I've read about it before. Its something I probably should try although I'm sure I'll regret it. is it regional thing, I spent a fair bit of time in the alps and have never seen it.

Its a weird one, I'm allergic to it. Dont mind tofu (which is completely different), its been used as a meat substitute in the far east for centuries so not a new fad.

Tried a macaroni pie?

Yeah, it pretty regional to Brittany and Normandy although it does travel beyond those borders. If you're going to do it, try andouille first and work your way up to andouillette.
Then ask yourself why the good people of Vire invented Calvados and drink it by the pint.

andouillette Looks like a sausage until you cut into it then smell of **** hits you followed by the shock of intestines bursting out. Quite the most disgusting food on the planet. Luckily I just watched as someone else ate it.

Fortunately, chances of getting into france at the moment are slim.

You're one of the lucky ones, then. Over here, there's nothing else left. PM me your address and I'll send you a case of my Imperial Andouillette Shandy.

There's been cock ale, bacon beer, someone recently asking about chorizo beer, so why not give it a go??

Personally I quite like some of the vegetarian stuff out there. There’s some cracking burgers for a start. The
Beyond stuff is great. Oomph is another good one, works well in stir fry’s. Quorn is of course quite bland by itself, but it has its place in things like shepherds pie, tacos . Something with a fair amount of flavour so the Quorn is only used as a texture.
The Naked mince is quite nice as well, another good one for tacos. Can stick to your pan if you don’t use a good non stick and a nice whack of oil.
No, I’m not a vegetarian. I just avoid eating too much meat if I can, it doesn’t agree with me. My favourite meat thing is a roast, so I’ll get a big slab of something for that occasionally, do a roast, make some curry, then not have any meat for a week.
I bought my brother some Garlic Beer a while ago but I never tried it myself. Anyone tried that one? Any good?

Because meat is delicious. Just because you're ethically opposed to eating animals doesn't stop them tasting great.What i dont get is why they try to make veggie into meat its veggie and will never be meat, veggie burger a burger is made with meat same as a sausage, yeah and the earth is not flat well not till im ****** and i fall off in bed

I remember someone brought some dried durian back from their holiday and offered it our office for people to try. Most declined, given it's reputation but I tried it and for the first second, it was nice, then it sort of farts in your mouth, leaving a smell you can't escape from. Maybe I should have put that in my top 5, but andouilette must be a doddle compared to that.

I had never heard of durian, but now, after reading a Guardian article, I know it's best avoided, together with surströmming. The same article also warns against a French cheese, vieux Boulogne, which is considered to be the smelliest. I'll be on the lookout for that one as I love smelly cheeses since they smell of, well, cheese rather than carrion or pig slurry.
I reckon the country wine makers should be challenged to knock up a gallon of durian, though. What about it, Chippy!
