Probably needs more context but I did my lower back lifting an old 40kg bronze monkey statue thing sitting on darwin's origin of species contemplating the evolution of homo sapiens to clean it the other day. Been thinking.. irony here is that fucking monkey if it were alive could've lifted it itself with like less than half the effort.

I thought I used the kneez but obviously not well enough.

The skin on cooked feels slightly rubbery to me. Plus when they're cooked they look like something the dog has chewed.

I haven't had those in ages. I remember at a catered Christmas party I got serve them as mini hotdogs in dinner rolls. Do recommend. Skin off for me too. There's enough questionable ingredients inside them, don't need the mystery red/orange wrapper too. Uncircumcised for everything else, though.

I never thought of that. So they're probably made with the skins on then taken off. 🤔

Still the price difference is ridiculous. Don's rorting.
