    • What's amusing for me here is seeing that 'Bap' is a Norner thing, except for a wee smattering across the UK.. including one wee dot exactly where I grew upNairn

    • heh, I'd as much use any from bun, roll or bap, although I think the latter a bit wider and flatter. And then there are stotties... .Nairn
    • None come anywhere near closer to a Scottish Morning Roll though.Nairn

    • roll and bun pretty much interchangeable, local variety is the belfast bap, bit denser and 4 times the sizekingsteven
    • @Nairn you fuck off with that.
      Don't make me post photos of the homemade kebab I'll be making this weekend. Including the bread.

    • A roll or a bun. Bap sounds like a fancy thing you'd get at hipster eatery.skinny_puppy
    • @pups: I see you. Want an avocado bap? There's home-cured artisan smoked salmon on it.Continuity

    • I've heard Roll, Bap, Bun, Barm Cake, Cob, Batch. Kinda depends where you are in the country.Morning_star
    • surely we all love a warm pair of baps first thing in the morning. Maybe with some meat in there. And sauce?Ianbolton
    • but still, they're either bread rolls or buns here in LeedsIanbolton
    • Dinner roll!Akagiyama
    • travelled across the North of England last week - Bun, Roll, Bap and Barm were all used._me_
    • According to Italian-Canadians: cake_niko
    • a cob is a particular black country version, rectangular not round or square.
      a bap is larger, as nairn says

    • and i agree, the daddy of all is the scottish morning roll, perhaps the finest piece of baking known to mankind, as long as it's fresh from a bakery.hans_glib
    • supermarket "morning rolls" are an abomination.hans_glib
    • @m_s - good observation. Perhaps someone could map out all of the regional differences? That might be fun!Nairn
