Pork Sausage Sweeney Todd Style

Co-op they do food, they do electrical, they do funerals. They are pretty widespread.

So why is it that their sausages only contain 48% pork?

It is understandable that with a product such as a sausage you would need something to hold it together but surely thats not 52% of the sausage? So why not more pork? Is it because they own and operate the biggest funeral service in the uk? Perhaps they have other sources of meat that are cheaper and more accessible than pigs?

  1. So Co-op sausages are 48% pork, 52% dear departed Uncle Fred... explains why they were a bit chewy.

  2. interesting theory if under developed. what the pork meat consists of that makes up the 48% would make for an equally interesting exploration....
