Aporkalypse Comin'! Oh no.
No bacon with scrambled eggies?

might need some oinkment......
Might have to break into the piggy bank to pay for it.
Don't go bacon my heart, syd!
Anyone for some....Bacon strips?

I'd prefer chicken over pork anyday.
Me, I prefer the hybrids myself, picken or chork... either will do.

Eat. Hurl. Repeat.
Bacon needs a little company...

What's that black stuff just above the tomato?
black pudding... 

Just read the contents, syd. I do hope that "processed" means it's been cooked well... for the obvious reasons.
yep... well boiled up... I've been eating it since I was 8 and I'm still around...
couldn't eat horses though.....
what is it with Scandinavians and horsemeat...
Glad to hear!
The thought of eating a horse just makes me sad... not a rational objection, I admit, but Col. Potter wouldn't do that.
Aw FFS.... That 'stuff' is not even fit for a starving dog to eat....
I guess you guys/girls/girlymen won't be visiting China any time soon......
nup..... not into Chicken Chow Meow either...
I guess you'd not be wanting my recipe for Haggis then....
At first I thought that pic of black pudding was a joke. Not to mention the image that came to mind. Ooohhh.....no!
Glad to hear it isn't. Whew!
Indeed, there are still parts of the world which don't have black pudding. Or, would you believe, pork pie!
How primitive.
I know....Florida is one of them.... I find myself teasing our li'l black puddin' lovin' pommie skinner there quite frequently...
hence having the picture so handy...
When living in Tasmania I used to frequent 'Oliver's Meats' in the Quadrant Mall, Launceston to get my supplies of black pudding and traditional pork pies... and none of this mass produced rubbish, either. No, Doug used to make it all himself, fresh and on the premises. He also made a top notch hogs pudding as well... YUM! Sadly, Doug had to retire due to ill health, but I was there on closing day to get the very last of these succulent morsels for a mere fraction of their regular prices... like he gave them to me for being a loyal and regular customer over.
Suddenly Tassie doesn't sound such a bad place.
Yeah, Doug's great grandfather established Olivers Meats in 1848 when he arrived from the UK, and the black pudding, hogs pudding and pork pies were made with traditional English recipes handed down through the family.
my recipe for haggis comes from Tasmania.... from the National Trust Recipe Book.... it is an authentic....very traditional....recipe....from scratch.... not for the faint hearted to even read....
Tassie has some wonderful food industries/endeavours down there... smoked fish... cheeses...truffles.... wines...etc. etc.... thinking of another drive around tour.... pity they stopped the ferry leaving from Sydney... gotta drive back to Melb to catch it now... mind you... wouldn't mind a coupla days in Melb either... believe it's changed quite a bit since I left...
Okay......I admit ignorance. What the heck is black pudding. Being from Brooklyn I've never heard of such a thing.
If this creates a world-wide shortage of Spam, then it's not all bad news.
