Seconded. As indeed are fagots in gravey. Yumma.

Faggots in gravy.

[Btd] I thought that was just serious food...

"Fagotto" is Italian for bassoon. Can't see how this helps but it's true nevertheless.

[Rosie]... coming from the french word for 'bundle of sticks' (fagot). Can't see how this helps either, but I always thought it was interesting.

I ate a vegetarian haggis before - it was delicious! No idea if it tasted like REAL haggis though..

does it not all come from the latin "fasces" ?
speaking of food, a colleague of mine went to THE FAT DUCK in Bray for her wedding anniversary a couple of weeks ago, and is still reeling.
Anyone fancy a bad tempered game ?

snorgle] I am a big fan of the veggie haggis. The spices are the same as the meaty variety, so the flavour is very similar. What make the (McSween) veggie haggis so good is that it is full of real ingredients (nuts and veg) and none of that soya meat substitute nonsense.
