Of course, a lot of modern sausages are exactly like this. If you can, you want to get your sausages from a proper pork butcher. I can recommend Curtis in Lincoln UK, particularly (not surprisingly) their Lincolnshire sausages - pork flavoured with sage and pepper. Redhill Farm Shop just down the street is also good for sausages. I guess we (Lincoln residents) are lucky to have such high quality high quality food shops so close together!
