We have a 1960 recipe book (McDougall's Super-Sifted Cookery by Janet Johnston) that calls these "Swindon Piglets". 194.75.236.71 ( talk) 12:19, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
I've actually seen these on a restaurant menu as "frankfurters en croute". As Chef Tell says, "Put a little parsley, charge another two-fifty."-- BillFlis 11:51, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
I could find no mention of this dish in a Google search. If it does really exist, I think it's different enough from a pig in a blanket to deserve its own separate article.-- BillFlis 18:15, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
A friend of mine seems quite sure that a pig in a blanket consists of: any type of sausage in a slice of white bread. I treid to correct her, however will have to show her the related article to prove this to her. has anyone heard of a pig in blanket as she describes one?
Growing up, my mom would sometimes serve hot dogs, split with cheese, wrapped in bacon, baked, on a bun. We always called these pigs in a blanket. Is this usage exclusive to my family, or is it some regional thing I am not aware of?
Billflis ur scaring me man, aint you ever gone to the supermarket? These are not hard to find. I eat them all the time in the pack of 60 box. Not all at once obviously. Come to think of it my mom gets them at Costco....
I always thought I heard the term "pigs in a blanket" used to describe maple sausage wrapped in a rolled up pancake. Am I thinking of something else? Should this be added to the article? The T 02:19, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
i'v added explaination of the use of the phrase in u.k. its a very common term here Deformat ( talk) 17:28, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
"its a very common term here" How come I managed to live here 53 years without hearing it? Froggo Zijgeb ( talk 20:42, 31 August 2015 (UTC)

Please someone find a picture that doesn't look truly revolting and undercooked, and like the bacon has some kind of vd. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.24.36.254 ( talk) 00:01, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
The UK section includes the cabbage roll version. Do they call cabbage rolls "pigs in blankets" in the UK? I thought that was just a regional US usage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.59.12.46 ( talk) 10:45, 28 February 2013 (UTC)
The UK section is too opinionated and assertive. The pastry version is common here in the UK too. Here for example is BBC a recipe: BBC Food: Pigs in puff pastry blankets. The bacon version is probably more common at Christmas meals due to simplicity in already using bacon to baste a turkey and not wanting soggy pastry from gravy. For the rest of the Christmas period the pastry version is common (using sausages in their skins, not sausage meat, and hence not a sausage roll). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.20.173.181 ( talk) 14:16, 24 December 2017 (UTC)
Some of these names turned up empty; frankly (haha), they seem like they might be a joke/vandalism. Any substantiation on the following would be appreciated: franks in the jackets, biscuit dogs, fingers in a band-aid, monkeys undercover. When I took out tranny dogs, I figured that everything was worth checking. -- Mgreenbe ( talk) 20:57, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
