Otto Dem Wanz 1,390 Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Are they anything like these old school treats? Ā Ā Please let me know if they are, if so, I'll be off to buy about 20 packs of nostalgia. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuperBacon 8,385 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Those things were amazing, but I had no idea that's what they were called. My eldest came back from a party the other day with a bag of Rainbow Drops in her party bag. They got confiscated. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Carbomb 5,864 Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Ā Ā Ā Ā Excellent range of Milka products too.Ooh, I wasn't aware of this, this is important info. Milka chocolate is the best.Aye, a whole range of chocolate you never knew existed and other things like biscuits too. The biscuits are like giant versions of the Cadburys Animal biscuits but only much nicer because they're big and Milka. I got some Milka biscuits from Poundstretcher last year that were sort of like mini chocolate digestives. Very nice to snack on with a cuppa.Another one for Milka here. My favourite big bars are the ones with Daim/Dime pieces, the chocolate pudding one, and the straight-up milk chocolate.Ā EDIT: Also, if you're feeling heart-attacky, they do those huge ones the size of a keyboard in Oreo n' cream, and triple choc (Triolade, they call it).

Keith Houchen 18,327 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 A deep fried battered potato thing isn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Devon Malcolm 14,521 Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah. You can get them in most of the chippies up here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators PowerButchi 7,890 Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah. Like a big disc of chip in batter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_Danger 3,560 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah. A big round chip in batter. Can be had on a buttered floury bap for the bargain sum of 65p! Saturated with vinegar and dusted with salt naturally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Lorne Malvo 1,749 Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 I dread to think how many years I took of my life, having a double-scallop sandwich for dinner every day I was at high school. Bloody lovely mixture of batter, butter, salt and vinegar.Ā Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Nick Soapdish 107 Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 we don't get those down south. We do have a few chippies that do a southern fired roast potato like thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands 3,802 Posted January 25, 2017 Paid Members Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) Round here they also do the Scallop with a couple of cheese slices inside. So a big round chip, dipped in batter with scalding hot cheese oozing out of the middle. Ā That also takes me back to when I was a kid. We used to get a square of "Plastic" ham, put a square of "Plastic" cheese on top of it, roll it into a tube, dip it in batter, and deep fry it until it was golden. Eaten with salad in a forlorn hope of balancing out the sheer heart attackyness of the ham and cheese fritter. Also we used to haveĀ a lot of corned beef fritters, we'd probably call it tempura now because we have stumbled into a middle class cul-de-sac from our working class roots. I wouldn't have used the words "Cul-de-sac" back then either. Edited January 25, 2017 by Lion_of_the_Midlands Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Keith Houchen 18,327 Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 For future reference, they are called scallop batches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Moderators PowerButchi 7,890 Posted January 25, 2017 Author Moderators Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Can we all agree, like everything else in the south, that their chippies are dump. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
