Thoughts on faggots?
>>
>>21612759
Idk not British but hope they pair well with spotted dick.
>>
>>21612759
yeah, mature thoughts. they’re just meatballs
>>
>>21612759
It's a faggy British thing, not found in the Americas.
>>
>>21612759
Cigarettes I understand, but what's the etymological context around calling sausages that? Is it because they were smoked/cooked in bundles?
>>
>>21612759
There's something pleasing about getting two faggots in your mouth at once, I can't explain it
>>
>>21612811
Maybe he's lighting one fag up for his girl, then passing it off?

Wikipedia has no information on why they're called faggots. Brave AI said this when I searched "british meatball faggot etymology"
>The etymology of the word "faggot" for this food item is linked to its method of preparation and presentation. It derives from the Old English word for a bundle of sticks, referring to how the meat mixture is wrapped in fat, resembling a bundle.
>This connection is supported by the historical use of the word "faggot" to mean a bundle of twigs or sticks, a meaning that dates back to the late 13th century.
>The dish's name is unrelated to the modern derogatory slang term for a male homosexual, which emerged in 20th-century American English and is considered offensive.
>The association with a "bundle" is also reflected in the term "fagoting," a weaving technique where threads are bound into bundles.

>While some have speculated that the word might derive from a Romance term for liver (such as Italian fegato or French foie), the prevailing etymological consensus, supported by sources like the Oxford English Dictionary and Etymonline, points to the "bundle of sticks" origin, likely from Old French fagot or Latin fascis.
>This etymology is considered more plausible than the proposed link to liver, as the word fagot in Old French and Latin is of uncertain origin but is widely associated with the concept of a bundle.
>The dish's name, therefore, reflects its physical form rather than its ingredients.

Britbong here I've eaten that brand and many menus especially in restaurants out in the countryside will feature faggots on the menu.

Imagine a meatball that is extremely tender, but also tastes slightly of liver and lots of herbs, they're served with a meat gravy.

>>21612936
You're not wrong. I couldn't find why this kind of British meatballs are called faggots. I hate referring to AI garbage but I could not find anything else that offered a reasonable explanation. If you have a real source that explains the etymology please post it.

It's an old food, a better question would be how the word faggot led to being a homosexual
>>
>hurr durr why do the British have a dish named some used as a pejorative for a homosexual when the dish was named long before the slur was popularised durr
Americans. Some of the stupidest and most ignorant people around.

>>21612940
British "people" really eat jellied eels and pigeons
>>
>>21613563
>Forgetting jellied pigeons and mushy pilchards in bovril
>>
>>21612956
>a better question would be how the word faggot led to being a homosexual
faggot women were old women that collected sticks to sell as fire wood
old women are annoying karens
faggot also means an annoying person
homos are feminine not-men, old homos are also bitchy and annoying

mash it all together and you get faggot(gay)

>>21612759
Pork is for infidels. Odd that they sell it on a majority Muslim continent.

>>21612796

This. I'd rather not know or read a book than trust AI bullshit. People are fucking retarded.

>>21612759
Best served with mushy peas and lots of vinegar.
If you're a faggot lover you should take a trip to the Welsh market town of Neath.

Neath is Wales' Faggots 'n' Peas capital

>>21613679

>>
>>21612759
My thoughts? Youre ok OP even though you are one
>>
>>21612759
Still very cheap which makes me worried about whats in them. Last time I had them they were pretty good
>>
>>21612820
>Old French fagot
Yeah I bet there’s a lot of those
>>
>>21613721
They're literally made with lungs, heart and liver. they're offal technically hence why theyre cheap
>>
>>21612940
Liver dumplings were hunkers favorite food.
Make of that what you will.
>>
>>21612940
>a meatball that is extremely tender, but also tastes slightly of liver and lots of herbs
sounds decent desu, will try them if i ever end up over there
>>
>>21613721
>>21613969
Might also be related to the fact that nobody cooks organ food at home anymore in the west, so the price of those organs basically have to keep going town no matter inflation etc, where as muscle meat is more desired than ever so the low cost processed foods have to use less and less good cuts and mix in other shit to make up the losses
>>
>>21614080
Faggots are the best kept secret food and their convenient name will forever make them a cheap, unfavoured choice by most people.
>>
>>21613969
I'm aware. Been eating them since the 90s. But for a frozen convenience food they're still very cheap. Couple of years ago I was buying them for around £1 and they're like 650g of meat product.
>>
>>21612940
I wonder how Britbongs even use social media
>>
>>21613645
England isn't a continent, Achmed. Its an island.
