Moaning about the lack of British Food when abroad

Rick Stein on a cullinery travelogue through France a while ago, went to the town it emanates from he did say "it's an acquired taste" Good grief you're not kidding Rick

I remember some years ago watching a cookery programme in which chef Nick Nairn was being shown how to make black pudding on Stornoway - poor soul had to go outside to be sick!

Then made it on Saturday Kitchen, apparently!

I remember that. I think it was in Troyes, and he said it wasn't everyone's cup of tea!! ☕️ 🫖

Seriously, who would eat that?

Indeed it isn't escaped, quite horrifying finding that on a plate

I just looked that sausage up. Ych y fi !

I remember a story on a French forum of someone who had been given blood sausage for lunch, vomited and the nurses thoght he had hemorrhaged. 🤮
I hate andouillette almost as much as tripes de Caen.

Yes, these are good reasons to be a vegetarian...

We call Andouillette ‘gristle sausage’ but black pudding is fine. Talking about seeing it produced being off putting, reminds me of a visit to a local shop where they made meat and potato pies. To be fair, I didn’t like them before I saw how they were made, but afterwards, no chance.
