KIdney failure?

[Dorsetmike]

Have they bred some cattle and pigs without kidneys? Local Tescos only stock lambs kidneys, my local butcher only gets them to order, I have to go about 9 miles out into the sticks for a butcher that actually has some in stock!

How is one supposed to make a decent steak and kidney stew, casserole, "snake and pygmy" pie or "Kate and Sidney" pudding without ox kidney? Pigs kidney just doesn't taste quite right and lambs kidney is a complete waste of time for those dishes (and others).

If the animals still have 2 each, where are they all going?

I seem to remember a visiting niece from across the pond who expressed considerable misgivings about consuming liver and kidneys, is this disappearance of Kidney from our shops another transatlantic influence creeping in to further destroy our heritage and way of life??????????

It does seem strange Mike, perhaps there has been a problem we don't know about.
