Saturday blogging: the Doody faggots

Here’s the Doody family who in spite of their last name, which would have brought chuckles from every preschooler in our area, look very nice:

So nice, they’ve been crowned The Faggot Family, and

to kick off their reign they will launch National Faggot Week.

which is sponsored by Mr. Brain’s faggots.

No, not this Mr. Brain.

Fred Doody, the dad, basks in his enthusiasm for the great British faggot:

“The great British faggot is full of flavour and a great belly warmer at this time of year.”

I’ll make a mental note of that, since I’ve never had a great British faggot (at least not to the best of my knowledge), but I really liked spotted dick.

Mr. Doody’s not alone; the Beeb article states, “Fans have published the Good Faggot Guide“.

Go on…grab some faggots for tea tonight

Update, Sunday 15 April: A friend sent two recipes for spotted dick:
the The Foody‘s, and the Beeb‘s which has two parts, the dick and the custard.

No, I didn’t need to make any of this up.

Digg!
Technorati tags faggots, food

    LOL!
    And someone emailed asking if I’d had a not-so-great British faggot.
    To which the answer is no.
