Just for fun in line with the scone thread. I thought I would ask all you lovely people 'do you call it a Barm, Cob, Roll, Bap or Batch'?
Me, I have always gone with 'barm' or 'barm cake' if it's a hard one like a tiger bread, I would say 'crusty cob'.
A lot of it is regional so I'm intrigued  |

Bap or roll depending on the yums inside
Bacon bap, sausage bap.
Cheese roll, egg roll, chicken roll.
You can't have a sausage roll because that implies a sausage yum wrapped in pastry.
Or a bacon roll because it just does not sound the same.
So bap = hot yums. Roll - cold yums

Hmmmm... I would sometimes say a bacon roll if the bacon was hot and the roll/bun isn't toasted. |

"The shape, the crust, the texture, the region .....
All of those names are bread product specific.
Nothing to argue over.
Huge difference between an oven bottom bap and a top crusted cob......
"
Love it, thank you |

Well, Warburtons call them Barm Cakes and print it on the packaging. But it is a very specific shape, colour and is traditionally cooked at the bottom is the oven, hence the full name "oven-bottom barms". |

"Stottie?
Yes please..... I love stottie
That's a new one on me "
A stottie is not the same. It’s a different type of bread that is only usually available in the North East |

"Bap or roll. But if it's got chips in, then it's then called a butty."
Pmsl! This reminds me of the time I went in to the chipshop on Colchester High Street, and asked for a chip butty with gravy.......it really was like I was speaking a foreign language! |

That's because Warburtons are local in the North West |

Are you FROM Wigan?! 
It's a barm. Bacon barm, sausage barm, pastie barm etc. The word "butty" is acceptable e.g chip butty. But never roll  |

It's most certainly not a Yorkshire thing... it's a teacake in East Lancashire....
If it's got currants in it... its a currant teacake |

Yep and teacakes in East Lancs...
Although an oven bottom is something different again |
