They don't eat pasty barms in Bury?

 

I'm sure Casino's had a few in his time. Odd.

It could do I suppose, but I think they eat them there too, It is, after all, only a pasty on a barm, no real secret recipes or owt.

There is an art in eating them though.

that is true, but the extra size gobs found on the average Bury inhabitant means they would not have to put as much thought into it.

(no offence Matt :db: )

and must have lashings of proper butter

Pasty Barm, with Ketchup, from Ye Olde Pastie Shoppe!!

Now I've read some weird stuff on here, but a Bolton fan who's never heard of a Pasty Barm takes the biscuit...

 

I have a pasty barm every weekday from Armstrongs on Morris Green Lane.

Awesome stuff and a great hangover cure. Can lead to shambolic scenes if you ask for one outside of Bolton though, tried in Chorley and Bury and they're clueless.

Correct (no ketchup), the best pasty barm in Bolton :)

Barm is acceptable, even if a Manc term, because there is no other foodstuff called barm/barmcake (although I prefer flourcake). It's when mongalongs use terms like muffin or teacake that gets my goat.

 

I don't give a sh*t if "...that's what we call it in Dingleville". If I had a chippy I'd keep the aforementioned sweet treats in stock, just in case some numpty asked for a 'chip muffin' or 'fish on a teacake'...

 

Two Pastie Shoppe pasties squashed on a flourcake with a dash of Encona hot sauce - magnifique!

bury - muffin

 

bolton - flour cake
