Sausages! I am told that the humble sausage contains (quite literally) the rubbish that can't be used elsewhere. Could that be true, does anybody know, is it really rubbish meat disguised and so when they say it contains 70% beef, pork etc are we are having the wool pulled over our eye's?

Wonder if the manufacturer's will comment here?

I love seafood, but to think of it made into sausage almost seems a waste of good seafood ! LOl..sorry Krissy...but have ALWAYS loved new england's coastal seafood...and never knew of any made into sausages, which , I also am quite fond of....

find a good butcher who makes his own with natural skins not the synthetic ones and you cant go wrong------another tip is if you are having a fresh turkey at christmas ask the butcher to "draw the sinews" that is to make sure the legs are tender and not chewey a lot of butchers just chop the feet off which is laziness.

Yep...make your own "Jerky" ins tead...Chef Horst Megar has out an Seafood sausage...you make the filling with sole or crab and some  white wine, little broth and then you sqeeze it in an decorator's tube down the center of Saran Wrap...has to be that kind of plastic wrapbecause it's like "shrinky dink" wrap....and you boil this long sauage chain for so many mintutes until it shrinks well. and then take them out and separate the links and add an mustard or Hollandiase Sauce over them and serve. Very good.
