I had an uncle who was a farmer a long time ago when I was a kid. If you add wheat or oats or some non- meat filler to sausage, it's considered cheap and not of a good quality.

They need all that wheat to sop up all the fat :o I bought some from an independent butcher who uses rice flour, but he still put all the fat in so they had a LOT of rice flour!! :unsure: Very hard to get a decent chicken sausage here. I tried making my own turkey sausage patties but they had made a mess mousse out of the turkey :rolleyes:

My grandma used to teach in a 1 room school in Iowa. She would stay with different families for a month at a time. She loved to go to one house that made the best sausage. Instead of just putting the junk bits of the pig in like most people, they put the whole pig into the grinder ( not bones). Very high quality and delicious. She lived to 100 eating like that!

I only had two tiny glasses of wine then switched to water. Whatever allergens I was consuming made it difficult to breath and I didn't want to make that worse with alcohol. Not sure what else was in the sausages. Peach maybe (allergic to peaches).

Just bought gluten-free sausages for when my son comes home. Now I don't think I'll chance them. I'm so sensitive to everything. Any of you ever get depressed when glutened? I've been feeling depressed lately and I hate it! I'm a pretty upbeat person but have been waking up depressed almost daily.

We have a company here that makes lovely chicken and apple sausages. Apparently, Americans like different flavors in their sausages. Peaches get used a lot in sauces and salsa, too. I did not know a peach and a peanut were cousins.

Just used some of my overcooked potatoes from the other night to make potato pancakes or " Irish Latkes". Yummmmm! Have been wondering if you could do that with overcooked, mushy rice?

I make a rice omelette for breakfast frequently and it's delicious.

They served these last night, on the end of a stick so people ate them like lollipops.

Now that sound phallic (tee-hee) time to get my mind out of the gutter. This thread is certainly good for what ails you! Thanks to you all (and mostly Kareng for bringing me here and walking and pfeeding me).

..looked 'em up! They look good!! (but evil ph34r.gif)

Kinda reminds me of 'bubble & squeak'.

laugh.gif Bangers are just sausages - we don't really have 'breakfast' sausages, they're all the same (except chipolatas blink.gif ... which are more like 'cocktail' sausages)

Anyhoo, yer choice of any banger in the UK that is gluten-free is limited dry.gif

6.22pm & I have my pj's on ph34r.gif

Nikki,

Where do you live? When we were first coming up to our new house we frequented an Irish Diner and I LOVED the bangers. I never connected them to the fact that I suffered the big D within a half hour. Now my husband and son go there without me as everything is cooked on the same grill and there's no way for me not to be glutened. Boy do I ever miss them!

Hmm. . . ...was gonna rent AND watch this movie next Friday with Jack when he is home for a PD day. . . . . .. . ...perhaps not? :unsure:

Best not methinks!!

Another example of fine, creative British phrasing. .. . . we come up with no such great names o'er here. .. . .. .BUT - - why is this dish called bubble and squeak? Does it actually bubble, and perhaps squeak against yer teeth when you chew it? :huh:

Matters not, as it is a terrific name... . B)

It doth bubble and squeak as it cooks biggrin.gif

Hi, Jyaghnutt! :) Are you a Russell Brandian?

First time I ever saw him was in a movie . . . don't recall which one . . . and I thought . . . :huh: . . . WIH was THAT?? I thought it was a normal actor playing an odd character. Now I know it was an odd actor playing a normal character. Now that I've seen additional movies and interviews and such, I still think he's odd . . . but he-larry-us.

Youse guys need to come to my house for a weenie roast and smore-a-thon . . . the patio and fire pit were officially opened for business last night.

We watch it and can't imagine who's going to replace him. Have you seen the British version? Ricky Gervais is another favorite of mine. He's making a fortune on the residuals of both versions of the office.

Back to Russell brand. I do find him hot but have to admit to a very long lived crush on Robert Downey Jr. My son finds it gross.

True dat--it's sort of a tradition here :P

Got home a little while ago from South Jersey--that 2 hour drive seems to go faster each time :D Just put a pizza in the oven--Peter, I used GFP French Bread mix for the first time as a pizza crust. 2 questions--do youse freeze the crusts shaped? and how thick do you spread the batter in the pizza pan? I used a spatula and just winged it but it's taking longer than the 15 minutes the instructions said to bake it. I might have used too much :unsure: oh--3 questions--how many crusts do you get per box?

I'm hoping to eat it in a few minutes whilst watching Russell on LKL. :DB)

:( CNN is carrying "CNN Presents" right now in Larry's regular time slot.

Had me pizza all set and everything :angry:

But OMGawd....this was THE best pizza I've had gluten-free. The phunny thing is that I've been making the GFP bread regularly all this time and never used it fer pizza. I've been shulmping all the ingredients out and making a so-so crust from scratch--and all this time the perfect one has been hiding in my cupboard! :o:lol:

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.

      This happened to me as well. What’s weirder is that within a couple hours of taking paxlovid it subsided. I thought maybe I got glutened but after reading your post not so sure.

      Hi Tiffany. Thank you for writing your dituation and  circumstancesin such detail and so well writte, too. I particularly noticed what you wrote about brain for and feeling like your brain is swelling and I know from my own experiences that's how it feel and your brain really does swell and you get migraines.    Way back when I was in my 20s I read a book by 2 MD allergist and they described their patient who came in complaining that her brain, inside her cranium, was swelling  and it happened when she smelled a certain chemical she used in her home. She kept coming back and insisting her brain actually swelled in her head. The Drs couldn't explain this problem so they, with her permission, performed an operation where they made a small opening through her cranium, exposed her to the chemical then watched as she brain did swell into the opening. The DRs were amazed but then were able to advise her to avoid chemicals that made her brain swell. I remember that because I occasionally had brain fog then but it was not a serious problem. I also realized that I was becoming more sensitive to chemicals I used in my work in medical laboratories. By my mid forties the brain fog and chemicals forced me to leave my  profession and move to a rural area with little pollution. I did not have migraines. I was told a little later that I had a more porous blood brain barrier than other people. Chemicals in the air would go up into my sinused and leak through the blood brain barrier into my brain. We have 2 arteries  in our neck that carry blood with the nutrients and oxygen into the brain. To remove the fluids and used blood from the brain there are only capillaries and no large veins to carry it away so all those fluids ooze out much more slowly than they came in and since the small capillaries can't take care of extra fluid it results in swelling in the face, especially around the eyes. My blood flow into my brain is different from most other people as I have an arterial ischema, adefectiveartery on one side.   I have to go forward about 20 or more years when I learned that I had glaucoma, an eye problem that causes blindness and more years until I learned I had celiac disease.  The eye Dr described my glaucoma as a very slow loss of vision that I wouldn't  notice until had noticeable loss of sight.  I could have my eye pressure checked regularly or it would be best to have the cataracts removed from both eyes. I kept putting off the surgery then just overnight lost most of the vision in my left eye. I thought at the I had been exposed to some chemical and found out a little later the person who livedbehind me was using some chemicals to build kayaks in a shed behind my house. I did not realize the signifance  of this until I started having appointments with a Dr. in a new building. New buildings give me brain fog, loss of balance and other problems I know about this time I experienced visual disturbances very similar to those experienced by people with migraines. I looked further online and read that people with glaucoma can suffer rapid loss of sight if they have silent migraines (no headache). The remedy for migraines is to identify and avoid the triggers. I already know most of my triggers - aromatic chemicals, some cleaning materials, gasoline and exhaust and mold toxins. I am very careful about using cleaning agents using mostly borax and baking powder. Anything that has any fragrance or smell I avoid. There is one brand of dishwashing detergent that I can use and several brands of  scouring powder. I hope you find some of this helpful and useful. I have not seen any evidence that Celiac Disease is involved with migraines or glaucoma. Please come back if you have questions or if what I wrote doesn't make senseto you. We sometimes haveto learn by experience and finding out why we have some problems. Take care.       The report did not mention migraines.

      Hi Jmartes71 That is so much like my story! You probably know where Laytonville is and that's where I was living just before my 60th birthday when the new Dr. suggested I could have Celiacs. I didn't go on a gluten challange diet before having the Celiac panel blood test drawn. The results came back as equivical as one antibody level was very high but another, tissue transaminasewas normal. Itdid show I was  allergic to cows milk and I think hot peppers. I immediately went gluten free but did not go in for an endoscopy. I found an online lab online that would do the test to show if I had a main celiac gene (enterolab.com). The report came back that I had inherited a main celiac gene, DQ8, from one parent and a D!6 from the other parent. That combination is knows to sym[tons of celiac worse than just inheriting one main celiac gene. With my version of celiac disease I was mostly constipated but after going gluten-free I would have diarrhea the few times I was glutened either by cross contamination or eating some food containing gluten. I have stayed gluten-free for almost 20 years now and knew within a few days that it was right for me although my recovery has been slow.   When I go to see a  medical provide and tell them I have celiacs they don't believe me. The same when I tell them that I carry a main celiac gene, the DQ8. It is only when I tell them that I get diarrhea after eating gluten that they realize that I might have celiac disease. Then they will order th Vitamin B12 and D3 that I need to monitor as my B12 levels can go down very fast if I'm not taking enough of it. Medical providers haven't been much help in my recovery. They are not well trained in this problem. I really hope this helps ypu. Take care.
