While on a weekend break in Berlin, The Couch’s?! gourmet expeditionary force threw itself with abandon into beer and bratwursts. The result was an outbreak of off-colour humour and all the wurst jokes we’ve ever known.
From the deadly Ecky Thump black pudding (from which a man died laughing during an episode of ‘The Goodies’) to the ‘That’s Life’ talking dog, sausages have long been associated with comedy.
In spite – or because of these humourous links, sausages are loved around the world. Now it’s your turn to explore this warm culinary mongrel.
According to sausagefans.com, a website specifically dedicated to sausages, over 90% of the UK population regularly tucks into a banger or two. We love our sausages so much that we spend arround £500m a year on them.
So, cut the baloney and give us your low-down on the subject. See if you agree with The Couch’s?! Top 10 Sausage Selection, or perhaps you know a few (decent please) sausage jokes. Honour the sausage by posting a comment below.
