Dont think i am pregnant... pity cos I would make a fortune, but I have developed a craving for a pigs trotter. I have hunted high and low in Bristol without success. are these delightful and delicious delicacies still available in this country and where? I would be prepared to travel in order to stafy my cravings.

Whats the difference between trotters and chitterlings?

i believe they sell ostrich and kangaroo meat also

i have shopped there

a real traditional butchers

even got sawdust lol

Claire trotters are the feet.. complete with toenails lol and chitterling are the innards... both delicious lol

Sandie lol they most certainly arent

ohhhhhhhhh,yuck lol.

I was at a wedding on Fri. Lentil soup, Breast of Angus Chicken fillet with haggis,on a bed of saute potatoes. I dont eat haggis so I had the outside of the chicken breast and the three bits of potato that came with it ,probably cost a fortune too.
The tiny wee cheesecake was good though lol

Marion

Most of the top London restaurants have trotters on thei menus at the moment

yes Sandie they are the intestines. Never had them boiled are battered. Always cold ith vinegar and pepper and bread and butter. Obviously they have been cooked before purchase lol

Have seen trotters.cant be much eating in them is there?

very tasty Marion but maybe more fat than meat. there was a recent article in the telegraph saying that trotters were becoming all the rage for female anti ageing as they are super rich in colligen whatever its called lol

Pigs' feet: the new superfood

As Britain's spending on cosmetic surgery soars, Fiona MacDonald Smith suggests it's time that we chopped and changed our diet instead

The latest anti-ageing food? Pigs' trotters. That's right, you heard it here first. In New York, the most talked-about new opening of the past couple of months has been a Japanese restaurant called Hakata Tonton, where 33 out of the 39 dishes contain pigs' feet.


Isn't there a cheaper solution to cosmetic surgery?
The reason for this, according to its owner, Himi Okajima, is that they are rich in collagen, the protein responsible for skin and muscle tone, more recognisable to beauty addicts in the form of face creams and fillers.

"Collagen helps your body retain moisture," says Okajima, who has introduced a chain of restaurants specialising in collagen cuisine in Japan. "Your hair and skin will look better, but it's not just for looking beautiful now. If you begin eating collagen in your thirties, you will look younger in your forties."

I think I'll just get wrinkes lol

pmsl just looked out of the window and the M5 is solid with lady drivers heading down to Taunton
