    I was involuntarily listening to two old ladies talking loudly to each other the other day. One, to the astonishment of the other, said she had never had a chip butty.

    Being a true man of the world, I have had many chip butties in my time.

    FYI, if needed, a chip butty is chips (ie french fries, NOT crisps) sandwiched between bread slices or in a bap/bun. Arguably it should be buttered, but we will ignore that for the purposes of the following poll:

    Q. HAVE YOU EVER EATEN A CHIP BUTTY?

      @Nickiquote answered no/UK as I've lived in the UK for 20 years... but now wonder if that should have been no/RoW as maybe this is a thing people do as children rather than adults. Do you eat such a thing as an adult?

      I've heard of the concept of course, not sure if I have ever seen anyone do it.

        Canada has poutine.

        Someone needs to merge these two healthy food choices.

          @Nickiquote Kind of. I had street food on Paris that was half chips and half omelette in a nice baguette.

            @Nickiquote I've never had a chip butty, though they are popular with one of the larger local immigrant communities.

              @Nickiquote I did give a 70 year old English man his first chip butty recently. I was shocked.

                        I've never heard of a chip buddy but I'm going to count something I've made at a barbeque trying to have normal looking food as a vegan. I think the bun is pretty close to white bread..

                          Non-UK folks may see references to names for bread that may need explaining. There are many local / regional names for a bead roll and many styles too, these can include, but are not limited to: rolls, buns, baps, barms, barm cakes, cobs, batch and stotties. Any can be used for a chip butty. Anything from two slices of mass produced white sliced loaf, fancy artisan sourdough, soft flour dusted bap or crusty bread roll. Chips, between two bits of buttered bread equals a chip butty.

                              @jaybird110127 @Nickiquote @TheZooLady *does* do something similar with crisps, though usually it's crisps and something else.

                                @Nickiquote Chip butties are usually bought in Fish and Chips shops or "greasy spoon" cafés the latter offering embellishments like tomato sauce, brown sauce, perhaps English mustard or a fried egg. There is also the chip pitta, chips in a pitta bread often available from your local kebab shop.

                                    @ambientspace @Nickiquote That does sound tasty, but is much more high-brow than a chip barm. Cheap white bread (sliced or roll/barm), chips, salt and vinegar, sauce if you're nasty. For a bit of extra crunch you can get scraps on there too - the little bits of batter that have fallen to the bottom of the heated display unit in the chippy.

                                    @bigvimto as an americanist (sorry) can I assume the 'nasty' sauce is HP or a clone?

                                      I was involuntarily listening to two old ladies talking loudly to each other the other day. One, to the astonishment of the other, said she had never had a chip butty.

                                      Being a true man of the world, I have had many chip butties in my time.

                                      FYI, if needed, a chip butty is chips (ie french fries, NOT crisps) sandwiched between bread slices or in a bap/bun. Arguably it should be buttered, but we will ignore that for the purposes of the following poll:

                                      @Nickiquote butter, mayonnaise and lots of vinegar.

                                        @Nickiquote I've heard that it's supposed to be a single slice of buttered bread, folded over the chips

                                        @sjjh @Nickiquote Not always, but it's a great way to stop the chips from falling out.

                                          No, but I like a crisp sandwich.
