    I can't buy those lovely hunters chicken stuff you get in foil trays either cos there's two breasts in each pack and only one of me.
    Having one breast one day and another breast two days later hardly makes you a monomand.

    I'd really recommend researching the range of mini freezers out there, it would make such a huge difference. Such a shame to deny yourself a food that you like to eat.

    Agreed - I am not going to say this is the best deal , but have you not got space for something like :

    Once you start making proper MSE use of a freezer, you'll never want to downsize. Buy the largest you can accommodate and afford.

    Self contained flat - no bedroom. One end of this room has the kitchen area, Total room size is about 12'x10' at a guess.
    I have no idea how you survive!

    TBH that's why I suggested the mini freezer route for those in studio flats or similar.

    Wonder how much is lips trotters ears and tail ?

    Being born in the 50's I can tell you those are the best bits.

    It's only young wimps that think there is something bad about them.

    Brain's Faggots contain 4.5% fat so where do you get this idea that they're 'one of the most fattening foods on the market' ?

    Here are the ingredients:

    West Country Sauce (62%) Contains: Water, Lard, Wheat Flour, Modified Maize Starch, Tomato Puree, Salt, Colour (E150c), Yeast Extract, Sugar, Onion Flavour, Spice & Herb Extracts (Celery).
    Pork Faggots (38%) Contains: Water, Rusks, Rehydrated Pork Rind, Pork Liver (15%), Onion, Pork (4%), Pork Fat, Wheat Flour, Salt, Sage, Spice Extracts

    http://www.ocado.com/webshop/product/Mr-Brains-6-Frozen-Pork-Faggots-in-Sauce/45867011
    There's definitely no palm oil in that list. The rehydrated pork rind, pork and pork fat might be recovered so I'll reluctantly concede that point.

    As for your last point about exports to China I'd be very interested in seeing a link to verify that statistic.

    If you speak to Bryn Evans at the Merthyr depot he will confirm this,but it is not exactly sought out by Julian Assande or the CIA.I have eaten faggots and they are fatty-the figures on the side are a fiction by the way!:D

    I hope you are discussing pigs!

    Why don't you just make your own faggots, they would taste far better and they would also be far better for you.
