message: Can somebody clear something up for me..? I have heard that smokies are very favourable? If so does anyone know what they taste like and why they are such a Delicacy, is that why there are still available on the black market? Surely they must taste really good for people to still buy and eat them with all the health risks?
I guess since not many people would consider eating one, will we ever have a good definition of what they taste like... :(

thread_title:  Delicacy?? 

message: Smokies hav their skin and fur attached, and also include the head.  The spinal column is left intact, as are the eyes and brain.  These are designated as Risk Material, and carry a high incidence of prions such as BSE.  As they are illegal, they are produced without the supervision of a Meat Hygiene Service Inspector, so quality control systems are non-existent.  Furthermore, as some cash strapped farmers try to make a few bucks (no thanks to our government), the temptation to kill a few old sheep taht would otherwise not bring in any money is great, and such sheep are more likely to carry life threatening illnesses.
So, eat them if you want, but don't moan when your brain is turned to slush a few years on. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 86.2.61.2 (talk) 18:43, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
