Witnesses are allowed to eat sausage COMPONENTS, as long as they are not brought together to make a whole sausage.
Why is that so difficult to understand?

If you take a giant step back and look at these kinds of issues you suddenly become aware of the craziness!
This invisible friend (in the sky) is quirky, isn't he? Jehovah is obsessive/compulsive about his friend's behavior (we humans). He requires that you perform certain rituals or he goes into a lather and might kill you if you don't comply.
WHO NEEDS IT?
God! It is downright alarming to think I ever spent a moment of my time thinking this way. It is mental illness and nothing less.
God gets pissed off if you eat a sausage? Wow!
Get a friendlier God next time!!
Sausages are served on plates.
John the Baptists head was delivered to Herods Missus on a plate, Pontius Pilate washed his hands in a plate like bowl and the harlot drinks the blood of the righteous in Revelation out of a cup shaped plate.
So since everytime a plate is mentioned it is a bad thing and sausages are served on plates, JWs can't eat sausages.

Is it monthly or bi-monthly pickle?
I'm not sure. I did overhear several Witnesses say they got the pickle every time the CO came to town.
Whats wrong with cumberland sausage, we ate then all the time.
Crumpet, whats wrong with cumberland sausage, we ate them all the time?
I think UK and US sausages are quite different.

Vitty! Cumberland sausages had blood in them - they were slaughtered differently or something. So when we stayed at any B&B's we had to check that the sausages were not cumberland ones and if they were - well they got to stay on the plate along with black pudding and the red smarties!
I think anyone who has eaten as much crow as the Witnesses have, should be allowed to eat sausage. . . it's only fair.
while a JW a worker got me by saying , how can you eat meat when there is no possible way to completely bleed it?
I asked the Circuilt Overseer who was in town...
his answer was
Jehovah is neither an extremist nor an absolutist...
seems dying for blood loss is pretty extreme if a transfusion will fix it...
