Hora, as usual, there's something both right and wrong about you.....

Look I go through a fair rate of brown sauce. If I realise I've run out on a weekend I'm beside myself and just can not eat the breakfast (literally) even if theres redsauce (ketchup man!) to hand.

However fish fingers, desire, nay cry out postively! for ketchup. Its criminal I tell you.

It's a BREADCAKE.

Go for chips in Sheffield (the chippy near the bus station used to be fabulous). Ask for a chip buttie and you'll get a breadcake.

Yes, other parts of the country (wrongly) call them bread buns or bread rolls, but in Sheffield it's a breadcake.

And a dollop of mushy peas on the chips is perfect ๐Ÿ™‚

Fishfinger butty = VINEGAR ... and don't even think of trying to mash the fishfingers ๐Ÿ˜‰

Bacon, Sausage butty = Tommy Ketchup

Egg Butty = brown sauce

Baked beans = Reggae Reggae sauce stirred in as they warm up ๐Ÿ™‚

chip butty - Tobasco

Portion of chips ( homemade ) = Tobasco

Tobasco = pretty much anything

Then it's a bread roll/bap

Bread rolls are smaller, you get them with soup (typically sold stale in motorway service stations for about the same price you'd get for selling a kidney)

I think to prevent this derailing further, a bread-related topic is required. I'll go create one now.

There is only one fish finger sandwich sauce and that's Salad Cream (with a slice of good cheddar).

Brown sauce and fish fingers... YUCK!

SALAD CREAM! With Fish Fingers!

That isn't just wrong. I need to write to the Oxford English Dictionary and ask them to create a new word for wrong. For when "wrong" is not strong enough to convey the wrongness.

The word will be Peath.

I thought red sauce was for kids? to make them eat stuff they "don't like".

You won't catch me ruining the delicious taste of a bacon sarnie with it.

Twice in two days I've had to stop the horror.

Fish finger sandwich; saucing in order of acceptability: tatare sauce, salad cream (Heinz) and mayo (Hellmans).

I also have extensive and authoritative views on the use and consumption of chilli and hot sauces the scope of which, I suggest, is outside the ambit of this thread.

Salad cream?!! Jesus! i think you'll find the clue in the title as to what that should be on. AND NOTHING ELSE!!! EVER!!!!

Good chedder shouldn't be on a fish finger butty either.

Its got to be crap plastic cheese singles - the ones that will be the only substance that remains after a nuclear strike

Binners - Cheese and Fish? Really?

Cheese isn't a sauce, so I won't judge on this thread, but surely it's like putting a shot of lime cordial into your bollinger?

See salad cream and fish fingers is a good idea... Not sure I approve of Heinz salad cream though... It's got to be the cheap stuff that's 90% vinegar... (but then I do love 'cheap cafe' ketchup...)

Nothing, sorry, NOWT cheap should give you anything other than a smug smile that you've saved a few pennies.

Dr S****. Don't knock it til you've tried it. Its an essential ingredient. Remember: cheapest, nastiest cheese singles you can find. The kind only an American would eat.

If the fish fingers are really hot it melts nicely over them. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I'm not sure if I could Binners. It sounds TOO wrong.

But then I had to be convinced that Marmite and Crunchy Peanut Butter work on toast (and they do).

I'll get drunk and try......

It may have been said already - I'm not about to trawl through four pages of sauce angst, but.....

If I have a bacon roll, I want it to taste of bacon.
If I have a steak, I want it to taste of steak. Etc, etc.

Sauces are plain wrong on anything. All of them.

mitch it's butter on the bread that houses the bacon. The bacon melts the butter, mmmmmm.

I'm actually with user-removed on the whole sauce issue. Hardly ever eat the stuff.
Nice bacon doesn't need it.
Nice sausages don't need it.
A good steak is deserving of a proper sauce that's been made with wine/brandy/cream/peppercorns and such like.

If you go to the chippy you should order gravy.

Guess I'm just posh ennit.

User-removed - if you have flour, do you want it to taste of flour? Or would you add eggs, sugar and fat to make cake?

If you had tomatoes, would you just want to eat tomatoes or would you roast them up with garlic and herbs to make a delicious pasta sauce?

The ingredients of a bacon sandwich are bread, butter, bacon and tomato ketchup. If you don't have ketchup then you haven't made a bacon sandwich properly.

I'm not directing this at anyone particularly other than my own prejudices, but whenever I hear "red sauce" my gut reaction is to think "ah, you're either prepubescent or intellectually challenged"(*)

I have the same reaction everytime I hear "bokkle" (as in 'milk bokkle') - my dad does this and it's a wonder I haven't stabbed him for it yet.

(* - only in slightly less politically correct terms)

I could be either.....

It's a northern thing. OK, so if you want tomato people usually ask for ketchup, but if you want, er, the other, you ask for Brown sauce.

So why is it right to call one by it's colour and one by it's form?

Because tomato ketchup is based on tomatoes, and brown sauce has a ton of other things in it making it hard to nominate a main ingredient.

Plus, and this is the really clever bit - tomato ketchup comes in bottles labelled "Tomato Ketchup" and brown sauce comes in bottles labelled "Brown Sauce".

A jar of HP hardly has Brown Sauce written in massive letters on the label. It is on there (I checked) but in tiny writing on the side).

Anyway - everyone who thinks Fish Fingers don't belong with Brown (HP) is STILL wrong.

Bacon and egg sarnie has red OR brown sauce. Both? Are you clinically insane. Nothing supports both except a burger. Which generally copes with a multiple sauce approach far better than the butty.

I repeat yesterdays assertion that fish finger butties must have red sauce and a cheese single. The cheese single must be of the lowest quality available. The sort that is labelled 'may contain cheese'

Not as insane as someone who puts fish together with cheese, no matter how fake that cheese is! ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

It's patently not. Some parts of the north known for ovine sodomy, perhaps.

So why is it right to call one by it's colour and one by it's form?

Good point. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm just off to get a glass of orange juice.

How can Worcester Sauce not be sauce? It's got sauce in the name!

And I keep it in the spices cupboard next to the salt, pepper and vinegar for putting out on the table to have on chips, cheese on toast, in beans, stews or whatever.

I think Mr Lee and Mr Perrins would take issue with your reclassification of their product not being sauce.
