There is excellent food most places: it depends on the chef and the ingredients.
I've eaten well in Wales, London, Paris, even in Dusseldorf (though that did take some serious effort to find). Heck, I've eaten well in Dallas! I've also eaten cr@p in all those places.
But...I've never had bad (or even average!) food in Thailand, Malaysia, or Singapore. Even the street food has always been orders of magnitude better than the "fast food" in any western country I've been to.

Reminds me of last years vacation at Balaton, where street vendor food was generally better than at the tourist traps.
With one bright and shiny exception in Tihany. But it also cost four times as much. 
Let's see how Tuscany treats us this year.

Actually that's wrong, very wrong. I have eaten some very good food there.

The difference between tomato ketchup and jam is really rather insignificant! Redcurrant jelly has been served with game for centuries and mincemeat was originally exactly that ... all the fruit and spices of the current product plus minced beef. Ham and bacon are both cured with maple syrup, marmalade, etc. So what's new?

tomato-vinegar-salt-sugar vs sugar-strawberry is insignificant? You have odd taste buds.
Yes, meat has been served with fruit sauces, but they are more like chutneys, than a jam.

Main ingredients for both are fruit and sugar.
Not sure I want to try the dausage, but there are plenty of recipes out there that combine meat and sweet.

There is sugar in a chutney but no where near as much as in jam. And of course the vinegar, and vegetables often found in chutneys.

People in the US already eat sausage with jelly so I don't see the big deal. For example, have a breakfast with sausage, eggs, and toast and you end up mixing some jam in with the rest of the food.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Depends on the jam I guess - Pork and apple go very well together, as do apricots and cranberries.
In the Elizabethan era, the use of spices and fruit in savoury recipes was very popular!
But to my palate "Jam" implies "Strawberry" and I'd no sooner touch a sausage stuffed with strawberry jam than I would a deep-fried mars bar!

I guess you start by skinning and filleting a vegetarian.

Why do you think it's called "Long Pig"?

1) Find your Veggie (you can bait a trap with either T*fu or a Bacon Sandwich, either works well)
2) Cut off one leg, release into wild to see if it will regrow. (Works with crabs...)
3) Debone, remove skin and any fat.
4) Trim and roll to form an even sized roll.

Shirley it would be overcooked, I prefer my veggie medium rare.

Depends how thick you roll it.

I thought sheep had legal "person" status in Wales, so why did you just repeat what he said?
