Here for traffic

Just eaten a sausage sandwich two with square sausage by Heck in, realised over half way though the 2nd half of the 2nd that it's pink in the middle... will I be ok? I know it's not ideal but is eating pink pork a given for food poisoning? If relevant I'm not usually too bothered by use by dates and have never had any problems so potentially have an iron stomach...

I was dared to eat a raw sausage as a child. No ill effects whatsoever. I wouldn't recommend it. Never been keen on them since.

You will die, but not because of this, and hopefully not for many, many years. In the interim cook your food properly.

I used to eat raw sausages when I was little Grin

I'm glad you're alive. :)

My Great Aunt used to eat raw sausage all the time. Mind you, she also drank a lot of brandy so maybe that killed anything off...

I also saw on TV that you can eat pork pink these days as they have got rid of the bad bacteria through breeding. You're fine I reckon.

Don't worry OP, you'll probably just end up with a brain tapeworm...

Aren't Heck sausages chicken?

It's tapeworm and trychinosis you get from raw pork!

I used to eat raw sausages as a kid (in the 70s). Never had any problems.

Doughnuts they do some chicken ones but not all of their products are chicken based. It was these - www.heckfood.co.uk/product/fair-and-square-97-sausages
Would highly recommend. Fit perfectly between two small slices of bread
