Okay being that I'm a southerner and Mr is a Yorkshire man we have many funny arguments about what things are called..
So what do you call things..

Bread roll can be a bap, a barm, a bun or a teacake within around a 30 mile radius of Arse End...I have to remember to ask for a teacake in the works canteen and a bun in my local shop (for local people) |

Rolls are any bread that isn't a loaf.
We don't have batter bits here. They get thrown away with the fat. I suppose we would call them bits of batter we don't eat. |

What do you call your sweet course in a meal?
I and my family call it dessert or afters. My posh friend who went to Oxford says it's pudding. I argued that pudding is an object,like Christmas pudding,ice cream or apple pie isn't pudding. |

I had a relationship with a girl from Stoke (me being a southerner) who used to say if I was in a temper: "have you got a COB on?" and the first time I heard it I had not a clue, as thought a cob was a bread roll of some description |

I read that the sheep decimated the trees so they started breeding cattle instead. The sheeps pull up the saplings by the root or crop them very close. Tree killers are sheep,taste nice though |

Im a southerner living up north for past 18months.
my bread roll has become a bap or barm cake.
batter bits are now scraps
my sons packed lunch is now bait.
and my home is my yam.
My chips are smothered in gravy n cheese.
but a scone will always be a scone but not as in gone. |

Try moving up here. . . after 18 years up here i still can't get my head around why my sandwich has turned into something they call a Piece!
They also feed on something called "square sausage". . Looks nothing like sausage and tastes like cardboard!
Then when you go to the chip shop everything is called a "supper"
Your loaf of bread miraculously turns into "pan" bread
And don't get me started on cheese! .you can only get Cheddar . . They ain't heard of the likes of Lancashire cheese or Cheshire cheese!
