911debunker vs. Killtown

[Architect]

The Scots can't look at a foodstuff without wondering if it could use more batter and/or lard. What other nation on earth would deep fry a poor defenceless pizza?

They're absolutely disgusting and unfortunately quite real (unlike the old deep fried mars bar myth). The late, great Pete McCarthy used to do an absolutely splendid comedy routine about them.

It is a major health problem, there's no doubt about it though.

When I was in hospital the second time, on Xmas day, they brought in a diabetic guy with severe mobility problems and put him in the bed next to me. But the 27th I was ready to smother him. Anyway, he always had 2 bottles of Irn Bru and a box of Roses. Every day. Then complained that it was his genes.



ETA: Our American cousins will be wondering who the hell would deep fry a pizza, what's a Mars bar, and is Irn Bru medicinal? Welcome to Scotland, lads....

Well, I don't know about the others, but we do have Mars bars!

But you're unfamiliar with Irn Bru?!?! Watch these.

Scotland is the only Western country where Coke is not the best selling carbonated soft drink, believe it or not.

There's a chip shop in Leeds that does deep-fried Mars Bars.

I'm sure I've seen them advertised in Edinburgh as well.

Scotland: Worst Heart Attack Statistics in the Western World - And Prout of It!

(sponosered by the Scottish Tourist Board)

Everytime I hear "Black Pudding," I'm reminded of the Goodies.

The three Goodies standing around a vat of "stuff what goes into black pudding."

Graeme looks down at a list of ingredients, grimaces, and says "Ohhh, poor little Thomas kittens."

Ecky Thump!

I live 200 Miles From Scotland, and have never been there.


Although, i'm sure it's not much different from where I live now...it's all Britain.

Well, the Americans do have "chicken fried steak" and the French Canadians have Poutine (fried potatoes with gravy and melted cheese curd)

chippy, not sure if you got my PM, so when you are ready to debate Killtown, let me know, he's waiting/already started.

Yes, sorry Architect (specifically it's your arteries I should apologise to), but deep fried Mars bars do exist. I have a feeling that they came about through ostension though.

Deep fried pizza? Sorry. Calzone - by god yes. Any visitors to Edinburgh must visit La Favorita. Best pizza I've had outside Italy.

Wow, Killtown's heart really isn't into this it seems. He has failed to respond to SofG and I and in your debate thread nothing is happening either.

I want to see KT embarass himself and since I was banned at LC this is my chance.
