Muffin or Barm

[remember arthur mann]

Was it.....
Martha and the Muffins
or
Martha and the Barms


Muffin is only a potty yank terminology for cakes.

Well said Arthur. I can only imagine Martha having a hairy muffin, not a hairy barm; )

The Bayern humiliation of Barcelona proves without doubt that it is a barm.

Hansi Flick said in his post match press conference that the players had overheard Frankie de Jong talking about a sausage muffin he’d had yesterday morning at the team hotel in the warm up.

Flick said that de Jong had basically written his team talk for him and his players were desperate to teach Barca a lesson.

He went on to say that he can’t wait to get home on Thursday to enjoy a bratwurst barm.

I’m not sure why there is an argument. A muffin is a cake whereas a barm cake is bread. Oh....

 

[mancityvstoke]

A muffin is a cake?

Schoolboy error

How does this thread get so long!?

You have Eggs Benedict on a muffin.

You have chips on a barm (cake).

Many moons ago I used to work at Warburtons in Bolton. I've been inside packing, in the oven sections, slicing machines and delivered bread all over the Northwest. I'm qualified to comment from both sides of the street. There are 3 types that count.
BARM CAKE as used in chippys
OVEN BOTTOM great for bacon butties
FLOUR CAKE similar to a barm but with a dusting of flour. ( More of a local baker product)
Everything else doesn't count, rolls, cobs, muffins, Baps are variations on the main 3, fighting for mid table places. When Lionel comes I will offer to educate him but to be honest he can call them what the fuck he wants and I won't mind

Barm cakes are traditionally named from the original use of 'barm' - the foam from beer - in its production but that is highly unlikely to be the case today. Most products sold as barms are actually rolls or buns and have a crust that does not suit the making of a chip butty as much as an oven bottom MUFFIN (as in the picture above) with its soft top and bottom layers and generally larger diameter.
