#16... Louis if you are always eating peas do you ever think of all the funny noise”s you may be making? JS.

Well he can blame it on old george the donkey

With reference to some comments regarding cannibalism, perhaps we're all guilty on occasion- take Shepherds pie, or for the veggies amongst us the popular Ploughmans. I'm sure other examples might spring to mind aboard here, but be wary of our Postfinder General who sometimes issues warnings if we tend to wander off course.

Talking of food and like and dislikes, does anyone remember the trays of brawn put out for the night watches on most of the trampers i worked on, bloody horrible stuff, don't think it ever got eaten , straight into the rosie and fed to the fish, kt

and that other stalwart 'sandwich spread' sandwiches which looked liked it had been eaten before and regurgitated, again food for the fishes.

Gentleman's Relish- what was that all about?

You may have seen it as well the 'new meta' made with all vegetables.
Nothing new here as back in the late 60's there was some meat extenders made from Soy.

As to sausages, I recall when in any Oz port we were allowed to bring any stores on board except sausages.
We were told the main ingredients were sawdust, horn and hoof ground down, left over bits of skin all in a plastic tube.
The basic snag here in Oz has not changed since then and is very popular with the BBQ, outside Bunnings on a Saturday morning they sell bucket loads of them in a slice.

But we have matured and now have a good selection of real sausages.

As to the veg feeling pain, next time i cut a cabbage from the garden I will listen very carefully

Nothing like a 'flake' and chips. Also one of the best for curries and chowder.

[Colin Wood]

As a lion, love sizzling sausages at Bunning, as very profitable,, especially with families on Sunday's. A local 'Woolies' turned very green and is putting out sausages without the plastic rapping. Absolutely impossible to keep in one piece so we have changed our suppliers to Coles.
