The wurst new flavors…

Hoping to spice up their summer business, German butchers have introduced a new line of exotic-tasting sausages with flavors ranging from kiwi, maraschino cherry, lemon and even aloe vera.

The wide variety of new ingredients may seem like heresy to what is for many ordinary Germans the national dish. But for others the new flavors may help negate stagnant demand for the greasy Bratwurst you can find on almost any street corner.

Berlin butcher Uwe Buenger has developed a “chili-honey” Bratwurst while rival Dankert has come up with a “kiwi wurst” that also includes pineapples and maraschino cherries, Bild newspaper reported Tuesday.

Most of the designer flavors of sausage in the marketplace - suck!

Even worse, is the PC fanaticism for reducing fat content. Fat mostly renders out during proper cooking and provides flavor. The teenie weenie anti-fat crowd is probably responsible for breeding pigs themselves down to walking cardboard animal imitations.
