FabSwingers.com forum: Why can't i get a Savaloy.

London

This has been bugging me for years.

Why is it when I cross over the border, which is the M25 (the Adrian's wall of the south) that I cant get a savaloy for love nor money.

In my local chippy I can get mushy peas, gravy and now there even selling bits (great food from the north)

So my question is, why hasn't the rest of Britain embarrassed our great South East Savaloy

You can't get one because you're going to the wrong shop it's a pork shop you need not a chippy.

Northerners don't like saveloys because they don't absorb gravy.

I don't want to start a fist fight over a savaloy, but I want it cooked hot with my chips

Never been in a northern chippy that didn't have them. We just don't give them a name above their station. They are jumbo sausages. And taste fucking terrible, unless covered in proper British curry!

A jumbo sausage and a saveloy are not the same thing!

you could go to Scotland and try a red pudding - don't ask for a red pudding and chips though; it's "red pudding supper", even if you're buying it at lunchtime

That's the one, red skin. When I'm in Yorkshire I get a blank look when asking for a saveloy.

Most have never heard of a saveloy. And the only way to eat a saveloy is with chips without mushy pees and gravy

Whining! I think not. As you can see this single man gets his meat, both ways. That's why one can converse about the subject in question.

Tongue is lovely. So is heart , liver & kidney. I don't understand why people only eat the flesh when the innards are a lot more tasty.

Tongue is just muscle. Tastes great and is fairly lean. Do people think its got taste buds on it?
