Mr. Brains In Rich Sauce

Used to love these, hadn't had them for ages so bought some expecting the same. They are AWFUL soggy, tasteless mush. NEVER buy them again, not even sure there was ANY actual meat in them to be honest. Brains go back to the original recipe and advertise the fact or you have lost a customer. 1/10 yuk.

I recently revisited an old food staple from my childhood, Mr Brain's Faggots, during a visit to my family. Unfortunately, the experience was less than satisfactory.

These faggots, cooked from frozen, are certainly budget-friendly at less than £3 for a pack. However, the quality reflects the price. The texture was more akin to jelly than meat, which was quite off-putting The flavour was vaguely reminiscent of meat, but far from appetising.

The product's composition is concerning. With only 3% pork content, it's clear that the emphasis is on meeting the bare minimum nutritional standards rather than providing a quality meal. The faggots contain a high proportion of offal, but even this seems to be insufficient to enhance the taste or texture meaningfully.

It's disappointing to see that the priority appears to be shareholder value over product quality. While frozen food can be preserved for longer periods, this product felt past its prime despite being well within its shelf life.

In summary, Mr Brain's Faggots are a budget option that I would not recommend. The low meat content and unappealing textu e it a product best left in the freezer.

the font is tiny you need a magnifying glass to read not only the instructions of how to heat but the allergy information. how is one suppose to guard against eating something one is allergic to if they can't read it. Maybe the don't care as long as the picture looks good. What a shame the customer does not count. L. Wilkins

Bought them because we used to love them. Today the dogs had a good tea. Don't want to say disgusting in case I get grief from dog lovers it's the last time they will be in my shopping basket.

They were truly awful, no flavour at all. The only taste there was, was than of a disgusting amount of SALT. They should be banned from selling these awful meatless Faggots.

If you are unlucky to have an obnoxious mother in law, this is the best gift available in my view. This once culinary treat that imparted fabulous flavour is now replaced by this vile taste of recycled animal leftovers. My dogs food smells nicer when opened than what emanates from this sorry comestible item.

I can't really add anything else to the reviews on here. They are disgusting. I Was so looking forward to them having enjoyed them in the past. The quicker they remove them from the freezer the better. Wish there was a 'no star' option. Not fit for a dog to eat.

Used to love these faggots. Bought box this week and tried today. They were atrocious. No texture, absolute mush, no meat at all, just seemed rusk which was mushy and looked just like baby food. There was absolutely NO TASTE at all, no seasoning or spices. Broke in pieces trying to remove from container. Ah well, won't be buying any more ever. The only thing which seemed that same as I remember was the box, which I think would probably have been much tastier. Only gave one star review, as I personally do not think it even warrants that but to submit this review had to give a star rating.

Childhood Saturday lunch, whilst watching Big Daddy on the wrestling was often Brains' Faggots, chips, and peas, if I was very lucky. The faggots were firm, and meaty, and the gravy was to die for. I felt very excited at seeing these in the supermarket recently, alas I bought ten boxes … the last ten boxes I'll ever buy.

After cooking them, I tried the once traditional (in our house) way of removing them, with some tongs, they just disintegrated, there's no actual texture to these, any more, they're just a shaped mush of sweepings, lips, and anus, in a bland sauce, nothing like the firm, tasty, faggots of the 90s.

If you're experiencing a bit of nostalgia, and thinking about treating yourself to a packet of Brains' Faggots, stop, don't do it, buy a Walls Vienetta instead.
