Cooking instructions tell the proud owner to cook their faggots in a pre-heated oven, blah blah blah for approx. 45 minutes, stirring the sauce and separating the faggots with a fork part way through cooking. Or for microwaves, you need to "Transfer faggots into a similar sized microwaveable dish". It also lists a "Faggots recipe" for 'Faggot Kebabs' - "Why not try out an exciting new meal-time idea using your Faggots to make this delicious recipe".
Oh god, this single piece of cardboard is possibly the funniest thing in existence.

It's no wonder 100 million faggots are eaten in the UK every year!
"There is at least as much need to curb the cruel greed and arrogance of part of the world of capital, to curb the cruel greed and violence of part of the world of labor, as to check a cruel and unhealthy militarism in international relationships." -Theodore Roosevelt
Faggots are indeed meatballs, round Blighty way.
They're also small bundles of wood for burning, which is probably where the cigarette slang comes from (they're referred to as fags, never faggots, and frankly given the imported conotations we're slowly learning to use other slang terms
)
Add that to the fact that "bum" in the UK can be used to mean arse, as well as to scrounge (and never to refer to the homeless), it's quite possible to overhear asking someone to "bum a fag". We had a single american at my sixth-form school (ages 16-17) and he got in all sorts of problems when he went back home due to the slang habits he'd picked up
Hilarity ensues. . .
