They're like meatballs a bit.
The Doody family. Doesn't 'doody mean something dodgy in Yank slang?
Hmmm,
They are meatballs, generally served in a rich brown onion gravy (sauce)
I remember having to snail mail the outer wrapper of a packet to an American colleague, it was a source of great amusement in her office :D
We also have "fags" and "fag ends" which are cigarettes and cigarette butts, respectively.
And there is the expression "I can't be fagged" which means "I can't be bothered ( to do something)"
"Fag" also means a menial or servant and that probably gives rise to our expression "fagged out" which means "tired out"
:)

Side note, to call someone in England a "handbag" would be similar to calling an American a "faggot" :D
