Chips: Salt or Vinegar first

[danny la rouge]

My bad, I'm not down with the youth.

I put yo' boy on rock rock
And he be lining down the block
Just to watch what I got

 

[discokermit]

Never heard that one, is it regional?

i dunno. we say it round here but i couldnt tell you if they dont say it everywhere else.

 

[danny la rouge]

Don’t know what that means, izz. It’s part of a rap my daughter recites.

I'll have to put that through google translate, I bet it comes out as "Mayonnaise is a viable saucing option".

I like to apply them both at the same time. Like a person who makes cocktails but with a dash of showmanship, like Tom Cruise in that film where he makes cocktails... The Showy Barman?

Rock is obviously a reference to the fish and clearly, there's a line down the block of astonished onlookers, who've heard some fool is about to but brown sauce in his chips.....

Advanced skills, or cocky foolishness

"Coglan's Law - no brown sauce near chips"

i tell people that the name "klondike" for a potato scallop comes from the gold rush and the fact it looks like a big golden nugget.
i tell people this as if i know it for a fact but really i just made it up. makes me feel like i am making history.

less than four hours to chip day for me. yay!

I've had chips in Bath but never witnessed this particular atrocity

Bath is irredeemably posh so that isn't surprising - come up North and we'll teach you to eat chips proper.

Vinegar first, of course. It makes the salt stick better to the chips, rather than washing it off.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

I know, right. Can you imagine, next time you see a stranger picking up brown sauce in the a supermarket, you just won't know, if they are one of those people

I look at people who buy ketchup with nowt but pity, the poor misguided souls.

I like the fact that he's even making a cartoon villian face.

My only contact with ketchup is having to open it for my five year old.

He’s out to win chippy of the year or something. He’s trashtalking his rivals with a facial expression.

I don't remember anything about salt or vinegar in The Bedtime Routine, so

 

[sojourner]

Brown sauce goes with meat- sausages, cottage pie, haggis etc. Red sauce goes with chips, egg, pizza. The exception to this is bacon butties which get red.

Honestly you have to question how some folk were raised.

He's been veggie since he was 16. He's a Wiganer though, it's like their lifeblood or sommat.

He's not going to win anything, putting brown sauce on chips. I'd imagine his rivals looking on with mix of amusement and professional horror

I hope your child sees sense as they gets older.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Does anyone actually like ketchup?

Overly sweet shite that it is.

He's six in April. I reckon that's the cut off - time for an intervention if he hasn't seen sense

Me. I had it before, with my chips n egg.

Nope. Second only to mayo in its wretch-inducing qualities
