Sausages!!!!
 
Just found some British bangers in Giant Eagle!!! OMG so exciting, how sad is that?

Frozen, $6.99 for 6 which is expensive. I bought some, I'll let you know what they taste like. But we may keep them frozen for a while and just look at them occasionally.
They also had Auntie Bessies Yorkshire puds and bubble and squeak, Youngs Chip Shop fish fingers and some frozen Indian food. All at huge cost, of course.

I'll have to go and lie in a darkened room for a while

Anyone in Texas needs to check out Randalls...they have a UK section now. Everything from teabags (Tetley and PG Tips) to pickled onions, salad cream, Daddy's sauce and for some inexplicable reason, Boots brand condoms.

I guess everyone likes their own...

The Giant Eagle I used was a big Market District one but they weren't in the posh deli bit,they were just in the freezer section.
I did buy some from Whole Foods, again at huge cost and they were nice but very meaty and my family like the Walls type fatty banger.

I hope they are nice. We have tried so many sausages here and none have been right.
We used to have bangers, mash, yorkshire puddings and onion gravy every week back home. Drool.

got a stop and shop? They sell some that aren't to bad...though I prefer the wholefoods, the breakfast sausages weren't to bad, the irish bangers were okay, but not worth the money....though the spicey mango sausages were pretty good :D

You guys need to try some of the special ones from HEB. They have really great flavors like chicken, cheese & jalapeno and they are to DIE for.
