References edit

This is a difficult article to find refs from reliable English-language sources for, but please add any you find. There are plenty of German mentions, and plenty of mentions from people in English-speaking countries who are selling their own interpretation of a Jagdwurst, but we need better. The sausage itself is significant - it's a standard variety available all over Germany, Austria and Switzerland, not a niche product. Guffydrawers (talk) 12:07, 4 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Pocket knife edit

How exactly does a pocket knife fit into this article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.5.147.37 (talk) 05:08, 17 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

I couldn't find any proof that it should fit in the article, so removed it. Jagdwurst is a cold cut, not ideal for taking to work or taking hunting as it's in a thin skin and should be kept cool. Great in a sandwich or in a soup, but for outdoor pursuits like hunting the go-to sausages are dried, long-life varieties like Landjäger and Kabanossi. These don't need cooling (or cutting, if thin), just put in your pocket or backpack, and off you go. Where the name came from is the subject of much conjecture and the explanation in the German WP article that it's from meat scraps left in a carriage that accompanied huntsman is not conclusive, or, in my opinion, convincing.
