The Irish would claim that their sausages are superior, as would the English and also the Scots, and then there is a thing called a Cumberland sausage wiich is an immense thing that sort of curls round in a circle (actually several circles) It's often served with Yorkshire Pudding if you know what that is. Oh and it has to be covered in a good brown gravy.
Haggis is Scottish. Basically traditionally a Sheep's stomach stuffed with chopped up heart, liver, and lungs, with onion and spices.
No doubt someone is going to correct me on this rather crude description but that's ok, I'm willing to learn.

When I'm drunk I can't tell Irish and Scottish sausages apart.
I still remember some neon-pink sausage with fat bits that we were served when we stayed in a B&B in London about ten years ago. It didn't taste like it was made from meat.
Pablo, bangers contain no nitrites? Are they possibly naturally inert?

OK OK no added nitrates/nitrites to form nitrosamines. Yes they are fairly naturally inert until they get excited. Must be the added pumper-nickel.
Surely the worlds greatest, leanest,most healthy, economical,ecologicaly friendly hotdogs come from Australia?

Has some chilli smoked organic pork sausages at the work BBQ yesterday. OK but I've had better.
Forgot to mention the Merlot and Cracked Pepper sausages were good. And not a hot dog in sight.
You lot get Merlot at work parties? Dang, our barristers knocked that off awhile back. We aren't even allowed to have one beer off campus at lunch. Or are you saying the sausages got the Merlot?

We have alcohol at every opportunity. Multiple bottles of wine (Australian and imported) and beer at lunch BBQ and then back into it seriously this time for Beer o'clock at 4:00pm. As the captain of a visiting U.S aircraft carrier said to his assembled troops when entering Sydney Harbour a while back. At the end of his speech about the wonders of Oz and Sydney in particular "do not get in a drinking contest with these guys as they will kill you". Not sure what that says about us?

Funny that about consuming alcohol at work. In Germany, laborers used to be allowed to drink beer on the job. Especially brick layers and laborers in construction were infamous for drinking huge quantities of beer on the job (hot summers!). People would give their plumber or carpenter a crate of beer as a tip or just a few beers for their break. Drinking on the job has become illegal, some time in the '90s, I believe. I'm not sure if too many houses were built crooked or something!
We like Boars Head. I put hot sweet mustard from Trader Joe's. Those of you asking for a low fat dog that tastes good... Trader Joe's has hot dogs made from buffalo meat. I haven't had them in a while, but I remember liking them.

Needs more mustard.
When I was a kid, I worked for Ted's Hot Dogs in Buffalo, NY.
They are really known all over the country.
What an experience, people would come from all over to get a grilled dog.
That restaurant could be duplicated very easy anywhere in the country, but people still keep coming every day.

Anybody know the Doggie Diner? I'm sure they had hotdogs on the menu when they were still operatinng. At least they still have the dachshund mascot!
I love a good Hot Dog, but I too, am conserned about Sodium Nitrate.
Supposedly Vitamin C can counter the effects of Sodium Nitrate, if consumed at the same time.
Do a Google Search but here is one link: (HaHa, LINK!!!!)

Being from Illinois, shouldn't you be wanting to lynch me for putting ketchup on my dog?
Yeah, that's pretty much a felony around Chicago. Some places will put ketchup on your dog, but you have to ask for it, as it is not considered normal. Other places will not even put it on if you ask for it.
Haggis is traditionally Scottish. Do the Irish have version of it?
I had some in Edinborough and it wasn't bad.
