        Toulouse sausage - tripe?

        I used to get Toulouse sausage from Waitrose 10 years ago and it was great, lots of garlic and a bouncy texture.

        I was told it was the tripe.

        These days no tripe in sausage thus no longer a true toulouse sausage.

        Is this correct?

It's clear that minestrone knows a whole lot about the typical work of a butcher working to produce produce (!) for supermarket value ranges, but making something a bit more unusual is the work of a specialist and thus 5 years' service doesn't really mean much - even wikipedia doesn't agree with him
              After the BSE nightmare liquid blood was not allowed to be used, it had to be boiled to the point where the blood became a powder and pelleted.

              The BSE hysteria shut my shop and my boss was working for a supermarket until a few years ago when he got his own shop again. BSE nearly killed the butcher business and Atkins got it back again.

              I just wish people were bettered informed and knowledgeable about the meat industry, the cow is shot in the back of the neck with a bolt gun, the exposed gap in the spine is used to insert the cane which is rammed down its spine, twisted a few times and a few seconds later someone comes up and cuts its belly open to spill out about 150kg of intestine into a bucket, blood poring everywhere.

              We are so disconnected with where our food comes from, black pudding it not the work of an artisan, it is 2 bags and a bucket of water.

                From what I read online black pudding in this country is made from pigs blood. Can't remember pigs having BSE or equivalent (Porcine spongiform encephalopathy?)

                Please report back on the lesser known PSE outbreak which has caused these constraints.

                    I had this in Cologne, superb.

                    Himmel und Ääd (heaven and earth), a combination of potatoes, blood sausage and applesauce for relish.

                      In related news Minestrone explains

                      Sex. is just the rubbing together of two bits of lubricated flesh that happen to be full of nerve endings that are connected to a 'pleaseure centre' in the brain. an orgasm can be triggered by putting a knitting needle in your ear and hotting the right spot. sex is just two bags of water that think they are sentient thinking they are having a good time. its baloney.

                      Spirituality. You think it's a nice sunset ? you think you are seeing a beautiful baby ? you are enjoying being in a cathedral , close to your God ? Actually , its just a bunch of reflected photons that are impinging on your eyeballs, being transmitted to your brain and triggereing an accidental phenomonen. its baloney.

                      Pooing. So you enjoyed that Sh1te did you ? its just a natural biological function that prevents you filling up and bursting. You might have thought it was better than sex, but as we know, thats baloney as well.


                      Art. its just airy fairy baloney.



                      etc
