Viewers were absolutely appalled by a Late Late Show segment last night

During the Late Late Show last night, there was a segment on how sausages are really made – and let's just say, it didn't go down well.

To make matters worse, the audience and viewers became very frustrated when Ryan Tubridy began to play with a pig’s head which was sitting on a table.

Some didn’t think the head should have even been there and others thought it was highly distasteful of Ryan to play with it. It's safe to say that Twitter was absolutely flooded with complaints:
