Guilt free sausages – living better & healthier

Is there such a thing as guilt free sausages?

Yes I guess there is, if you are perhaps a beefcake type person with lots of muscles, high energy needs and no concerns about putting on weight.

I’m no beefcake and am actually actively losing weight at the moment.

In spite of this, I have found a way of eating guilt free sausages!

Lucky, sneaky, wicked me!

So what’s my secret?

Well, unlike the majority of people, I eat the right type of sausages.

Let me tell you more about them…

My wife and I have a friend who is a Chef. On one occasion, when he was with us for an evening meal, we dined on sausages (yes, dined; the quality is that good). Our friend cooked for us. He commented that he had not seen such sausages before – normal sausages he told us, produce a lot of fat in the pan while cooking.

So, a Chef, who has cooked in many establishments including high end hotels, was shocked at the lack of fat in our sausages. He was so used to seeing loads of fat coming out of sausages during cooking.

The secret?

Organic sausages.

Not only are they a lot less fatty, containing much more meat, organic sausages taste so much better than the ordinary sausages you will find at your local supermarket or large grocery store.

My wife and I are not fanatical about eating organic. Not everything we eat is organic. Most is however. Most times, organic food tastes better. In the case of organic sausages, there is a lot less fat and much more meat.

Eating organic food will help your body in many ways. Organic sausages are a classic example. If you want to feel better, a key area to examine is what you are eating. It is not just all about the head stuff. Feeling better, happier and so on is a holistic thing.

Do you honestly think those cheap sausages you buy at the supermarket are full of goodness? If you need further clarification perhaps speak with an accountant who will be able to explain the business model behind cheap and nasty sausages and why you get what you pay for.

Just recently I tried a new flavor…Macadamia Honey Chicken Sausages ** containing certified organic chicken. Yummy! Try finding that flavor at your big supermarket. (I will tell Gold Coast residents where I get mine later in this article). **Made by The Meat-Ting Place Pty Ltd.

Organic sausages are available in a remarkable variety of flavors and meat types. I live on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia and will list some suppliers for my area at the end of this article. If you live elsewhere then I suggest seeking out your local natural/health/organic type food store.

One of the key drivers/dynamics behind why much organic food and drink is so good is that a lot of it (not all mind you) is produced by people who care deeply about their product and their customers. Sure, they make a profit and are in business to do so, however many are not governed by an army of barking shareholders who want to make as much out of you as possible, all the while stuffing you with crap.

Many of the people running and working in organic type stores/retailers care about their customers too – much more so than the often bored souls we meet in the big supermarkets, who long for closing time, smoko or lunch.

If you want to improve your health and that of those you love, and have a much more pleasant shopping experience with a better and wider choice, shop natural and organic.

Here are just some examples of products we enjoy…
