    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 Not for a while though: a situation that needs to be addressed.

        @Nickiquote so a potato sandwich? Even with butter that seems very starchy.

                However, in the absence of a chip buttie, a crisp sandwich will get you through.

                  I have, late at night and very intoxicated at a Burger King, carefully stacked the entire bag of fries inside my hamburger before eating it. So it was fries between buns. Does that count?

                    @worldwidewerner If there hadn’t been a burger patty in there, yes. What you had was arguably still primarily a burger, but I will leave it to your conscience to decide.

                      @nixanadoo The thing to remember here is this is basically poverty food. It is a filling lunch a child can buy with their change. It is typically cheaper than just a single portion of chips.

                        @Nickiquote I picked no-UK because I am half English. And I certainly would’ve had the opportunity when I lived in the UK for a few years, but I actually never did.

                              Would recommend, but it's possible that a lot of that is nostalgia

                                  @Nickiquote I had trouble believing they were a thing. Then one day I saw them on a pub menu (down south, this was, not oop t'north where such things were rumoured to exist).

                                  Me, wanting to find out whether this was a genuine menu item or a joke: "Do you really sell chip butties?"

                                  Barmaid: "Sorry luv, last orders for food were ten minutes ago."

                                    In California we do taters in a flour tortilla, soft-taco-style, with a smear of tart cream.

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

                                        In California we do taters in a flour tortilla, soft-taco-style, with a smear of tart cream.

                                        Oh, yeah, and there are fries (sorry, sorry, "chips") in French tacos*, too.

                                        *French tacos are not tacos, although they are called that in French. Meat (originally donair), cheese sauce, and chips wrapped in a flour tortilla like a burrito, then press-grilled like panini.

                                          I remember some kids at school eating them, if I ever did, I clearly wasn't impressed enough to do it again. 🤷‍♂️
