What the FUCK is Hazlet?

 Never heard of it til I moved to East Manc. It’s rife round here. Quite tasty actually. Proper stuff is a bit like white pudding. Needs decent amount of herbs and spices in it though otherwise it’s shite

Like white pudding, black pudding, cheaper cuts of meat, etc it’s way tastier than supposed expensive stuff. Peasant food indeed but peasants know how to make food tasty

Stick your bland fillet steaks up your hoop. Not your hoop particularly btw

I don't know - but those early morning shopping types in Morrisons loved the stuff.

That and off cuts for free for their dogs.

They often smelt of biscuits.

God knows. I was 17, thats 31 years ago shockingly. Might be a gentrified hipster counter now where Hazlet is the most trendy of processed meat cuts.

They have it at a local market and it’s not cheap. Ashton-Under-Lyne market isn’t the epicentre of hipsterism :D

When I resided in Crawley, there was a place next to it called Pease Pottage which is named after the dish, even though its more Northern heritage.

Havent got a clue why though. Passed my driving test there.

I worked in Hampshire for a few years and Faggots were popular there, the only peas you could get in chippies though were " pea fritters" Crap, like a few dried up peas in a battered ball.

The fish looked awesome big and well crispy batter, unfortunately they were always full of skin & bones, Shite!
