Interesting. The US version is 1) fried, and 2) dipped in a cornbread batter instead of wrapped in a yeasted dough. Haven't seen these other versions before

edit: brain fart on what things are called

That sounds more like what I would call a "corndog". I always grew up with a pig in a blanket being a sausage wrapped in puff pastry or a soft roll.

...what US are you from? It's always been crescent rolls or, much more rarely, biscuit dough.

Is a crescent roll a croissant?

Pretty similar but the usual American crescent roll is less fluffy and airy than a proper French croissant.
