I'm with my wee chum here - I'm only an adopted Northerner, but the entire concept of gravy on chips is just plain wrong

Theres no such thing as an adopted Northerner. Theres Northerners down South (me). Theres Southerners up North (you). But never the twain etc
Its a combination of flavours, the sum being better than the two halfs.
Come on, you are reminding me of that no mark from wrong side o big hills.
Garlic Bread?

Re: Chips and Gravy
See what you have started Chris... you should just accept that chips and gravy is yummy and very normal.

Re: Chips and Gravy
I'm with Gaz, gravy on your chips makes them soggy. The gravy is normally naff anyway.
Gravy is not normally that nice when its not combined with beef anyways...

So, picking up from another concurrent thread. Should an option be added regarding chips and Pot Noodle?
Welsh Food?

Slight problem - I'm from the Midlands, so I'm not a Southener or a Northerner
And as for Garlic Bread? Just pizza without the cheese

Re: Chips and Gravy
The southerners have a nasty dish called...............pie,mash and liquor (forgive the spelling if it's wrong lol) a green substance made from parsley I think, and they drown it in vinegar.
