AIBU to find this weird ? 'Single mum munch box'

[sparklefarts]

So if you're in Scotland you will know what a munchy box is. Basically it's a pizza box from the chippy, Indian or Chinese filled with a variety of stuff. DH is out tonight, im throwing a mild strop about food we have in the house and so I was browsing the local Just Eat to see what I might order. One oif the local chippy/Indians do a 'Single Mum Munchy Box'
Why do they think this is specifically for single mums? The chocolate?
It's a bit bat shit right?

Have added a screen shot !

As a Scottish single mum I’m really offended......that it doesn’t come with wine

I was expecting there to be chips, mushy peas, a can of Diet Coke and a dildo

I'd be too stuffed after that Munchy Box for any fun time with a dildo

Are all single Mum’s behemoths? How can any single person eat that much food?

Aside from the fact that a single MUM, by definition, suggests that there are at least two people (and quite likely more) who will be eating, does nobody else ever over-order when having a takeaway as a treat, with the expectation of keeping some to shove in the microwave for the next day as an easy bonus no-effort meal?

I like you @sparklefarts .

And you, @BruceAndNosh .

They can call it what they like surely for a tenner this is the best culinary dining experience around!???

Fish and chips here £8.95 can of coke £1.50.

@Shockers why thank you 😁 whoever knew my over eating would lead to new pals

After seeing the picture, I want one. Veggie though as I don't eat meat.

I paid £19 for haddock chips and peas for two the other day! It was nice though.

What is a pizza crunch?

@Graphista
You forgot deep fried mars bars!
And that tattie scone should surely be fried and served in a hot roll - bacon or veggie haggis, depending on your preference?!
Salt ‘n sauce on your chips if you’re an Edinburgher
Tunnocks - caramel wafers all the way!

@YesQueen what are the pink and blue dips in the top right hand corner?

I’m vegan so there’s no vegan munch box as yet! DH and DD1 will get one maybe twice a year it’s got everything it in, pakora, pizza, kebab meat, naan, chips, chicken tikka I don’t know what else. Never saw the Death by cheese munchy box.

A deep fried pizza is lovely btw loads of salt and vinegar and they used to plonk it face down on your chips so you’d have chips as a topping too.

Thanks for the tea inspo

I’m ready to move to Scotland.

(DH won’t agree to follow me, if there are questions about my eligibility for this glorious thing.)

Makes sense to me - it's a meal for somebody with a couple of kids who will want a couple of bits of several things, but not a whole meal of anything. Much cheaper than dealing with a kid that wants pizza, one wants mozzarella sticks, the baby might mush a fish finger up and she'd love a kebab.

That sounds like a horrible meal to serve or eat, regardless of what it's called.

Gaviscon - I'm a weegie so salt and vinegar not sauce thanks.

Yes - I've not managed to have a deep fried mars bar yet (not for lack of trying! Just nowhere near me does em)

We DO though have a great place that does fry ups and hot rolls (that'll confuse the non scots), my personal favourite is 2 fried eggs, tattie scone and brown sauce in a buttered morning roll, plus other "breakfast" stuff like pancakes & waffles, and ice cream milkshakes (also ice cream sodas including one with tablet ice cream and irn bru) - unsurprisingly they do their best business weekend mornings perfect hangover food.

A single mum munchy box is not intended to be all for just one woman to eat.

It means a family size box minus the "penis portion" large quantity which you would obviously need if one of the family members was a MAN who needs FEEDING LOTS.

The food is plenty for a single mum plus two or three kids though.

Enough to feed one adult and a couple of small children.

Like a family box but smaller.

@ranibowsprimkle is that pizza crunch?

I've been in Scotland for over a decade and I've never even seen a pizza crunch let alone eat one. Do I need to leave?

Sounds a good deal, so it would not make me cross (simple person)

2L of ironbru though
