You paid for some faggots two or three weeks ago and you’re just now having them for dinner? Geez, and I thought _I_ took things too slowly.

Diligent research turned up [this active site](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/faggots.htm) featuring Mr. Brain’s creations. Should your tastes run more to the Scandinavian, you can also get [Iceland faggots](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/faggots2.htm).

That site proved to be most interesting. Here, for example, are [Mini-Dickmanns](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/minidickmanns.htm). And, of course, extensive previous discussion has already been done in regards to [Spotted Dick](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/dick.htm), which is “a favorite of schoolchildren throughout England.” Hmmmm…

And of course faggots are traditionally served with peas and chips, such as these [Pricks.](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/prick.htm).

And certainly anyone interested in the previous topics of the culinary art would find their meal topped off by a treat of some [Spunk](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/spunk.htm) – which intriguingly was named by Astrid Lindgren of Pippi Longstocking fame! Or perhaps you’d prefer a [Gaytime.](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/gaytime.htm) Also on our dessert menu is a [Banana Bum Bum](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/bumbum.htm). I positively refuse to write a double entendre link to [this](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/odds/spermdrink.htm).

Those of differing tastes may prefer some [Jussipussi](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/jussipussi.htm). Clearly you will want, with it, some [Bush](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/food/bush.htm). And in tribute to the lady who first discovered faggots on the SDMB, allow me to take you to a page in honor of [Evaspussi](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/odds/evaspussi.htm). And I honestly don’t know what to make of [this](http://freespace.virgin.net/daz.bert/mirror/rudefood/odds/slutspurt.htm).
