Faggots
Does anyone else really enjoy eating faggots nowadays?
I regularly buy them and enjoy them, one of the reminders of my childhood and a food I've never lost the liking for. But I never seem to see or speak to another person that ever eats them. Delicious with mashed potato and peas, I can eat a whole box easily. Always the ones by Mr Brains though. I've never seen another brand on the shelves that I've noticed. Faggots aside, what about any other "childhood" foods that you still like eating as an adult? Spotted Dick was another favourite, but I haven't tried one in years. |

Those ones you cook in the foil dear lord they smell utterly disgusting.
The gravy goes everywhere and its like Tar. I used to like Smash always remember when Mum was in hospital after my sister was born, Dad would make the smash it was like soup the fish fingers would be burned out the outside and freezing cold inside how the hell he managed that I don't know!! hehe |

Pretty much. Haggis is just a massive meatball really.
I'll never understand why people eat this sort of thing. Black Pudding is another one that I don't even need to taste to know is vile. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haggis#...ile:Haggis.JPG Quote:
And if you ever visit the USA I would suggest you do not tell the waiter/waitress you would like to try some either.

A good question was raised by Hypnodisc - Just what is the difference between a faggot and a meatball exactly? ![]() I think the name Mr Brains puts people off them. What else do they actually make? |

I hope I don't still need permission when I'm just past forty. Some people can only ever see an innuendo in the most innocent of thoughts. I just knew it would flush out one or two of you, but it's a legitimate asking point.

Why not post it in Food & Drink then? Surely you'd get legitimate replies as people would assume you're referring to the food item.

I had a friend who would often put his spotted dick inside a faggot, I've no idea why. It'd come out all smelly, and then he'd get someone to eat it afterwards.
