1500 calories of meat product

A while back, I mentioned a bet that I had won against Sean regarding the age of his father-in-law’s tractor. Well, Sean has finally fulfilled his wager and eaten a pound of canned Vienna sausages (including the broth that they are packed in). It was an inhuman scene, but Sean was brave and finished it all (well, I did have one sausage, and his daughter had a few bites, but Sean was by himself on the broth, which he had to slurp from a plate since all his bowls had been packed away for his move back east). Sean tried adding barbeque sauce to improve the flavor, but I’m not sure that helped. Ironically, today at Love’s, I noticed that you can buy Vienna sausages in different sauces and flavors, including barbeque (truckers must be quite the connoisseurs of canned meats to demand such a variety of flavors).

I forgot my camera, so there are no pictures, but video was taken so there is a permanent record of the event.

As an aside, when buying the sausages, I looked at the ingredient label for “Potted Meat”; I really am curious as to what “partially defatted cooked pork fatty tissue” and “partially defatted cooked beef fatty tissue” is. Maybe that’s the stuff left over when fat scraps are sent to the rendering plant to be made into soap?

A temporary lapse....

I've been bad about updating here, but I promise more will be forthcoming soon....
