"What, I have to wrap this bacon right round this little sausage?"
But M&S pigs in blankets are not just any old pigs in blankets

Yes. We can all make our own pigs in blankets, but it far easier to just get them ready rolled.
I bet it’s poorly paid and boring just rolling thousands of them all day. I suspect this year people will be rolling their own.

its labour intensive, we have a labour shortage. It may not be complex in taste or ingredients, but its not machine produced.

Oh. Em. GEE!Roll the little sausages in cranberry jelly before wrapping with streaky bacon....
True haute cuisine, that is!!
Don't know about anyone else but I can hardly wait.

It's the lack of sausages and bacon that worries me. Particularly the bacon.

I imagine that cocktail sausages are manufactured to pretty tight dimensional tolerances. Streaky bacon might present a bit of a handling problem but one that a second year robotics manufacturing undergraduate could get around with clever a pick-and-place machine. The entire pigs in blankets production line could be fully automated. Absolutely no need for Cuban lovelies to roll them on their thighs like Havana cigars.
Edit: Bingo!
