A woman in southern Sweden has been charged for attempted assault after attacking a man with a frying pan full of Swedish sausages.

The woman, who is in her fifties, reportedly threw the frying pan at the man during a heated spat at their home in Borås, southern Sweden.

She even threatened to kill the man, according to Sveriges Radio.

While the flying frying pan didn't hit the intended target, the man was hit with the force of the pan's contents - Swedish Falukorv and a good dose of grease.

The man was not injured by the Swedish sausage.

The woman has now been charged with attempted assault and making illegal threats, with the victim demanding compensation of 850 kronor ($130).

Falukorv is a traditional Swedish sausage, usually made with a mixture of grated pork, beef, or veal, together with potato starch flour and spices.

The sausage's name comes from the town of Falun in central Sweden, where the falukorv has history stretching back to the 16th century among workers at the local copper mine.

The sausage is a popular ingredient in many a Swedish dish, and is often served with potato, macaroni or beans.

The falukorv was even a central character in one of Sweden's cult pornographic films from the seventies, Fäbodjäntan (titled "Come and Blow the Horn" in the UK).

Assult sausage is linked to violent behavior claims VP Biden, limits on package size to be developed. Who needs 10 hot dogs in a package when there are only 8 buns in package anyway, asks Gov. Coumo.

Not as good as Christmas korv but still pretty good eating.

He probably asked for lutefisk and got the appropriate response

“COME AND BLOW THE HORN”? I take it that wasn’t a movie about a trumpet player.

Northwestern University has already bought next year’s total production.

The falukorv was even a central character in one of Sweden's cult pornographic films from the seventies, Fäbodjäntan (titled "Come and Blow the Horn" in the UK).

Thus validating the other interpretation of the title...

Few of us Swedes would claim Falukorv to be a delicacy,

Of course not. That would be Surströmming.

“A sâüsâge bit my sister ønce.”

A møøse sâüsâge? Mind you, those are very deadly and cause gas too.

[Eaker]

Now THAT is a big ass sausage!

[Mad Dawgg]

"Now THAT is a big ass sausage!"

Yes, it is!

And on a side note (With apologies to Mr. Barry) "Ass Sausage" is an excellent name for a punk rock band!

[ladyjane]

I wondered that myself. Why did she attack a man who had a Swedish sausage? Maybe it was a sweet-ish sausage and he didn’t want to share it?
