    Corn dogs are battered though. A beef wellington is actually a posh sausage roll.

    Pigs in Blankets are this (pork sausage wrapped in bacon):

    What you’re describing is a sausage roll (pork sausage wrapped in pastry):

    I’m all for American versions of things, but please get these staples of British cuisine right.

      Kind of ironic this is where you’re making a stand.

      The first known use of the recipe for pig in a blanket, the American cuisine, was in 1940 by the US military.

      The first known use of the recipe for pigs in blankets, the British cuisine, was in 1957 and was inspired by British soldiers who tried the American version during WWII.

        But the American monstrosity is a rip-off of sausage rolls, which originated centuries ago. They gave a name to something that they should have known to already exist. Frankly, I’m all for revoking America’s independence and returning them to secondary colony status over this…

      Are the UK pigs are always wrapped in bacon? In the states the “blanket” is far more commonly some sort of bread, like puff pastry.

        The states are wrong. That’s a sausage roll, and it’s been a sausage roll for decades. The whole “pig in a blanket” thing is a new thing from people that basically reinvented the sausage roll and didn’t have the sense to check if it already existed.

        I’m not exaggerating when I say that wars were started over less, and Australia and the UK would probably happily have their finger on the nuclear button if America doesn’t come to its senses and just embrace the correct food names…

        Anger aside, I’m absolutely shocked that Greggs hasn’t tried to make its way stateside. Extremely cheap, fast food that’s greasy as fuck, has barely any nutritional value, and so convenient that you can just eat it out of the bag - sounds like an American dream.

          I’ve found American food is generally less liquidy grease than british food. Americans don’t want fried chicken dripping in grease, they want it dried then covered in various sauces. Also places like golden corral and cracker barrel already exist and are kinda dying

            No idea why this is downvoted, America does love a condiment. Thankfully, sausage rolls are extremely dippable, and some people do decide to dunk them in all sorts. It’s not something I’d do, but I’d tolerate it.

          Sausage roll does not apply since hot dogs are not sausages. And I love sausage rolls.

    No, corn dogs are just wellingtons.

    Everything is either a soup, a sandwich, or a wellington.

          Yeah Wellington is a sandwich. So are hotdogs and hamburgers (when sandwiched between bread). Wellingtons as just meat uncrustables (RIP).
