I personally wouldn't eat it but heat from me just for annoying the PC brigade - I'll choose what I eat if it's all the same to you!

Heart attack in a tin. This should be banned. Come on Government - no wonder the NHS is in debt treating people as a result of this garbage.

The sausages are probably going to be made out of god knows what so not for me, and I'm not saying these are good at all, but the fact they're in lard may not be such a big issue.Although the idea of cooking in Lard may sound like instant heart attack to many, a lot of people are now thinking that because its a very stable fat, real butter and non hydrogenated lard may actually be better, and healthier to use than the many processed oils & margarines we are led to believe are healthy.I don't know for sure, but I'm interested to find out more as I've become very aware of how bad trans fats are for you, and how so many supposedly healthier products contain them.

Anyway, since this is a 'cult' product, it needs some heat ...how else you going to cook them! Good Fun post

If the Jeremy Kyle show was edible, this is what it'd look and taste like.

Think I may treat the in-laws to some when they come round at the weekend.

nothing wrong with it. You'll notice that good old pre-nanny state 1980s goodness flavour. Like golden wonder crisps used to taste in 1988 before stupid people ate 20 bags a day and got them banned.

The pic looks like the contents of a bin emptied into cheap canned soup, I don't think it's as healthy as the sausages. Heat from me, asuming that they are real sausages with the minimum meat content,

BTW, a lot of you will appreciate things like this when you get older and can't find your teeth oO

Is it mechanically recovered meat? I believe they have machines that scrape the meat off the carcass, and then the remaining bits are hosed off with a jet wash and collected. And that's why I don't eat most hot dogs.

I wouldn't feed this to my dog.

Me neither, what a waste!

Are these made using mechanical reclaimed meat?

Does it matter ?

In 25 years when the world food crisis has exploded and the only sustainable food source is insect farming, you'll look back in fondness on the days you could get real meat (even if it was lips n ****)

No. You and anyone else who thinks that natural animals fats like lard lead to bad health need to watch this video:

Even ignoring the health argument as we're all bargain hunters on here; grains, sugar and vegetable oils are ridiculously cheap to produce (at the cost of the environment), so next time you are buying 90% less saturated fat with 90% more vegetable oils and sugar, consider why the price is the same when the production costs have massively dropped.

i'd rather eat lard than a yellow faux butter spread!

Tell that to an ethinopitan.........

Good luck finding one of those.

Stomach Churning.....UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

who's voting for this???

I don't understand. is the lard to cook them in or to eat?

*Edit, ahhh I see, they are for camping and the like, where you can fry them in a pan without need to have cooking oil.*

Of course they are, 99% of tinned (beens in sausages/meatballs etc etc) are made ground up lips, ar$eholes and bone. Other countries are more bothered about, the UK just carries on. Anything that tastes good is fine by me.

Yeah, it's the tin of sausages fault not our poor lifestyles! C'mon Cameron, show us the light!

People knock lard, but its better than margarines like flora. Man made fats cause heart disease along with excess sugar. Cut your sugar and eat more fat, that's the way to long life!

I used to think it meant that they used some electric metal shaver (like you see them cutting kebab meat with) and not squishing brains, spinal cord, bones and other 'waste' in a compressor until they can use it as a filler for such foods.Read lessRead more

Bloody hell, I've been eating this stuff all my life...

Oh well, if it tastes ok I guess i will continue.

Seeing as I posted this I can't resist the urge to grab a tin now.

Go on - and make sure you upload a youtube review!

wow - in lard - in 2012. awesome boldness!

I wouldn't feed this to my dog.

Worth it just for the lard.

Lard is expensive these days

Even better if you eat them straight from the tin.

I'm becoming a lard convert... The healing power of lard

Looks almost as delicious as this!

Theres plenty on Marklar.

They took our jobs.

These are the compo ration sausages we had in the forces in tins in 10 man ration packs in the 1980's they are fantastic and if ex servicemen could get hold of them they would be buying up loads of stock.
They come in tins with the lard in them so that we could empty them into a pan and cook away in the field. they are like skinless sausages and many of us simply boiled them in water.

But they'll already be cooked, so why not use the traditional brine?
