Wherein we all go crazy trying to figure out whether myt is some clever Remington pun that we didn't understand or just a simple typo.

Don't be such a heel, TEd (says he, with an arch look) you know he's dying for a good welting.

EDIT; (my apologies to anyone who didn't understand me - I was speaking with an Oxford brogue.I will now restrain my self, as I guess I'll court disaster if I try to slipa nother pun in.)

i suspect, they did something similar back home in germany or eastern europe-- scrapple doesn't have a meat name...
we do not pretend that we have meat when it is not so.
Eastern European sausages still have more meat and less fat than, for example, British sausages. in fact, many Russians who live in UK complain that they can not eat "horrible things they call sausages".

backward technology is not always bad where it concers food.

"horrible things they call sausages".

To paraphrase Bismarck: You're better off not knowing how sausages and politics are made.

Dear AS: On a Public Health field trip, we went to meat packing plant, and among other
bits of jollity, saw sausage skins like tenyard condoms having one end hitched to a spigot
which then forced the ground meat into the condom, producing the most activelty writhing
phallus imaginable. One of the girls told me it gave her nightmares.

Of course putting ground meat into large intestine of an animal was much more aethetic.

Edit typo for aesthetic. Baltimore oysters make you aesthetic. Boston baked beans
make you astute.

Cool word. Must look it up!

Edit: Well, shoot. I was hoping that yours wasn't a misspelling. I was hoping that "aethetic" would be some sort of antonym for aesthetic.

I just read a typo of my own. I'd typed "anytonym" instead of "antonym." But I like "anytonym." An anytonym can be a word operating any way you want it to!
