Mr. Punch traditionally craves sausages (as do all of his rivals) and steals them whenever he gets a chance. The strange sausage or "banger" described here (banger being an English sausage) seems to be in the shape of an aerial bomb or missile.

A running joke in some versions of the show is that Punch is unable to pronounce the word "sausages" and instead calls them swossages, squashages, etc. Sometimes he is half-aware of this disability and illogically tells the audience, "I can't say sausages, so I say swossages."
