Considering he’s probably the hungriest character in Star Wars since the Sando Aqua Monster gobbled up everything that moved in the Naboo oceans, it’s fitting that Baby Yoda would make an appearance in one of the most popular of British dishes, bangers and mash. That’s what happened, and Jade Etherington was the one who spotted it.

The 29-year-old broke into pearls of laughter after noticing Baby Yoda stand on top of her plate as she was about to dig in.

She noticed its ears and made from Yorkshire puddings and sausage legs.

After taking a quick snap of her doppelganger dinner, factory worker Jade wolfed down the “delicious” meal chef partner David Etherington made despite admitting it was “almost” too cute to eat.

Jade, from Darlington, County Durham, said: “David had cooked a nice winter warmer of mash, gravy, two Yorkshire puddings and two sausages.

“He put my portion on the side in the kitchen and when I went over to get it I said ‘oh my god, it looks like it’s got little eyes, nose and feet’. It had a Yorkshire pudding head, ears and arms as well, the sausages are like the feet. For some reason when he put the gravy on top of the Yorkshire pudding it wilted and it looked like it had ears. Obviously he didn’t intend to make it look like that at all, it just happened. At first I thought it looked like Gizmo from Gremlins, but when I shared it online everyone else said it looked like Baby Yoda and now I can’t unsee it.”
