Muffin or Barm

[Yates]

I thought bread products were cooked at temperatures higher than 48°C.

AW ye, they aren't raw, I don't eat them, I meant I'll accept any of the terms used. My body doesn't take too well to doughy stuff.

 

[Cellarite]

The Maine Road chippy, the closest independent food outlet to the stadium calls them barms.

Of course they would. That's what they are.

Like I've said many times its barm. Its a northern term so southerners don't understand it.

whatever you OOT barmy gets come up with it's a MUFFIN

I

whatever you OOT barmy gets come up with it's a MUFFIN

I think you'll find your wrong

 

[Yaya_Tony]

It's a fucking barm you southern nonces. Muffins are small cakes or from macdonalds. Barms have bacon and eggs in. It's a fucking barm no question about it.

 

[urban genie]

I remember the song so well

Do [or "Oh, do"] you know the barm man,
The barm man, the barm man,
Do you know the barm man,
Who lives in Drury Lane?

Yes [or "Oh, yes"], I know the barm man,
The barm man, the barm man,
Yes, I know the barm man,
Who lives in Drury Lane


Hang on that ain't right, because it's a MUFFIN not a bloody barm Lancastrian and proud of the oven bottom

Chip Barm or if you're a sheep shagger its Chip Muffin

chip muffin if your from gorton, chip barm if you are also from gorton, I actually interchange between the 2 and use both but if I go to the shop the only one you can buy are Oven bottoms so Muffin wins out

 

[Metalartin]

I think it depends on what the shops you went to as a lad, called them. For instance if I were to ask for a breakfast treat consisting of bacon sandwiched between two bits of some sort of bread... it would always be Bacon BUTTY for me. As for Chippies the correct answer is Chip MUFFIN.

The only place I saw Barm was at the local gregs/smiths etc

So in closing the correct answer is... muffin?

 

[mancityvstoke]

Muffin is the only answer

stood in the queue at tony's chippy on Tuesday night behind a family from yorkshire discussing having chips on a fucking breadcake for crying out loud!

I had to step in at that point to point out it was a chip barm (as on the board) or a chip muffin (usual shit about cakes at that point, so went into the Lancashire Oven Bottom Muffin spiel)

should have asked why they don't support Leeds and to fuck off back

 

[Yaya_Tony]

You are all dicks. Bacon barm. Chocolate chip muffin. Sausage and egg mcmuffin. Belly busting barm. It's not a muffin. It's a fucking barmcake I don't give a fuck what khaldoon says.

 

[mancityvstoke]

Schoolboy error

I did (though not so eloquently as you suggest) something about being at Uni in Manchester or similar... (wasn't really listening by this time as the Manc "Next please!" had come over from the other side of the counter by then)

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

I'll never eat a barm as long as I draw breath. I'll stuff my face with a bacon muffin all the live long day!

 

[DiscoSteve]

try google image search for bacon muffin - you'll draw a blank...
on the other hand...

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

It's a roll unless it contains sausage, in which case it's a bap.
