Richmond meatless Irish sausages are much nicer than Linda's overpriced bangers.

Are they nothing like their meat sausages? Because those are fucking toilet.

Yah, it's got to be the 70% outdoor-reared acorn-fed pork with cracked Tellicherry pepper and organic quinoa or nothing, darling. Isn't it nice to have sausages that really taste of sausages?

There's no need to misrepresent me as some sort of pretentious wanker who only eats fancy sausages, I don't mind cheap/basic sausages however Richmond sausages aren't particularly cheap yet are still fucking toilet.

They're awful sausages. I think the first time I bought them was at university when I was poor and only just finding my feet in the kitchen, but even then I found them shite. They have that brown, smooth uniform cylindrical appearance of a cheap sausage, so that earned them a tick, but I remember them being bland as fuck. A cheap shite sausage has its place - service station sausage butties, mainly - but Richmonds fail to pass even that threshold somehow.

That surprises me a bit; one of the reasons I know they're still a thing is because the sausages seem to be quite well received on here when vegetarian chat crops up.


I do like her sausages but I recently tried her fake fishcakes. The worst thing I've ever put in my mouth in my entire life. And that includes the time my dad made me chips when mum was away and brought me out the ketchup that had been sitting on the kitchen windowsill for the previous week. In the height of summer.  That must be approaching four decades ago and I can still taste it. I managed one small nibble of the fishcakes before chucking them out. I immediately realised my mistake, unlike with the tomato sauce. Yum yum, a lovely chip buttle smothered in ketch...aaaaaaaarrrrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhh

Known to be utter dogshit many years before being a foodie wanker was a thing.

Saying you don't like them is fine, but "Known to be dogshit" is a bit fucking dense, isn't it?

Arguing over sausages, the most processed of foods, is like arguing about which storey is best to jump from a building. Best avoided altogether.

Just tried these today after seeing your recommendation and these are now my favourite sausages, so thanks.

Richmond sausages are indeed shit and taste of nothing. And unlike Pukka Pies it's not because they've taken half the salt out - they were always shit and tasted of nothing.

One day, around 234 million years ago, it rained.

And didn't stop raining.

For 2 million years.

Surely it's always raining somewhere in the world?

This is true, I should clarify that it rained all over Pangaea for 2 mil years.

It's the same cloud as well. They get blown around by the wind.

Presumably there must have been somewhere it wasn't raining. Unless it was raining upwards.

They need some gristle and taste of hog anus otherwise they're just rusk paste.

I've told you a million times...

Surely the best storey to jump out of a building is (objectively) the ground floor?

i.e. The no-sausage option.
