Anything with gravy has my vote. Bonus! Plus I think I may like them as my dad's nickname for me when I was younger was little faggot (it was the 70s, people!)

faggots are really nice, and its a really common thing to eat in the west country. However brains faggots are rubbish, you need to find a butchers that makes them and cook them in the oven in some gravy and onions.

Puddicat, I have met lots of people from up north, and the midlands who have no idea what faggots are.

Faggots - repulsive!!! They're made from the nasty fatty bits of meat, Mary T - and offal.
Taste it, too! x

[Goodsoulette]

and all wrapped up in bladder lining, yummy. Offal is really good for you ice, im surprised you dont like it!

[shanx]

[puddicat]

[Ice.Maiden]

Oh no......I don't want to eat ANY bladder!!!!! Thought that was only haggis......

[Tichfield]

[puddicat]

[Ice.Maiden]

puddicat - I LOVE haggis!!!!! I don't think of the bladder bit, though. Shudder.
It's just faggots - and the gravy....yeurrrgh!!!!!
Surely I'm not on my own in hating them????

[Ice.Maiden]

Heart...liver....gruesome entrails that are only used in faggots, corned beef.........that's it! Going vegetarian!!!! x

[Goodsoulette]

a proper fagot is heart, liver and bacon or pork belly!

[Ice.Maiden]

I remember faggots from around 20+ years ago and I still like them. Mashed pots, peas/carrots Hmmmmmm
I didn't realise all the ingredients - which did put me off (all of 10 seconds) but the junior jd's don't like them.
