Richmond sausages

[Landof]

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

Question: how many Richmond sausages?

I imagine it's because they are cheap and lots of people are on very limited budgets and they can't afford meaty sausages

I'd say most basic supermarket sausages are cheaper but contain almost twice as much meat .

I often buy expensive sausages from the butchers but I'd still scarf down Richmond and mash I'm a woman of many and varied tastes and standards. Enjoy your dinner!

Oh I bloody love the veggie Richmond sausages.

I would have 2 or 3 depending on how much of everything else I had on my plate. I would definitely have more yorkshires though, 1 is never enough

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 🤷‍♂️

It's not snobbery if something is disgusting. Which Richmond Sausages are. Even my husband agrees and he eat those vile hot dogs in a jar. (not envy)

I like them because they're smooth and hate bitty sausages, I'd have 2

The vegan ones are tasty. I’d have 2 or 3.

We like Richmond sausages, but usually if we have them for breakfast as they are quick to cook.

None because they’re horrible but I understand that needs must. YABU to only have one Yorkshire pudding though, the ratio of sausages to Yorkshire puddings should be 1:1.

The sausages we buy are 97% meat.
If you're going to kill animals, go big!

Totally agree. Asda extra special ones are much nicer and the same price as a pack of Richmond in our Asda.

I'd say most basic supermarket sausages are cheaper but contain almost twice as much meat

Asda own frozen sausages contain 32% pork
Richmond frozen sausages contain 42% pork.

Really you are just being a snob.

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

I don't think that's true...they are low meat but they say pork. I know because I avoid the real ones! If that were true surely you wouldn't be able to have chicken on 'chicken soup', etc?

I've never tried the real ones but the veggie ones are lush and I always have 2-3.

Richmond veggie sausages are the absolute tits, incidentally. Can't speak for the meat ones.

I would have three.

Only one small yorkshire??????

I absolutely hate them but I reckon a serving of sausages is 3 per adult.

I can eat three no probs so a bloke would need at least four. I've seen my partner eat 6-8 at a bbq.

Why are they advertised as the best sausages in England, when they taste and look horrible.

3 for me, 2 for my 11 year old, 6 year old has a big appetite so takes 3. Dh would take 4. I feel 3 isn't enough but 4 too many.

Love them. Always thought they would be horrible but tried them elsewhere and pleasantly surprised so would buy them now.

None.

They do nothing to break the stereotype that sausages are mostly made up of pigs eyelids and arseholes, because they tastes exactly as if those are the major components of a Richmond "sausage".

They're horrible, nations favourite, my arse.

Is this Richmond going a survey?

@JurgensCakeBaby

None they are vile

100%

Why? Just why?

Have you had covid and lost all taste?

I am really relieved to find so many people saying Richmond sausages are vile! They really are!!!

DH bought some once. I cooked & gave him the whole pack, & I had a piece of real meat instead.

I bought DP a bbq smoker thingy last Christmas. My DSS only eat Richmonds so we smoked some for horrific blended family bbq day! They were awesome, seriously delicious! The kids asked us why we never cook normal food. Don't know what they mean?!

The fact that they are made out of lips, ears and arseholes would be enough for me not to eat them, add the fact that they have the texture of playdoh and the anaemic colour of a two day old cadaver just makes them completely off the menu.
