What do you call bread?

[Oohgossip]

When used as a filling holder?!

I’m in the west mids and my colleagues (from the north west and east mids) wet themselves every time I order a sandwich for lunch and call it a bap, as in ‘I’m having bacon baps!’

Everyone I know round here calls them baps...

*Teacake.

The ones with fruit in are fruit teacakes.

Easy, and logical*

But they have nothing to do with cake, and nothing to do with tea... not convinced by your logic

Anyone mentioned a baton ????

Bacon between sliced bread = bacon sandwich
Bacon between two round bits of bread = bacon bap
Chips between any form of bread, chip butty

Bla and softie are my new faves ha!

Originally from Lancashire, It's a teacake or bap.
H from Greater London says it's a roll, but he's wrong.

Rolls, baps, or cobs.

Sliced bread is just bread.

Be careful @CupOhTea, I made almost the same remark and had to report the twat who told me to “piss off” and “start my own thread if I’m so fuc@king interesting”

But they have nothing to do with cake, and nothing to do with tea... not convinced by your logic

That depends, if you have them at tea time (AKA dinnertime in some places) then they are tea cakes or toasted tea cakes with fruit in. I'll admit though, I've no idea what they have to do with cake

Well if you're going to be like that, then Tunnock's teacakes have nothing to do with tea or cake either...

Teacakes
Afternoon tea instead of a scone jam first unless you are very stupid
Its because you have them with a cup of tea !

Well if you're going to be like that, then Tunnock's teacakes have nothing to do with tea or cake either

Yeah, totally agree with you. But this is about bread

Have a lovey Yorkshire friend who calls it a ‘bread cake’, which I just love

That's what we called in west of the Pennines, in Yorkshire it was called a teacake which really confused me as I think that's sweeter with fruit in!

Roll or Sandwich

They're called pieces here too, cakes too are called fancy pieces or fine pieces

Ye canna fling pieces oot a 20 storey flat
Several hundred hungry weans will testify to that
If it's butter, cheese or jeely,
If the breid is plain or pan
The odds against it reachin earth are ninety nine to wan

My mother used to call cakes/biscuits ‘dainties’ ‘do you fancy a wee daintie with your tea?’

If slices of bread then sandwich or butty

Sandwich
Roll
Packed lunch
Breakfast
Lunch
Dinner

Sandwich.
A bap is a roll.

2 slices of bread, a bap, bread bun, bread cake, barm or whatever you want to call and a baguette are all a sandwich with things like cheese or ham inside them. 2 slices of bread or some form of bread bun with chips or bacon in is a butty and something with sausages in goes back to being a sandwich oh and a wrap is just a bloody wrap

I call a soft roll a bap and a crusty one a cob, however that's only because i live in the East Midlands and that's what everyone else uses. Originally from Yorkshire(Rotherham) and Breadcake is the default setting! Many a heated discussion has occurred at work regarding the naming of foodstuffs😆 I referred to cupcake as a bun the other week and was met with a raft of blank stares,and the ice pop/ice pole debate is ever raging. Although I think I may be a bit obsessed with it! FWIW I am Ice pop all the way !

I'm sure at my ex's (Leeds area) there was something called an oven bottom muffin (to go along with the barms and stotties)

Sliced bread with filling is a sandwich, anything else regardless of crustiness is a breadcake for me in Sheffield

Two slices of bread make a sandwich
A round bread thingy is a roll
A teacake has currants in.

It’s a breadcake.

I also had people look at me strangely the first time I said that outside of Yorkshire, but as far as I’m concerned, they are the ones in the wrong. It’s a breadcake.

@Seashell80 what the heck’s an ice pole?! Haha
