Got these in ASDA today and they are a lot better than I was expecting them to be. Usually only decent ones are available in pubs:) (avoid KP;))

cheers, Tim

My father used to buy them at the market - I believe they're very low in fat, like celery and pork pies... :D

The salt content helps with blood pressure too. It's a wonderful healthfood

Is it me or does every packet contain at least one dodgy mutant piece that is a tad too much a shade of grey/black to eat.

Yes Stephen, that's how i got to know them, when a few years a go i tried the low carb thing. problem was that i ate way to many packets which did not help the weight at all..:eek:

I adore them......used to be able to get huge bags of em from the butchers for next to nothing.....but proper scratchings as 'med' in the Black Country are unbeatable.....Bostin.......

Love 'em, but I've got a real sensitive stomach, or something, and they don't agree with me :(. Mind you, I've only tried packaged one's from the garage so it's probably some sort of horrible additive that tries to eat me from the inside!

Loved them, till i broke a tooth on them, made me a bit wary. I stick to warm pork pies, brown sauce and mushy peas.;)
