Name of place + foodstuff = good?

I'm going out later to find some "eye-sourced Newcastle sandwiches"

Greggs's ham & pease pudding stottie sarnies...

In the days of my youth, Gregg's stottie sarnies were *delicious*

Fnaar - I know - but my Eccles cakes (yum!) etc were in response to Arch's proposed 'food tour'.

And much appreciated. I may even progress to stage two of doing this - starting a proper list, on paper...

Oh yeah. Sorry, that was my brain-sourced Newcastle mistake

I like to support local companies and as I live in north Oxfordshire I'd be reasonably happy to eat nothing but Banbury cakes and only drink Hook Norton ales.

There's diet I could join you on! Not to mention Vintage Oxford Marmalade or Oxford Blue Cheese!

There are several outlets between Brighton and Shoreham where you can buy fresh caught local fish.
Bream, mackerel, occasional brill and turbot. I had local grey mullet a few weeks back - lovely,under-rated fish just because it feeds near the sewage outfall

Thanks rich, although I'm not sure you're really selling the grey mullet to me

There is a chap who comes from Shoreham to Chichester market once a week but always when I'm working.

You can get crabs from Selsey as well

How about M&S Lochmuir Smoked Salmon? Apparently, Lochmuir is a completely made up name to make it sound authentic. I would say it's false advertising.

British....?

err, no.

Welsh Rare Bit sounds a bit canibalistic.

Then of course you don't need cheeses to get that heart attack - by the time you've had clotted cream teas in Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Dorset and Gloucestershire, not to mention the real ice creams that go with that delicious breed of cream (Croyde Bay is best for those) you're going to need a triple bypass at least!

Or Lymeswold cheese?

No more false advertising that Aunt Bessie's Yorkshire puddings I guess.

Just looked it up to check it wasn't a real person and found this on Wikipedia. Hilarious!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aunt_Bessie

"Soon after this, Yorkshire Puddings made by Aunt Bessie became the newest most addictive drug in the streets, overtaking smack in popularity, and ultimately leading to the famous Yorkshire Turf-Wars between the established Smack dealers and Bessie herself."
