True, or indeed too few devils on horseback. I hope none of you have to suffer the ignominy of biting into one thinking it's a pig in a blanket, as I once did.

It’s fine, we are all vegans on here now.

A non believer, the bacon collective will lay waste to your views and systematic destruction of their ways!

This is possibly the most correct collection of posts ever posted by anyone, ever.

I just looked up devils on horseback, why would anyone make those? They sound horrendous.

Dates with bacon are lovely. I can’t see how anyone would swap a date for a prune and call it an improvement though!

Sounds like the kind of thing really old people enjoy eating.

My mother-in-law, who is mental, calls pigs in blankets "pigs on horseback". I think I prefer that name.

Would cross-species “in” be less or more perverted?

What's the Northern name for pigs in blankets? Twiddleflumps?

No, that’s a marshmallow wrapped in bacon.

I thought it was something Savile did.

Pigs int blankets is the Northern name. The Southern equivalent I believe is "Gloucester Old Spot Hog cylinders nestled in a cured pork eiderdown".

Northerners would only use the word "Eiderdown" in a sentence such as "Eider'down as one o them so-fist-i-cates but tee-urns owt she was a reet wrong un"... so "blankets" had to suffice.
