Far be it from me to endorse any one grocery store over the other, but in case anyone was wondering… the Fas Check on Charleston’s West Side carries the fine line of sausage products endorsed by Country legend George Jones.
George Jones Sausage has been out for a couple of years, but this is the first time I’ve seen it offered locally. It’s reasonably priced, too –about two-fifty a tube, which is cheaper than some of the name brands, including those represented by other country stars.
Produced by the Williams Sausage company, George’s sausage uses premium cuts and has special blend of flavorings made for Jones particular taste.
Per the website, George is a believer.
“I wouldn’t put my name on anything that wasn’t the best,” Jones says. “I never want to disappoint my fans.”
Start your day, the George Jones way. Apparently, these days that involves eating a big greasy, artery clogging breakfast –and at George’s age, washing it down with a warm cup of decaf, but I remember when it used to be picking a fight with a police officer, skipping work and driving your lawnmower to the liquor store.
I kind of miss that.
(Sigh)
Well, there’s always Lindsay Lohan.
I wonder if she’ll ever get a line of sausage?
