United Kingdom
In the UK, sausage sandwiches (Sausage sarnie or butty in UK (English) slang, or 'Piece 'n' Sausage' in UK (Scottish) slang) can typically be found in greasy spoons (workers' cafés) and many roadside food stalls. They are also made at home, as a classic post-hangover pick-me-up.

It is typically served between two pieces of white bread with red sauce, brown sauce or no sauce at all (see steak sauce, HP sauce). Popular combinations are sausage and bacon, sausage and egg, sausage and fried onions and sausage and tomato.
Sausages served in a bread roll or hot dog bun in the UK, especially at barbecues are usually known as hot dogs.
In Scotland, a lorne sausage may be substituted and is usually served in a morning roll or bap.

Famous quotes containing the words united and/or kingdom:
“The parallel between antifeminism and race prejudice is striking. The same underlying motives appear to be at work, namely fear, jealousy, feelings of insecurity, fear of economic competition, guilt feelings, and the like. Many of the leaders of the feminist movement in the nineteenth-century United States clearly understood the similarity of the motives at work in antifeminism and race discrimination and associated themselves with the anti slavery movement.”
—Ashley Montagu (b. 1905)
“A box of teak, a box of sandalwood,
A brass-ringed spyglass in a case,
A coin, leaf-thin with many polishings,
Last kingdom of a gold forgotten face,
These lie about the room....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
