Mennonite sausage

Michel Boucher said:

I bought some on the recommendation of the butcher. I can find various
recipes but most use canned ingredients of some sort, which is not
reassuring. What am I getting myself in for?

Are they made with real Mennonites?

I think they're only allowed to make them from those that have been
excommunicated.

If it is minnonite farmer Sausage...It works well in soups, in a bun
with mustard or brazed with saur kraut. It is eaten quite commonly off
the grill in BBQ season. Or fried in medalions in a pan.

It's a pork Sausage that has a slightly dry taste...mild almost nuetral
in taste.

Do Mennonites do communion? I thought not. In that case, how can they
be ex-communicated?

Thanks. All the butcher would say was that they were interesting.
These are made with organic pork meat (as opposed to long-chain
polymer pork meat, I assume). We'll be trying them on Boxing Day
with crèpes.

Think again!

"Most traditional Mennonite churches have two parts to the Communion
service - footwashing and the serving of the “bread and wine,” or what we
refer to as the Lord’s Supper. In some of the more modern groups,
Communion is only the serving of the Lord’s Supper. In these groups,
footwashing is a separate service held maybe once or twice a year. On
Maundy Thursday many congregations have a light meal together, observe the
Lord’s Supper, and have footwashing. The number of times a congregation
observes Communion is a decision of that congregation. Many observe it
quarterly, others twice a year."

So then they can be exfootwashed as well as excommunicated.

So it would seem.

Agree. Wonder if the Hutterites also shun?

I believe that all varieties of Brethren do: Quakers, Shakers,
Quiverers, Mennonites, Hutterites, Amish...

It's a "well-knowed fack" (tm applied fer, y'all).
