When I was younger, eating sausages was a regular thing. Sausages were sausages. Back then i liked their taste.

Fast forward to around 2014 i first started to pick up on a distasteful experience eating sausages. It made me go "ew, yuck, that's not sausage. In fact it's not even food. That's garbage". Did I make an unfortunate pick picking sausages?

No, it happened elsewhere. I cycled through a few sausages and they all made me go ew, yuck, i wasted my money, got a horrible taste in my mouth and i wrap my day up in some hunger.

Sometime later I stopped putting any sausages in my shopping card and opted for meat products, that actually look like meat: Chicken, filets & meat cuts.

Sometime later I discovered a humble sausage butcher chain, that claims "we don't play by the rules of others, we produce our own line of sausages". And truly, the sausages they sold are unlike what the grocery stores were selling. I gave it a try and truly, after what I've tasted from them opened my body up to a new perception. These were authentic or artisan-like sausages. From time to time i bought from them.

Then in the year 2022 I have escaped from that region. I tried multiple times the sausages local to me and they too made me go "ew, yuck, that's garbage i'll never buy again!". Have the sausage producers changed their sausage formula globally to edible garbage or what? I can taste the chemicals and the garbage i can't name and my body responding with "spit that shit out, now!". Only sujuk was good but sujuk is too salty for me.

Today in the first time of my life (29 years old) i cooked Steak. It was yummy and tasted just like real and roasted meat. I made up my mind from now on: Sausages won't enter my shopping card. Meat cuts, filets and Steak will. For breakfast or meals i'll have not any f-cking sausages but a big good steak. Surprisingly steak isn't much more expensive than sausages where I am!
