Britain's Really Disgusting Foods
On BBC1 now until 11.35pm, it's a new series not a one-off.
I've been too busy watching it to post but seriously, get onto BBC iPlayer this week and watch it. Not only informative but fucking hilarious.
The oddball that presents it has just been making 5% meat sausages, using all the rank guts, skin, gristle and carcass steamings that the supermarkets stick in their economy stuff and then got some dolly bird to hand them around to punters that hadn't seen them being made. This is all at the Good Food Show by the way. Also hassling Gordon Ramsay for tips on grinding up that connective tissue and getting Ramsay to sign a copy of his advertising fluff piece in the Booker Cash and Carry catalogue (more of that below).
Prior to this, he rang a cheapo sausage company (sorry "banger" company, they aren't allowed to call them sausages) and asked what went into them.
"Nips? Ballbag?"
Funnier than I'm making it sound, trust me, as was his mate's call to US Customs to check if his UK Super Sour Skittles would be impounded on arrival because they contain E124, which is banned in the US.
He also had a confrontation with a Booker cash and carry manager whilst he was being filmed in their car park wearing fisherman's waders which were being filled to breaking point with gallons of water, in a failed attempt to enter the store and suggest a marketing campaing for their 40% added water chicken breasts.
"Do you have permission to do that"
"what, wear the suit? Yeah, I've got permission."
"No, to film."
"I dunno." (to cameraman) "Do we have permission to film?"
"No"
"Err... no. Not to film. No we don't"
As the manager walks off, filming continues as our man rolls around on the floor of a Booker's car park with water pouring from a bust pair of waders, moaning that he's having a baby.
TV gold this, great programme. Like a more whymsical Mark Thomas.

I watched the same programme at 1.30 am on Sunday morning on BBC three. Some of the shit going into them sausages was horendous.
The worst part for me however was them naming Asda's smart prices apple pies containing hydro animal fats & knowing i've eaten them on a number of occasions. Never again!
Pork shins, connective tissue & hydro animal fats for fucks sake!

Re: Britain's Really Disgusting Foods
Fucking hell, I know theirs a big thing on recycling but that programme has been on BBC3 more than Eastenders.
Saw it a month or so back, best bit was the huge block of cheese filler. No taste, no nutritional value, customer services for the company that makes it basically telling him he'd be better off eating a tyre.
