I don't know about that .... if a goat can make the headlines, why not the dearth of good old fashioned suet in the Great White North:confused:

I wonder if whale blubber would do?:D

Suet is the fat trimmed from around kidneys
Suet
so abbatoirs will have it - the link indicates that nowadays it is removed before the butcher gets the carcass

Oh my word that was the worst job I ever had to do when I first started as an Apprentance (sp) Butcher when I left school. The sfuff used to flake all over the place and smell...........................:(

But is sold like hot cakes though (this was early/mid 70's)

I found suet:theband: .... and guess where? The pet food store! They have it in balls .... for the birds ... you hang the balls on the clothes line, or on a tree branch, and the birds just love it, especially in winter. Now, how do I shred the damn stuff .... witht a cheese grater or something like that:confused:

Eric, I pity you living in a suet-poor country. There are all those suet puddings, as well, that you're missing out on. Is the steak pudding completely unknown in Canada? :eek:

No its not traditional West Ender, but there's a lot of things in lanky that are not traditional but they're good. I love the crust on home made tatta pie, like mi granny used to make, and I'd die (not literally) for one of her steak puddngs in't rag.

It does take a leap of faith doesn't it?
but when you think what junk gets served up for human consumption, I think I would risk it

Don't think I would somehow, would quite happily send some over rather than Eric taking a risk

Starving Canadians:eek: Need food packages .... that's kinda funny:D

But it is strange that one can get all kinds of ethnic foods here .... for example, if you are Portuguese (Kingson has a large number of people of Portuguese descent) you have no trouble getting large slabs of salt cod, or spicy sausage, or squid. Also Italian food, Greek food, East Indian food etc, etc .... but English "ethnic" ... forget it .... except for fish and chips. Can also get moose, deer, pemmican, buffalo ... but no god damned suet ..... unless you are a bird:mad:
