To wonder, lightheartedly, who is wrong here?

[muffinflop]

DH and I are having a slight disagreement. Do you eat egg, chips and beans or chips, beans and egg?? I'm excluding the sausage to attract the vegetarians to my debate!

Egg, chips and beans of course

Egg, chips and beans.

But then again, are we talking ketchup or brown sauce...?

Egg's, chip's and bean's... the other way just sounds wrong.

Sausage egg and chips.

egg and chips, with beans! (or peas in my case)

It has to be eggs,chips and beans....anything else is just nonsense.

sausage , egg, chips and beans

(I wonder why?)

:o this thread has made me smile

the first time I heard it as "chips and egg" was in the film Shirley Valentine, and it just sounds wrong...

The only time chips come first is when they are just with a sauce, ie Chips and Gravy, Chips and Curry...

The rest of the time it is xxxx and chips....

You dont hear of a Chip and Fish shop. do you

I'm so pleased to be right(so far!) and yes sausage, egg, chips and beans! Any other way is like saying dad and mum instead of mum and dad surely?

Chip, eggs and beans. With HP sauce.

There's no other way. It's just WRONG!

I've got my fingers crossed you argued it's egg, chips and beans OP.

Don't want no man being able to bring up his victory next time you argue

chips and egg

(beans are only present if sausage is)

if ham instead

ham, egg and chips.

Lol squeaky the 'chips and fish' was what started the debate. I accidently said chip and fish shop and corrected myself and DH didn't understand why!

X-post, phew

The main protein goes first, then any secondary one, then carb filler, then vegetable accompaniment.

totu only one chip?!

I wonder if chip, egg and beans is a Northern saying then. Maybe we need to know who is from where??

And no, you don't hear of a Chip and Fish Shop but you are no longer allowed to call a meat and potato pie a 'meat and potato' pie unless the pie contains more meat than potato.

So now, we have to ask for a potato and meat pie.

Correct LeBof

Egg and chips. Sometimes (veggie) sausage, egg and chips. Beans belong on toast or jacket potatoes.

I think chips and egg is a Liverpool thing - hence Shirley Valentine.

It might be a liverpudlian saying to put the chips first.. but I am from Lancashire and we say chips second!

And I still call it a meat and potato pie, and always will!

muffin, it must be an ooooop North thing. Around here we refer to chips in the singular when talking about chip, egg and beans.

There is more than one chip.

But the beans must be over the chips and not touch the egg, but that's a whole other debate altogether

It's egg and chips, beans are disgusting and have no place on the plate.
