Mother of Mercy—Is this the end of Mr. Brain's Faggots?

Thank you. My life is complete.

It seems to be that Americans waxing poetic about Mr. Brain’s Faggots is like Britons waxing poetic about Fanny Farmer Candies. 'Course, maybe that’s just me.

Hmm. I wonder if I could turn a decent profit exporting foods from countries where they have innocent names, to countries where they don’t.

Perhaps the two firms could merge—imagine the company-name possibilities!

Even if you don’t want a meaty faggot in your mouth, those with a non-pig diet could make Toad in the Hole with kosher/halal beef or lamb sausages and I’d bet it’d be just as good. In fact, you really should try it. Serve with a rich onion gravy. Goddamn I wish I weren’t low-carbing at the moment.

I would imagine faggots could be quite readily made with chicken or ox liver, if such is permitted in the diets of those who abstain from pork.

Traditionally, faggots would have contained a broader range of offal than just the liver; It’s probably best if I leave it at that.

Mangetout Jewish cuisine has no problem with the organ meats.

Kosher Faggots-I can see the ads now, a picture of a faggot saying “What am I? Chopped liver?”

Re Toad In The Hole

Hmm, as I see it the real problem isn’t substituting one meat for another but eliminating all dairy products from the batter.

This made me chortle.

Perhaps that could be made by that new, combined company, “Farmer Brain’s Faggot Fannies.”

One of your first big sellers could be Pocari Sweat. :smiley:

Don’t encourage them, just leave it where I’m not allowed to eat it, ok?

Which Jewish comic said “I’m trying to get a federal law passed. It will require that pork be added to all foods containing chocolate. If they do that, I’ll finally lose weight.”

Probably Totie Fields.

Check out the King Oscar website including Fish Balls, and the side note for those unfamiliar with canned foods, instructions on How to open a can. :smiley:

Stop by the market and take home some Bimbo. Let old man Whipple squeeze the Charmin all he wants. :wink:

I’ve actually seen Bimbo products in a Philadelphia market. I will always associate that cheerful bear with sorrow.

I just thought the name was a poor choice. The friend I was with squealed “Bimbo!” and grabbed a loaf. Apparently, Bimbo is a leading brand in Panama. As she had lived there until she was seven, she viewed Bimbo as something of a comfort food. She was very excited to find a loaf of Bimbo pretoasted bread here in Philly. Why is the bread pretoasted? Because so many people in Panama have no electricity. Toasting bread removes much of the moisture, so it keeps longer without being refrigerated. Selling the bread already toasted means that the customers don’t have turn it on a spit, or bake it in a woodburning stove.

Exactly why she views a food from a time of poverty, lizards on the walls and ceiling, and the odd piranha in the local waters as a thing of comfort confuses me to this day.

Man, reading this thread has me craving a banger with a good faggot.

I wonder if they’re any good with cock sauce?

That stuff sounds great, Sol, but fess up.
Did you know about cock sauce with the chicken on the jar or did you google it up?

:slight_smile:

Are you kidding? I live in the SF Bay Area – two things I know about are Vietnamese restaurants and faggots.

(And really, that’s usually called “rooster sauce.” I was actually trying to find this image, but I can’t really do a google search for “cock gravy” while I’m at work.)

“I"m Bruce” “I’m Dick”

“Does this restaurant serve faggots?”

“We serve anybody!”
