Small round bread thing : it's a cob!

By (user no longer on site) OP over a year ago

When I was out last night I asked for a cob and they didn't have a clue what I was on about. They said you mean a roll. No I mean a cob!

Are you getting a cob on about this now?

Reply privately, Reply in forum +quote or View forums list

By definition isn't a cob crusty, a teacake has raisins (unless in parts of Yorkshire) , a barmcake flatter (but not as big as a stottie), a oven bottom softer (as slower baked) and a roll about the size to fit in one hand and doesn't need cutting in half to hold?

Always happy to help with such an important debate

I think these threads illustrate quite clearly why the UK voted for brexit

I'm right cos these are the words my ma and pa use

No I'm right because these are the words my mom and pops use

No I'm right because my mum and daddy use these words

No I'm right because in my tribal area we use these words and laugh at the backwards lot who don't

I'm right because my tribe uses these words which is proper and not pretentious posh like your tribe

Ps a tea cake has raisins or sultanas in

"When I was out last night I asked for a cob and they didn't have a clue what I was on about. They said you mean a roll. No I mean a cob! "

I believe a cob is a particular type of bread roll, more domed and with a crusty dry surface.

It's a roll unless it's bigger than a roll and more flatter, and then it's a bap.

The only cob is corn on the cob
