The Great British Bread Debate.

What do you call yours?

I'm a Bolton lad born and bred, so it's always a barm for me, and preferably with bacon, butter and brown sauce

It's a roll, end of.
Close the thread now.

It's a roll, unless it's crusty, in which case it's a crusty cob, unless of course you buy more than one and they are still stuck together in which case it's a batch.

Anyway, what you have illustrated aren't proper bread products - they're Chorleywood Process monstrosities.

Bread Roll

It's just a bread roll to me

That is just a picture of a bread roll... whoever made that poster hasn't the foggiest about what makes regional bread special, you can't label something if you haven't got the right picture to go with it... and as for the Stotty being from Yorkshire! 1/16 for the bread roll.

In some areas of Cornwall they are known as "Splits" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[marknotgeorge]

I'm firmly in the East Midlands cob zone...

 

[Supersuperleeds]

Bread cake, always has been, always will be.

Sorry smokey.... didn't see this, not that it changes anything!

 

[surfdude]

Splits for me .

I'm from the bun region of South Yorkshire but now live in the cob area and work in the batch department. I used to live with North East stotties.

It could be that Middlesbrough also have stotties but deffo Newcastle, Sunderland and Durham.

Barms, you should've heard the response I got from the Fred Elliott look and soundalike in a Bradford chippy when I once asked for a chip barm.

His blood pressure might just be settling down now.

Fred Elliott.... the made-up Lancastrian, was he supposed to be from Yorkshire?
