It might be the food to blame I remember I once had a full english breakfast (bacon, scrambled eggs, toasted bread, tomatoes) served on a hot plate and there was a round dark red cookie thing which looked very suspicious to me so I left it untouched. Later I found out it was made from pigs blood! What a gross I thought how can they eat that

Every animal in the buchery takes lots of stress before he dies and that stress concentrates in the blood of that animal. So I think it might pass to people who eat these cookies or half baked stakes (with blood) and it might be the cause of angryness ?

Absolutely, August. Some Brits will put just about anything in their mouths (this does, of course, convey important benefits in some ways).

Personally, I stopped eating red meat during the BSE crisis, and have never gone back - don't miss it, and better for my heart. Although I am not a member of the food police - people can eat whatever they like as far as I'm concerned - just don't make me eat the following -

Brains
Tongue
Heart
Tripe (just the thought of it makes me heave, and the taste confirms that thought)
Sweetbreads
Black pudding (the breakfast 'delicacy' mentioned already).

All pretty disgusting, in my opinion.

Nice story about the latter. One the UKs leading chefs, Nick Nairn, once did a TV series showing food around the country. The black pudding in the show was made by a woman in a Highland cottage. Nairn tells this story against himself. He and the camera crew had a good drinking session the night before, and poor Nick woke to this woman bringing in a bowl full of steaming fresh blood to start the pudding-making process. The camera crew were most amused by the reaction of Nick's already rather delicate stomach that morning...

The biscuits some of you are referring to is 'black pudding'. Usually sliced and fried along with fried bread, bacon, eggs mushrooms, tomatoes, beans sausages etc.

Have any of you had dripping? Before telling you what it is, I'll tell you how some of us eat it: spread on toast with a little salt. mmmmmm

Yea, I can wholly agree on that one. Although I didn't run into any pig's blood biscuits (?). The mad cow thing was all the rave back when I was there so I was kinda sceptical about most of the meat in the stores. This lead to me dropping a few pounds in weight, which was good from the jogging point of view.
