Flap Sticks are almost like battered sausages, although different ratio in the batter.
Say, DaButt. Stupid question, but have you had a battered sausage before? Do you get beer batter over there? I bet you'd/do love it.

I've never had a battered sausage, but I'm sure I'd love it.
Sausages aren't as big a part of the American diet as they are of the British. I envy your choices of sausage and wish I could walk down the street past shops with all sorts of fresh sausages in the window.
We actually have a decent selection of sausages, but typically we only eat it as a breakfast food or pizza topping. I know hot dogs are stereotypical American fare, but adults don't eat them all that often unless they're at a sporting event. They're typically used as a means of getting small kids to eat meat.
That said, I can never pass up the opportunity to have a dog at Pink's when I'm in Los Angeles.

I'm partial to the America the Beautiful Dog: 12" Jalapeno Dog, pastrami, bacon, lettuce, & chopped tomatoes. 
Yeah, we have beer batter. It's typically used when frying shrimp or fish.

On a recent shopping trip, we heard this morbidly obese couple chatting about their grocery shopping. As the wife rolled away on her motorized cart, her husband (on his own motorized cart) yelled out, "How are we for corndogs?!?"
This evidently means that they are never out of corndogs and are in a state of constant replenishment. eew.
They're just getting the basics; Bread, milk, eggs and corndogs.

I'd like to see you try to wrap a sausage around a pancake!
...Wait. >_<

And they contain crap 'meat' and are a huge choking hazard to small kids!

Meat is meat and every parent I know cuts up the hot dogs for choking-age children.

True. And unlike KFC, they don't even have the taste factor to fall back on. How did they get the humble sausage so very wrong?
We will soon see people in car parks corndogging. Someone brings the sausage the other the batter...

Or Hampstead Heath, but it's not got that many roads...
I can answer your question Aaron. My little kids love chicken and pork as long as it looks like store bought chicken nuggets. They are both kind of fussy, but by dressing it up to look like something else, I can usually get them to eat almost anything. My oldest isn't fussy at all.
My kids don't eat convenience food at all, which is what most American kids seem to eat.
