...after we had sausage & mash for tea...

[Ponders]

...to keep sneaking downstairs & scraping up sausage fat with a forkful of leftover mash?

urgh yes YABU.

they were v classy sausages though

Eeeurgh.

It's reasonable if you enjoyed it I suppose, but I don't think I could eat sausage fat without the sausages.

Which is weird really, because I quite like pork scratchings, and they're considerably more disgusting when you think about it.

But I am a lady! So it must be all right!

I do that with Bacon fat and bread when i cook it on the grill so YANBU!!!!

MIL does this sort of thing. yuk.

Oh thank goodness, thank you, LadyE

Ponders YVW...I also do it with sausage fat lol

yuk,however left over chicken.i am gnawing the bones.

LOL @ bones

Ming ming ming.

Fat? YUK! I am also assuming the fat was (retch) congealed since you had to scrape it up? (double retch)

Oh dear

Actually it wasn't congealed when I first tried it...it is v tasty though, congealed or otherwise (& the sausages concerned are 95% meat so not a huge amount of left-over fat).

I obv have a big dietary problem though

serously gross

fat

eugh

mash

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

with butter ( fat i know) mmmmmmmmmmm

well exactly, custy!

differentiate between buttery fatty mash (yum) & sausagey fat (also - er - yum!)

eek. I do grab handfuls of Jordans raspberry crunch cereal when I go downstairs however.

sausagey fat - isn't yum its rank

i love cold leftover mashed potato!!

congealed sausage fat? bleargh!

on the other hand, I do have a weakness for sneaking cake, biccies yumyum

Because the butter in the mash is all mixed in and lovely and creamy, but the sausage fat is all cold and hard and white like lard.

I know what you're saying, it's all still fat but one seems so much more appetising than the other.

I don't think you have a dietary problem though. If you start rooting through the kitchen bin for bits of leftover sausage fat, that's a problem

And despite my saying YUK to sausage fat, I will own up to making up cake mixture, as in: RAW eggs, sugar, butter (fat) and flour and then eating it. Not even making it into a cake, just eating the mixture. It's yummy

my dad loves toast & dripping, so whilst it doesn't appeal to me, i can understand it, sort of.

Shouldnt of read this thread first thing in the morning! Congealed sausage fat is yuck!

waitingforfanjo I made some cakes the other day and as with tradition left a small amount in bowl for me to eat. Completely forgeting that im 6 months pregnant and really shouldnt be doing things like that... WHOOPS! (did taste good though)

Well that´s my breakfast struggling to stay down now!
