In all seriousness, a pickled egg and Battered cod roe - the food of the gods :-)

PeonyBulb · 01/09/2025 17:52

Large cod and chips with lots of vinegar

Qashgal · 01/09/2025 17:52

A lovely large crispy potato fritter or two to dip in curry sauce.

And now I’ve ordered for me! Thanks OP!

Pickled egg for a treat.

The look of them in that dodgy jar is enough to put anyone off.

Make sure you've got plenty of vinegar and white pepper for your peas.

Battered sausage and chips and a pickled egg!

Vegan fish and chips - it's a thing , made from banana flower

I’d rather eat my own shite 🤮🤮

@Arlanymor we’ll have to agree to disagree on that one!

😆 I think I have a lifelong aversion from almost being force-fed them as a child. Anytime my dad was required to feed us it was always a trip to the chippy and I think he thought that making us eat them meant that he had made an effort to give us something with at least 1% nutritional value!

delayrepayagain · 01/09/2025 17:56

He’s called.

Battered sausage (just the one), chips, mushy peas with a can of FF coke on its way 😜

Just when I think I've seen all the awful things the internet has to offer. 😁

Large battered sausage, small cheesy chips, curry sauce and a can of coke. Will heat up my own can of mushy peas as refuse to pay £2.60 for them!
got the malt vinegar out ready to lash all over the chips.
enjoy yours!

TheChosenTwo · 01/09/2025 17:59

NO PICKLED ONION?!?! 😱😱😱

delayrepayagain · 01/09/2025 18:03

Well, this is a disaster…

He’s actually already been to the fish & chip shop (as I asked) and got fish & chips.

😭

DH and I share one portion of chips and "sausage three ways" (we get all the sniggers in the pub first): 1 plain sausage, 1 battered sausage and 1 saveloy. Cut them in half and share between the two of you. 😋

ruethewhirl · 01/09/2025 18:05

Damn, I was wondering what I wanted for tea and now I know 😂

bitterexwife · 01/09/2025 18:06

delayrepayagain · 01/09/2025 18:09

And DD has just unexpectedly arrived home asking what’s for dinner…

Leave all of them! Go to a hotel and order Deliveroo from the chippy
