I couldn't do that........I hate turkey with a passion, its a filthy meat.

why filthy?

It is notoriously hard to keep alive and is very prone to disease, so they are pumped full of drugs, not least antibiotics, for their entire lives.

The few organic ones that are out there are so expensive because the mortality rate is about 60%.


I have been told that salmonella wasn't present in UK poultry until turkeys were introduced commercially.

eeew, didn't know that

I wonder if spanish turkeys are the same?

Its something to do with the disease resistance in turkeys, they have been so inbred and intensely reared over the years that they have been weakened.

Last time I came back from Stansted with 5 kg of fresh rhubarb, and did not get stopped, mr.jdr really enjoyed it....ha ha

Only stuff I've brought back is Quality Street and starbucks coffee in my handluggage, went through fine

someone I know bought a tonne of sausages, bacon and frozen curries back got stopped at Alicante and had the lot taken away

whenever i am in uk i always bring back a joint of boiled bacon, some sausages and curry sauces, yep i know its mad but i like boiled bacon

well now it looks as though foot and mouth has reared its ugly head again the controls will be very tight about meat products going out of england!

so no more Bisto then

Lyn, you will have to get out there and STOCK UP!!

I don't do england...............I have to wait for visitors

If you get really desperate you can pay top price and buy little packets in Javea.

I'm never that desperate
