They were all out of plastic dishes? Cheap service?

Because you couldn't get it up the first time. I assume it had fried peanut butter and bannana sandwiches.
Damn that munchy box looks good and what a freakin value! I still remember the first time I tasted vinegar on fish and chips at 2 am on an Oxford side street from a cart vendor. I treasure the greasy memory.

Chips - that's chips, not fries, you fucking fairy boy yanky doodle dandies - only truly dance on the palate once enlivened with the marriage of salt and vinegar.

Likewise. Except I think mine were stuffed in with falafel. Canadians have something similar, I think, but us Americans are all out of luck.

The pizza crunch he's talking about came about around the early 2000s, it's a half frozen pizza, typically deep fried but in this instance - dipped in batter and deep fried. Absolutely foul, I haven't tried one but I can imagine it's effectively a deep fried heart attack.
I am both intrigued and disgusted.
I am also debating trying it myself, since there's (

And I reccomend being drunk off your ass on brown ale with Jack O'Reily and Rob Hinton the two biggest smart ass balllsy motherfuckers on the planet. And I'm not a damned yankee you saucy fagget I'm from the south where we make yankees cry. Ima cry myself just thinking about those fullashit bastards.

I'm not sure if people realise that this isn't no "Euro" thing, it is a Scots thing. The Scots do some crazy unhealthy fatty stuff, like the Pizza crunch, the famous deep fried Mars bar (for those that don't know a Mars bar is (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_bar) chocolate bar, deep fried haggis (I like Scottish chip shop haggis, and well, haggis full stop) and more.

Central belt Scotland, the cuisine capital of the world.
Fried pizza comes in 2 flavours, fried in batter or fried au natural.
For a few mouthfuls it's curiously pleasant till your brain kicks in.
And it's called crappy salad because no-one eats it, it's only there to dump on the pavement.
A lot of this stuff doesn't come from Glasgow originally, it's from the shit holes around it.
Places I think some people would be surprised at existing in the UK.
Saltcoats, Airdrie, Kilmarnock (my old place), Irving.

Heh, Airdrie, just up the road from where I grew up!
