Notorious enough for our horrible cooking, aren't we? This is a good resource, though, and one I've used many a time to befoul the atmosphere of my kitchen with thick, black smoke.

Looks interesting.
I have a British cookbook--Great British Cooking: A Well-Kept Secret, by Jane Garmey. I am irked that it does not seem to include Bangers & Mash, though it does have Bubble & Squeak.

Ah, bubble and squeak! Commonly assumed to be named for the noises it makes while frying vigourously, but I assure you that the truth of the matter is that the name is derived from the hideous gastrointestinal noises made after consumption. It's painful.

Bangers and Mash is kinda self explanatory...

Edit: I fixed it!

I hate it when I know how to spell something, and then someone asks me how it's spelt, and I can't remember... I think it's 'explanatory'. *Googles* Yep.

And I will agree that bangers and mash should be self explanatory, since there's nothing more complicated involved than boiling water.

Do you what's weird? You can get most of the supplies for black pudding (except for blood and something else I can't remember) at Wal-mart? Because of the large Hispanic population in my area the store stocks the 'nasty bits' as my chef friend call them.

Never, ever read the ingredients on a package of chorizo. I seem to recall 'pork salivary glands'...

We bought a kangaroo roast and kangaroo sausages from the supermarket. Not bad, but the snags were a bit dry, and it all had way too much seasoning.
