regional delicacies


A west Midlands family is playing a central role in the quest to raise the profile of a forgotten British dish - faggots.

The Doody family from Wolverhampton has been crowned The Faggot Family in a national competition, and to kick off their reign they will launch National Faggot Week.


could you make that up? i mean, "the doody family from wolverhampton"? that is hilarious in and of itself---and wikipedia informs us:

The best-known commercial brand is Mr Brain's Faggots, a
frozen food product available in Britain and Ireland, which is made of liver and onions rolled into meatballs and served in a sauce. These faggots differ significantly from the traditional recipe.
