BUT links are not American!.!.!. but we do have "little pig sausages" as a breakfast treat that are prepared in small 2 inch links,
the whole concept is from the Old World!.!.
America is only (!?) 600 years old !.the USA = 1776

I think it is the word "links" in reference to sausages that is American!. Sausages, whether linked together or separated, are most likely German in origin!.

Links, bangers, or whatever!. Every country has their own unique name for virtually the same foods!! : PWww@FoodAQ@Com

Sausage links are generally breakfast sausages, they are long sausages with the casing twisted every so often in lengths where they can be cut and seperated when cooking!. Even many unlinked varieties are sometimes referred to as links!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sausage links usually refer to breakfast sausage which is about 3-4 inches long and 1 inch wide!. I don't know if that is what you have in the UK!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
