[Closed] Oh Dear God!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

😀

Junkyard is right - I know veggies who have no problem murdering animals, they just don't like meat; and I know veggies who don't like to hurt fwuffy fings but still really like meat.

Aha!

I'm sure I've read/heard/dreamt that tomato sauce is positively good for you, because of special planty-chemical things in it, so lashings of tommy k is my solution to ward of the big C when partaking of a bacon and egg or sausage and egg, or sausage, bacon and egg buttie!

That explains a lot Derek. Richmond aren't proper sausages. They're impostors! I suspect they may be a sort of vegan plot.

This is what you want...

Look at the fat content per average sausage. Some 'standard' Sainsbury ones are 10g. Ridiculous but obvious really.

Tesco bacon has a wierd blobby white 'discharge' when you fry it.

Figures really. They are so full of Nitrates etc etc.

I do get nervous when hora speaks of "blobby white discharge".

*shudders a bit*

Hora - I get our sausage, bacon and burgers from the Big Bangers place I've linked too (They're at Rammy market on a Saturday morning). The difference between their stuff and supermarket shite is huge.

I have no idea if this means I'll get cancer or not

I thought it was a long known fact that nitrates in bacon were carcinogenic - but this was ok because they were considered less of a risk to health than eating uncured bacon and getting liver flukes

So they obviously work - we don't have liver flukes, and to see which is tastier compare images of carcinogenic bacon butty and liver flukes. i know which i'd prefer!

Nitrates are also found in redwine. 😯

I have some great vegetarian sausage recipes, in case anyone is interested?

Yes please.

Slightly off-topic, but why do vegetarians spend so much time and effort making their food look like meat again (veggie sausages, veggie burgers, quorn) ...

Because burgers and sausages are a convenient way of packaging protein.

the other obvious point is that meat is tasty even to a non meat eater, they dont object to the taste just the source

That's a rash generalisation I'm afraid.

So is alca-ma-shmol? So red wine ish good for youz. A bit. Possibly.

Nitrates are also found in redwine.

Isn't copper nitrate what you pay a shift-working policeman?

Because burgers and sausages are a convenient way of packaging protein.

Nah its because they are dry-humping their dinner plate trying to kid themselves that eating mushed up veg is 'as good' as a fat-assed burger

Slightly off-topic, but why do vegetarians spend so much time and effort making their food look like meat again (veggie sausages, veggie burgers, quorn) ...

In what way does a sausage or burger "look like meat"? (And since quorn comes in various sizes and shapes some of it might but lots of it doesn't). I'm definitely not a veggie - but I think you could strongly argue that sausages, burgers, mince etc are actually ways of making meat not look like meat! Either because it gives a nice texture / blend of flavours / size of item for eating or more cynically because you can grind any crappy bit of animal that most of the population would not find palatable and hide it in processed meat product.

Hora - are you thinking of sulphites in wine rather than nitrates?

Imagine if you had a sausage made from a pig's pancreas. What would you end up with there?

Yep Sulphites. 😳

Cougar if you want veggie sausage recipe (and the rest of you can try the recipe quietly at home, we wont tell!!) i'll post them tonight.
I haven't eaten meat for over 20 years.
Now i cook meat for the kids im even more repulsed by it.
Meat is definitely not tasty.
Id offer you all up for a nice veggie meal, but my dinning room is not big enough.

he other obvious point is that meat is tasty even to a non meat eater, they dont object to the taste just the source
That's a rash generalisation I'm afraid.

Personally I dont like food that tastes like meat but I suspect this issue divides the non meat eating community.

should have read it all then eh - looks like i agree with you 😉
granted it should have some in it but it would appear obvious I only mean some with the next sentence so in context its ok IMHO

I laugh in the fancy of danger.

iPad, or just a turn of phrase I'm unfamiliar with? 😛

Binners you are an [i]idiot[/i].

Any specific reason Fred? Or just generally?

I'm not disputing what is certainly a valid point BTW. Just wondered if there was a specific aspect of my behavior? I don't know why I'm asking really. Its not like I have any intention of addressing my obvious idiocy. Revel in your inner nob-head Fred! Are you with me brother? 😀

😆

Just stating facts, is all.

[i]I laugh in the fancy of danger.[/i]

does danger have nether regions to be laughed into?

I thought they could cure bacon these days...

Just polishing off a nice sausage, bacon, cancerous cyst and egg sandwich, mmmmm...........

Does eating cancerous cysts increase the risk of cancer? Or does it give immunity?

Back in the 70s we were told peanut butter gave you cancer, then we were told it was healthy.

won't somebody please think of the children's faces
[img] [/img]

so if I eat cancer, will it cure my bacon?

because you can grind any crappy bit of animal that most of the population would not find palatable and hide it in processed meat product.

Every thread no matter how tenuously vegetarian ends up with some angry moaning meat eater telling me how much of an unahppy moaner I am oh the irony.

ps you missed this bit out from your quote as it was not the view of a veggie was it

I'm definitely not a veggie

still you got it off your chest so hopefully you have cheered up a bit

reading the daily mail gives you cancer

http://hellokinsella.posterous.com/the-daily-mail-list-of-things-that-give-you-c

And maybe then they'll stop being such miserable pain in the arse whinging dullards.

Ahh not only do sausages give you cancer, clearly eating meat makes you angry.

Its 'roid rage from all the stuff in the "meat"

The incidence rate for pancreatic cancer is 13.6 per 100,000 men 10.7 per 100,000 women (per year) and it's largely incurable.
That's the end of today's happy thought.

I don't think those odds could possibly justify laying off the sausage butties.

What are the comparable 'getting hit by a bus' figures

[img] [/img]

I a sure we could arrange something for you Binners

EEK!!! I'm staying off the pavements and looking out for buses on HtN weekend 😀

should have read it all then eh - looks like i agree with you

Sorry, I was skimming. Cheerfully withdrawn.

And maybe then they'll stop being such miserable pain in the arse whinging dullards.

We're not whinging, I think you'll find. We're actually quite happy. Read back; in these discussions, most of the hostility comes from the carnivores and their genius insights into nutrition such as "you can't be vegetarian because you have teeth and shoes." It's probably all the hormones pumped into the burgers that makes you all so cross.

We also aren't so overwhelmingly overweight that we have to mention it in our usernames; maybe if you didn't shove so much lardy processed meat down your gullet you'd be SlimBloke instead, hmm?

Granted, you do get the occasional "meat is murder" PETA lunatic, but they're thankfully few and far between, and are far more annoying to us as we then get tarred with the same brush.

Reading the Grauniad gives you herpes. 😉

Bacon gives you cancer,Smoking will give me cancer, alcohol will give me cancer. Smelling someones disgusting flatulence will give me Cancer. Well to be honest, i'd rather go through life eating what i want, drinking what i want, exercising as much as i see fit and smoking as much as i want. Its my life, i will determine what happens in it.

I'd much rather die suddenley than end up as a resident in my place of work (Nursing home) not knowing what day of the week it is and pissing my pants. No thank you.

Coincidentally enough, we put my dad into such a place, in much the same condition, at the back end of last year as a direct result of him chain-smoking for 50 years. He wasn't lucky enough to get cancer though, vascular dementia got him first.

I wholeheartedly support the right to choice, and arguably it's far better to die a little earlier having actually [i]lived.[/i] But make it an informed choice, hey.

I am willimg to be a guinea pig for future bacon butty research.
1 per day slightly crispy with tomato sauce please.
Then I will post when I get cancer.
