Fish and chips... mmmm... with vinegar... .

Do I recall correctly? Is the mascot's name "Chippy Chipperson"? :wah:

Come on England, you can do better than that!

Perhaps we could rename this thread Censorchip in honour of the guy with the beating heart avatar, pantsman is it?

Mushy peas are fab and only taste good from the Chippy. Don't try to make your own at home, they won't taste the same. :wah:

store here in the states called Cost Plus. Love to look around that place.

(Plus they have a cava for $6 the bottle!!:D )



Anyway, I found CANNED mushy peas!! It was so funny, the first time I

heard of them was on this site and there they were. Didn't buy any,

though, figured they couldn't really be any good being canned and all!!



;)

A Kiwi Rugby player dropped dead on the playing field. An autopsy revealed that he had OD'd on CHIPS.

My mums mushy peas would put any chippies to shame, she uses dried marrofat peas soaked overnight in bicarbonate of soda ( to break the peas down ).

Thanks for the recipe. When the mushy pea craze strikes America we'll blame it all on your mom.

Well when it does strike, stock up on the Alka-Seltzer cos the affect is worse than baked beans....... :yh_giggle

you can buy canned mushy peas over here, but they just don't have the same taste as from the chip shop. It must be all the grease floating in the air that gives them a unique taste (either that or its just physcological!!) :p

Wouldn't the canned peas be like talking about how the canned tomatoes taste like just fresh off the vine tomatoes would?

The only question about the gasses is are they the strong silent type or the loud non-toxic blare(s)?

Definitely bean type orchestrals.

Now the Skinny Mi Links will try to stop us enjoying our Chips.

I like my chips lightly salted with lots of pickled onion vinegar-yum yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Curry and chips eaton from a polystyrene carton eaten with your fingers. Yummmy. Not had that for a few years.

KFC was not the first to say 'FINGER LICKING GOOD'. It was a fish & chip in Leyton East London UK;)

OMFG firstly I apologize, I haven't read the posts just the original so clicked on the link. What on earth possessed some fool to start a forum based on chips? LMFAO what a load of crap. It did make me laugh though!

Wow this sure is an old thread. Ah the joy of the chip. You know we seem to have a million fish and chip shops near us, not sure why but it seems like it's the only kind of take-away that u can get around here.

Chinese and Thai are the best. I just joined last night and found this thread really funny:wah:

What, there is actually a thread about chips? Come on, I know people can get stuck for conversation and all that but 3 pages on chips? Whats wrong with cheese? I don't see anyone extolling the virtues of cheddar, maybe thats my cue! :-2

Ooh now don't get me started on the joys of cheese, I could go on for ages.



Funny though isn't it the kinds of things that can heat up a discussion around here!! :wah:

From my time spent in England I made the following observations.

British Beer, Bad.

British Water. Not enough of it, but OK.

British Bread, No.

English Cheese, Very Nice, well the proper stuff, not the EU intervention cheese in tesco..

British Rashers, Also very nice.

British Kebabs, a superior Kebab, there was one in Colchester, excellent my good man, excellent.

British Chipers, fine, except for those mad things in jars they do have like pickled eggs and such like (what is that all about?).

I will say though, I went to college in England, and the SU food was so apolcalyptically bad, it really was inedible, unless you were drunk or dead, which was a common occurence in college anyway so I suppose its alright.

I like chips (chunky ones) with salt, vinegal, garlic sauce topped with cheese - YUMMY:-4

I just had Rock and Chips with Tartare Sauce, scrummy

I went into my local chippy and asked for fish and chips twice

The girl behind the counter said "I heard you the first time"

:wah:

This week in the local chippy, the chips ran out after serving the guy in front of me, so I was at the front of the queue while some more were cooking. Eventually I was served and the girl said "Sorry about the wait"

I said " That's ok, I don't mind how heavy they are"

I love tomato sauce too, apart from the taste :rolleyes:
