Chippy chips are the single thing I miss most living away from the UK. This thread is making me hungry and also incredibly sad!

seems I have stumbled into the Asperger’s thread. 😕

It most definitely is a “chip roll” in Edinburgh and Mid/East lothian. Where the incident occurred.

FACT #1 – a buttered* roll in an Edinburgh/Lothians chippy has always cost moar than an non buttered roll.
FACT #2 – it is possible to specify your preference at point of sale.
FACT #3 – it’s never actually butter even when the sign says “Buttered roll”

Steven. I suggest you invite a responsible adult along next time so they can ask the chip shop staff before you make your purchase. Being a PVG’d registered carer and semi-professional chip shop customer I can help you here. Probably not if the plan is to drag me and my large red faced client round the shitey Pentlands with weirdos off here first tho. 😉

I thought moon face was the carer? If I took you two into the chippy there’d be nought left for me. Good to hear from you though.

have to have butter but if i cant be bothered then its still fine so long as the chips are doused in vinegar and ketchup

Let me get this straight, you lot eat potato sandwiches?

Deep fried potato, sandwiches!

As for the original question, well if you’re going to do it, you might as well go the whole hog.

Carb loading. Anyway it’s a welcome change to pie butties:

Butter or marg and it’s a Teacake you animals
Plenty of salt and vinegar too

Used to love a potato scallop butty from Crown St fisheries in Hebden

Unless you’re some kind of savage, the correct answers are;

Butter
Vinegar
Brown sauce
Butty

Course it has butter on it, clue’s in the name.

Had a balti pie sarnie for lunch the other day, it was amazing. Didn’t have butter on, bit didn’t really need it IMO.

Surely if ooop north you get it with pork dripping?

Butter in a chippy is always catering margarine isn’t it? I’ve never seen a salted/unsalted butter option in a chippy before. Are some talking about home produced Chip rolls? that sort of misses the point – you cant replicate scraps at home, can you?

Yeah, course it is – what with it being so synonymous with tea and a cake… oh wait.

It’s a Bap, Mun!

Don’t be daft. The chips will be cooked in lard or beef dripping though.

No butter, on any sandwich ever. For chip sandwich then chilli sauce.

Tea cake? Brown sauce?

There are some sickos in this world

A teacake, not a fruit teacake. I’m not a derranged sociopath like IHN,
Brown Sauce in a chip butty??!? You sir are an animal

No butter, on any sandwich ever

Burn the witch.

The definitive word from Weegieland, the spiritual home of the chip shop …

A roll an’ chips wi’ a fritter oan it. Buttered roll. Broon Sauce.

Carb loading. Anyway it’s a welcome change to pie butties:

Ah, the Wigan Kebab.

Butter and plenty of salt and vinegar

Teacake? A cake with your tea?
Barm you bloody furriner
