animal parts. Since meats is ground up, certain cuts and parts of an animal that wouldn’t be

and other less appetizing areas of an animal’s body. Very often, the ground up meat and flesh is
mixed well, this meat mixture is then stuffed into the cleaned intestines of the animal, which are
then sealed at both ends. The result is sausage.

far the favorite. In some cultures, sausage made from the meat of horses is considered a delicacy.
When sausages are cooked, the cooking process sometimes adds to the flavor. While boiling is
