Poor grammar, bullying and drunks.
I had two of these at lunch time and they are so, so delicious. Made with 90% pork from British, outdoor bred, RSPCA Assured pigs. Here's the important bits.
per 100g

Fat 19.7g
Sats 8.6g
Carbs 1.0g
Sugars 0.5g
Salt 1.3g
Protein 14.8g

And they are gluten free.
The only drawback is the price, at a whopping £3 for six sausages. We got them on offer at fifty pence off but still....
Lovely for a treat but I shall keep on looking for a cheaper alternative.

I love them, but the supermarkets in my town have stopped selling them. (Sainsburys, Tesco and Booths). I am distraught and have had to resort to Hecks, which have tough skins and need more cooking. I don't care how much they cost. They are worth it!

Please tell me where you got them from.

The brand Debbie & Andrews are delicious too and have a high-meat content, they are also gluten free.

TBH most of the supermarkets own premium range sausages are good and have a high meat content, they usually work out a lot cheaper than BF and D&A and taste no different.

Diet drinks - the artificial sweeteners taste vile.
Having to forswear foods I have loved all my life.
Trying to find low carb meals when eating out.
M&S and the Co-op both do sausages made from pork and very little else.

The M&S chipolatas are particularly nice.

I have to eat gluten free and Debbie and Andrew's are really good.

I am on a tight budget, so I look out for money off and sell by date reductions.

I've noticed that the carb content of Lidl sausages has gone down. Often 2 to 3 gms per sausage. And they pass my OH test.
Win-win.

I think I've had them or something similar. You can sometimes get 97% pork.

Costco do a wide range of gluten free and low carb sausages. I have tried lots and these are by far the best in my humble opinion.

Where did you buy your Black Farmers? As I said earlier, they have stopped selling them in my local supermarkets.

Mr B refers to them as 'my Beloved Black Farmers' and will clear the shelf and fill the freezer if he sees them on offer in the shops.

Since I am the Low Carbing Gluten Freer in the household, I like his attitude, but then object to him actually eating them. Especially when he has eaten the last sausage from the last pack...
