo kind by the sound of it, when they show people making the decent kind on TV it's not done that way. Is this indicative of the general quality of your wares from back then?

              He will definetly not be using fresh blood, he will have a bag of dried blood which will be mixed with the other bag he got from the suppliers.

              You cling onto what you think happens based upon your mate's mate, you of course know more than me about the butchery business based upon a mate's mate.

                  The chef is a close mate and btw my family were butchers and farmers, so I know quite a lot about butchery

                  As for my "mate" he has to use dried blood for commercial use but for personal use we have made it using fresh.

                  Oh and btw I'm a trained chef myself.

                    I'd concentrate on the rugby and not make rude comments like that.
