Devon (sausage)
Devon is a type of manufactured meat product sold in Australia and New Zealand.

It is also referred to as "Windsor sausage" in Queensland. Devon would be classed as "luncheon meat" in the UK.

Though similar in usage and appearance, South Australians maintain that devon is not in fact related to the South Australian "Bung Fritz", which is manufactured using a process and recipe entirely un ...
