I've bought the William Rose chorizo sausages last year and they were sold as uncooked. It would certainly be poor hygiene, through cross contamination, if cooked sausages were displayed next to raw sausages.


I believe Marmora Man is referring to cured chorizo where you can either eat it from cold or cooked. The William Rose's chorizo sausages are not the same as cured chorizos.

Thanks for that .

Bit silly of me as it's obvious really if it's sold next to uncooked meat .


In the past I've chopped it up and added to lentil soup with no prior cooking ,but I was wondering .


We've suffered no ill effects .... the sausage contents do look pretty cured ,but I'll pre cook it from now on !

"There are two types of chorizo. Fresh and raw"


Not in Spain there isn't.

There it specifically means smoke cured sausage (or a silly billy). Paprika is optional as you can get chorizo blanco without it.

There's probably a governing body which decides what the difference is between salchich?n, fuet, lomo (which presumably is made only from the back of a pig), chorizo etc.


I think the meaning has been extrapolated internationally to mean any sausagey pork product with paprika though.

In fact I once had 'chorizo' in the dearly departed Black Cherry which was actually a spicy frankfurter. Eek! I made my feelings clear about this.


But enough with the pedantry, the type you refer to does need cooking (but chorizo it ain't!!).

In her head maybe.

Don't get me wrong, I was perfectly polite, but they refused to accept that charging 12 quid for a boil in the bag frankfurter form sainsburys and selling it as something it wasn't was wrong and offered no alternative nor money back.

It was the last time any of us ate there to be fair so something less pithy (be it unspoken or not) might have been wiser.


I'll miss the Buena Vistas though!!

If she is Irish she would have said "WhiskEy"

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
