Hardly believable until you go to a Jockland Chip Shop and realise there is absolutely nothing that they won't throw into the Fryer.

Barm? It's a ROLL and you know it.

Including Christmas dinner and Turkish Delight.

Presumably washed down with a bottle of Buckie or a can of Irn Bru for the teetotaller.

I thought I had seen it all during my Offshore Years, clearly not.

Do the Jocks have ongoing health problems with their middle-aged and elderly population I wonder?

The Avengers know it, too.

Taiwanese Stinky Tofu. Smells as good as it looks and tastes as good as it smells...…..

Japanese Natto. Who doesn't like soybeans served in phlegm?

They certainly have lower life expectancy than people in England & Wales. Particularly in Glasgow.

Life expectancy for a male in the UK these days is just over 79 years: in Glasgow it's 71.6.

Not all down to Mars Bars, I'm sure.

Not in WIGAN, it isn’t.

When we stayed in Edinburgh old town a couple of years ago.
We walked everyday down to M&S to get our food (unless we eat out), there were a lot of huffers and puffers about with fried things eminating from their Scottish gobs, all were on the large side.
Truly an amazing site

Ghana’s effort.



Named after the effects of its ingredients, I do believe.

I was in Rotherham for a course a couple of years ago and they offered us a "bread cake".

Cue bemused looks until they explained what they were on about.

"Oh, you mean a roll?".

Double-carb-alicious

Actually, wait, that's triple carb...…

No, hang on, quadruple carb....

It's enough to make you pop out of your McKenzie tracksuit

Hot chilli sauce with shrimp and fish sounds pretty banging. Probably need a rebrand if they want to conquer the globe though.

The vagueness of 'fish' really sells it to me.
