    Local butchers, most of them make their own and they have lots of interesting flavours.

    Obviously none of you shop at Aldi. I always buy their Pork Sausages 6 for £1.99 and 90% Pork, they are delicious too.

    more people diet who is high in red meat is lacking other foods to decrease your chances.

    Yes, reducing red meat and eating something else reduces your risk of bowel cancer.
    Generally a higher meat content will give you a more meaty sausage which is seen a nicer eat in most people view, or at least people who are prepared to pay more money.

    Psychologists have shown that it's price and not taste that motivates peoples choices. If you swap price tags so that the cheapest product has the highest price tag, people choose the one with the highest price. Martin Lewis blind tested budget foods on telly not long ago, people who preferred the budget food blind said that they wouldn't buy it once it was revealed to be a budget brand.
  • The more meat that is in a sausage the less room there is for "rubbish filler".

    So what's rubbish, all foodstuffs that aren't sausage meat?
    people who eat red meat got bowel cancer, but people who eat little, or no red meat also get bowel cancer.

    people who eat red meat get MORE bowel cancer, but people who eat little, or no red meat get LESS bowel cancer.

    But what are my chances of winning with one ticket, and what are they with two tickets?

    1:13983816 and 1:6991908, so what?

    Martin and programs of other ilk often have hidden agenda on these subjects.

    I can taste the difference between budget and more premium sausage whether I was blind tested or not. The texture between bowl chopped and non-chopped is quite different.
    Otherwise I would sell the sausages you get in baked bins for a premium price.
    Cheap sausage you can almost swallow with out chewing (if the skin is removed).

    Some products the difference between premium and value is greater than others.
    Massive difference between 80% meat content ham and with 100% meat.

    There are products were the difference is hard to spot. E.g. UHT skimmed milk.

    .

    There is still debate on this though?
    As they are saying some of the cancer risk comes from nitrites, high level of salt from more processed meat as opposed to eating lean pork tenderloin, in which pigs have a diet high in nuts etc and your eating high amounts of veg with this meal?

    e.g. a difference between
    meal A - lean tenderloin pork with a broccoli, tomatoes & peas etc
    Meal B - Sausage roll & chips.

    Admittedly that is not a easy thing to do a straight study on.
