Popular Post webfact Posted March 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2022 Sausages are among the world’s favourite foods. They’re delicious and go well with drinks, with fried and grilled sausages a perfect match for beer. They can be part of a meal but are mostly enjoyed as a snack. Children in particular love to order them in fast-food and convenience stores. However, when this processed food product is not made to the highest of standards, it can be harmful to the health, causing food poisoning or building up in the body with often disastrous effects. In the wake of recent reports about sub-standard sausages, deputy secretary-general of the Thai Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Weerachai Nolwachai, recommends that consumers carefully check the packaging for an official FDA seal before purchasing. Weerachai explained that the seal comes with registration numbers, product name, producer information, manufacturing date, and expiry or best before date. It also has information on ingredients, preservatives, and net weight.

Popular Post Enzian Posted March 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2022 Otto von Bismarck famously said "Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made." In Thailand we can definitely reverse this and have it be equally relevant. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lacessit Posted March 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2022 I am beyond redemption, I love sausages. Cumberland, Bratwurst, chorizo, boerewors, sai ua - bring them on. I defy any bacteria to live in sai ua, it's like expecting an Eskimo to live on the equator.

Popular Post Bert got kinky Posted March 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2022 Why did they use the word 'sausages' in the headline when the story is about hot dogs. There is nothing in this story about real sausages. Also, as they are talking about local made hot dogs, they should define their understanding of the word 'delicious'. 3 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hot dog is a kind of sausage, while a sausage is a generic term that describes any combination of meat, seasonings, fat, preservatives, and fillers, injected into a cylindrical casing. Most of the time, hot dogs are eaten without the skin, whereas sausages can be eaten with or without the skin (depending on the brand). 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but I disagree with this, I will never refer to the Thai street hot dogs as sausages. If I ordered a full English breakfast and got hot dogs instead of sausages, I would send it back. To hell with the dictionary definition, calling the slop that comes out of Pizza Hut 'pizza' doesn't make it so...

"However, when this processed food product is not made to the highest of standards, it can be harmful to the health" In a long discussion with my respected doctor in Australia I asked him what I can do to limit my chances of heart attach and/or stroke. A quick summay of his response: - A big reducion in alcohol intake and stop altogether if you can. - Reduce coffee down to 1 cup/mug per day, in the morning. - Plenty of fresh water, e,g, 4 or 5 big glasses of water every day and after exercise/walk around the block etc. He agrees with the concept of waking up once or twice during the night to drink a glass of water. - Take a blood thinner every day (same time of day if you can, e.g. Cardiprin). - Reduce the oversall size of meals if you can. - Reduce red meat a lot. - Zero processed meats; sausages, cooked ham, etc., etc. - Ensure you have fruit and veg every day / several times every day, doctors' own diet (re fruit and veg etc.), one orange, one apple, one banana every day and any other fruit on hand and at least one carrot every day, potatoes and cooked onions etc., regularly but potatoes in small quantities. - Garlic every day, can be garlic tablets if you find eating garlic raw or cooked to be unpleasant. - Daily exercise, even just a walk around the block. That's all I can remember. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear mongering, can you expand on this for at least me....I mean it is known that most sausages/hot dogs etc...are known carcinogens and cancer causing. Not scaremongering but at least one knows what's possible. https://www.bannerhealth.com/healthcareblog/teach-me/who-hot-dogs-and-sausages-cause-cancer-now-what The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified processed meat as carcinogenic, or cancer-causing, to humans. It’s in the same category as cigarettes and alcohol. Think about that for a second. Cigarettes, alcohol, processed meat. All bad for you.

Popular Post realfunster Posted March 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 23, 2022 Good Lord ! It's groundhog day. At the risk of repeating myself (adopting the spirit used by ASEAN Now), do we have to have the exact same articles regurgitated several times over a couple of weeks period ? Is there no screening taking place to maximise fresh content, is there no 'new' news ??

It depends on who made them, where they were bought from. I used to make my own, and I knew what went into them. but the price of pork now is to high to do it. Last night my son and I had sausage and mash, onions, garlic and gravy which was tasty. They were Cumberland pork sausages from Makro but tasted nothing like the ones that I used to eat back in the UK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is nothing in this story about real sausages. Also, as they are talking about local made hot dogs, they should define their understanding of the word 'delicious'. Correct. Real sausages are made with fresh ground meat. The smoked hot dogs, save lots and weiners etc are not sausages, are not fresh and indeed are loaded with chemicals not found in real sausages. Its a misleading image, headline and article and a story two decades old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
