So tea tonight is: mash, Richmond sausages, brocolli, one small Yorkshire pudding and gravy.

Question: how many Richmond sausages?

None.

I would think twice about feeding Richmond sausages to my dog.

At my table, we eat sausages which are 90% meat, not 42%. 🤮

CarrieMoonbeams · 11/11/2021 18:01

Or even "in a" lake of gravy!

I cannot understand how they are so popular, they are utterly grim. Get some nice proper meaty sausage and you will only need a sensible portion then, rather than filling up on rusk and the other shite that’s in Richmond.

I have the vegetarian ones and I think they are really nice, - infinitely better than quorn/ Linda Macartney etc - I have two but usually in toad in the hole which makes it a bit more filling.

@JurgensCakeBaby

None they are vile
The whole thread answered in the first reply, I wholeheartedly agree

There's only one right answer. None.

TheWernethWife · 11/11/2021 18:06

No Richmond sausages for me, horrid. On the other hand, I know a bloke who has a 'sausage' dog called Richmond who is absolutely gorgeous, the dog not the bloke that is.

knittingaddict · 11/11/2021 18:06

But you knew that op, or why tell us the brand. A sausage is a sausage unless you're trying to trigger us.

@Knifeandfawkes

None, they are absolute dog meat Envy
This, with bells and whistles on. Utter shite, it's not difficult to find decent sausages for a reasonable price.
Suzi888 · 11/11/2021 18:08

I think they’re delicious and so does DH and he’s a meat eater. 3 each!

SexyNeckbeard · 11/11/2021 18:08

I bloody love Richmond sausages I'd have 3 and probably snaffle another one later to eat cold

cowburp · 11/11/2021 18:08

3 sausages for an adult

tillytoodles1 · 11/11/2021 18:09

They're my favourite sausages.

StillPerplexed · 11/11/2021 18:09

Only broccoli? Needs more veg.

Hodl · 11/11/2021 18:09

The Heck ones are quite nice. Love bangers and mash, with a load of fried red onion, and gravy. Mmmm!

Starcaller · 11/11/2021 18:09

The vegetarian ones are the most authentic veggie sausages I've had!

Hogwarts4Christmas · 11/11/2021 18:09

Recommended serving is 2 per person

JovialNickname · 11/11/2021 18:12

Richmond sausages are an entry level level sausage, but I would eat them and I'd want 3.

NeedsCharging · 11/11/2021 18:12

3 of the thick ones 4 of the thin ones.

For all those who instead of answering chose to just insult the OPS sausage choice have a bloody word with yourself!

I suppose your sausages cost £22 from Waitrose and are made from pigs hand reared on truffles Hmm

Slub · 11/11/2021 18:13

Nowt wrong with Richmond Sausages. I always have a bag in the freezer for ad hoc sausage sarnie/casserole/toad in hole.
The snobbery on here is ridiculous 🤷‍♂️

I'm isolating. I didn't have a lot of choice 😭

I imagine it's because they are cheap and lots of people are on very limited budgets and they can't afford meaty sausages.
Shade17 · 11/11/2021 18:15

I wouldn’t even feed them to my dog. Such low meat content they’re not even allowed to be called “pork” sausages IIRC.

PurpleDaisies · 11/11/2021 18:17

Three each of the veggie ones for dh and me. That leaves two for a sausage sandwich.
