Last night's Late Late audience couldn't cope with how sausages are made

Oh dear.

SOME PEOPLE FOUND last night’s Late Late a little difficult to watch.

alate11 RTÉ RTÉ

Philip Boucher-Hayes appeared to chat about his show, What Are You Eating? (if you’re not familiar with it, it featured an exposé on chicken fillet rolls last month).

The journalist’s appearance included a demonstration on how sausages are made, live in studio.

Some people couldn’t handle it…

Basically, all sorts of everything goes into a sausage…

Including pig rectum, sodium tripolyphosphate, fat, salt, and a load of chemicals…

There was even a pig’s head on display…

The audience were disgusted

    @Kevin Hill: they were on ground that was drying so were going to die. Did the same myself in early march and have a few thousand tadpoles in a pond which I’ll be releasing as soon as they are frogs. Could have been famous too!

    Illegal… Jesus every child the far side of the red cow collected tadpoles as a kid, and caught bees in a jam jar.

    Jesus I’ve been doing this for years, because frogs return to the same spot every year to spawn so they generally spawn in drainage ditches near us which end up drying up. So we collect them, rear them and release them in a nature reserve near us also. Never thought to put it on the internet. Guess I missed my five minutes of fame.
    The world we live in now everything is a sensation.

    That’s more than a jar of frogspawn, I hope they will be released eventually
