Given Barnsley are the first up, I had a quick scoot over to their forum to see what the reaction is (fairly confident they can get one over us, a good time to play us as we will still be in transition).
Whilst there, I stumbled across a thread that could well have graced FOF a few years ago, courtesy of Fat Fred.

Quite amusing, although I disagree on the Richmond sausages as I'm very fond of them.
I'm a Tesco Finest man myself, particularly partial to their Pork & Onion, and Pork & Apple...
I daresay the meat content is minimal, but nothing what a heap of brown sauce can cope with :)
The sausages in the Nurnburger Bratwurst Glockl near Munich Cathedral are wonderful. Washed down with Augustiner helles served on gravity direct from the barrel 😋
I'm vegan, so it's immaterial
You're just a bunch of sausage eating elitists who don't understand that some people demand to be able to choose their own way of living and eating without the need for the perpetual meat eaters to keep on about it, meat this, meat that. I mean it's not like you ever hear of a vegan going all preachy about the evils of meat eating, us quiet shy introverted non meat eaters should be allowed to live our lives in peace without having to avoid a football forum, yes football to have us distracted by talk of sausages and being made out of pork. Oh and for those talking about pork and apple you keep your meat stained fingers off our apples, they should not be combined ever, it's just wrong, wrong I tell you. Oh and don't get me started on your leather shoes you bunch of w...........
(I would point out the rant is ironic, I don't really care)

Well I am a Vegi, my wife wouldn't feed me if I wasn't, and there are some quite good vegi sausages about so we don't have to envy the meat eaters and their bangers.
By the way they say the cure for vegitarians and vegans is the smell of a toasted bacon sandwich, so irresistibly tempting.

I loathe the smell of a toasted bacon sandwich, I think that is the absolute case for becoming a vegitarian.
Can you advise a good vegi/vegan sausage? I know Quarn sausage rolls are absolutely delicious, better than most meat ones but actual sausages can be very hot and miss.

Sainsbury Scrumdogs veggie sausages. Top bangers.
I'm partial to a cauldron vegan Cumberland sausage, they are good, on the hotdog style though it has to be Fry's smoked style not found anything else that comes close.
Quorn bratwurst are superb
There used to be a mobile burger van on the A2 just past the Dover Patrol (heading east bound) in the 80`s I think it was called Bob and Mary`s, don`t know where they got their bangers from but I`ve never tasted anything better since.

I and 1in 10 people have a Quorn allergy which results in a rise in body temperature within a couple of hours of eating followed by overnight sickness and diarrhoea, so be warned and be careful.
How one can loathe the smell of bacon is beyond me.
I got my vegi friend the Heck beetroot sausages and the Heck indian sausages and he really liked them.
As for me, I really like the Asda Finest leek and pepper sausages.

My meat eating friends also like them.
Impossible to cook vegi sausages on a BBQ. 3 hours & they still don´t turn brown on the outside.

I've been mostly meat-free for 20 years and the smell, or taste of bacon is probably the last thing that would tempt me.

I don't think i'll ever understand that. Taste aspect, yeh, smell, never.
I am possibly as far from being a veggie as it is possible to be and still live, absolutely adore a sausage or 2 but I recently was given a Gregg's veg sausage roll by my Vegan chum as a challenge and TBH it was not bad at all it was hard to tell what it was just like the proper sausage rolls.

Has this debate recently. If they made it a vegi rather than vegan with sue of eggs for pastry, I'd eat them over the meat ones. I feel like the filling is better than meat but the pastry was like cardboard, super dry.
You can't beat a cevapi sausage imo.

Thank Allah Fat Fred got the boot, he was a complete moron.
I used to love the tesco sausages but unfortunately I can't eat them anymore because I think I'm allergice to one of the conservation products they put on them.
My throat closes and I struggle to breath/talk for a good while. Not to mention it's scary af :016:

I hope I am not speaking out of turn but if you got that extreme reaction you really ought to see your doctor and arrange some tests. If there is something in the sausages then it is probably used elsewhere and better to be certain what caused the issue.

Good, [leasd to hear it. I have had a series of intolerances for years and years that make me cautious but if they flare up unexpecdely they can be very nasty indeed. Good luck...
Speaking on behalf of ex-pats, finding a suitable sausage in the US, that is comparable to a British banger, takes a lot more effort than can usually be expected and some places nigh on mission impossible.
The one thing we head for when we get back home is real bangers and mash, a delicacy most understated in the homeland (for those of the meat-eating clan).
Talking of the smell of bacon (delish) over here they have turkey bacon, go figure. :022:
Sausages and all our meat has to be from M&S. Not much more for much better quality.

With Regards to Bacon,I went red meat free for about 3 years and the only thing I craved was Bacon Rashers and Bolognese Sauce.What I do find a little odd is Vegetarians making something into a sausage or a Burger.
Thuringian Rostbratwurst, recipe dates back to 17th century, protected by law and custom.

Nothing odd about it. Sausages and burgers taste great. However, if you don't want to eat meat (for whatever reason) but still fancy a banger or a burger, really good non meat alternatives are available for you to enjoy.

They make burger buns and hot dog rolls, most bread is vegan so it is logical to put it into the same shape as the meat alternatives, which, let's face it, are not natural cut of meat shapes in any event.

makes it easier for me to prepare both vegi and meat options with burgers. I get a bit weird about like, making a full Tofu turkey, just feels liek it defeats the point for me, but thats just me. Each to their own.

I would think any health benefits they get from being meat free would be off set by eating that bread lol
