Great Britain

[edit]

What standard items of British cuisine could be called the "ham sausage" described in this article? I can't think of any, and the linked-to British cuisine article has none. "Native" British sausages are almost always made from uncooked pork (or sometimes beef or venison). I'm being bold and removing GB from this article — feel free to restore if better references can be given than the single link to a generic food dictionary. Incidentally, "Great Britain" is the name of an island, not a country; United Kingdom encompasses England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. And what about the famous cured ham sausages of Italy, France, Austria, Spain… Bazza (talk) 16:19, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Absolutely. Poor article - no link to pork sausage? Secretlondon (talk) 18:38, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Secretlondon: Pork sausage is a redirect to Sausage, and "sausage" is linked in the article. North America1000 18:40, 7 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Bazza 7:: Regarding "and what about the famous cured ham sausages of Italy, France, Austria, Spain": I added content to the article regarding soppressata, which is sometimes prepared using ham. Perhaps you could provide some additional examples here? Note that many sausages are made using pork, but those made specifically using ham, which is typically prepared using only from the hind leg of pigs, do not seem to be as common (per source searches).

How many tons?

[edit]

"According to statistics, China's ham sausage export to Japan stood at only 3 1 tons in 1996, accounting for a mere 0.2% of ..." Is that 31 tons or 3.1 tons or what?--Khajidha (talk) 14:42, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
