HawkMan Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 "Bun" if it's specifically made for hamburgers. "Roll", otherwise. you wouldn't use those for burgers, burger buns are completely different consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biohead Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 So looks like I'm the only one around here who knows them as bread cakes :huh: Must be a People's Republic of Yorkshire thing :woot: spikey_richie 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coagulated Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Bun. We have this argument every few months with our Scottish Graphic Designer at work, he's adamant they're rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metallithrax Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I'm from Yorkshire and would normally call it a tea cake. I think folks from t'other side of t'hills call them barms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firey Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 In the form that the picture shows, it's a roll. If you slice it in half and put something between it, then it's a bun. That's how I see it, at least. That's my thought as well. Hard to tell from picture, kinda looked like a hamburger bun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the love of god - tea cakes have currants in them :trout: Sans-currant they are a humble bread cake ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneNutter MVC Posted August 16, 2013 MVC Share Posted August 16, 2013 For the love of god - tea cakes have currants in them :trout: I would call it a Teacake too, defiantly a regional thing though. I've got some strange looks elsewhere saying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dipsylalapo Supervisor Posted August 16, 2013 Supervisor Share Posted August 16, 2013 I'd call that a cob, but think that it may be regional thing. I had a lot of strange looks when using the word cob at university. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttus Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 looks like a dinner roll, or a type of hamburger bun, can't tell the size of it in the pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hum Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 If the bread rolls across the floor, it is a roll ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandor Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Bap or roll. A longer one for say a hotdog would be closer to a "roll" though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

applenerd Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 a BAP - put some bacon in it and you are on a roll ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan R. Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Some of the stuff in here is just bizarre. Da f' is a freakin' bap? Cob? You mean like a cob salad? Never heard these things in my life. To me it's a damn roll or bun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what do you call one of these? Barm is a Oldham / Manchester region thing (Roads are named with Barm e.g. Barm Road or Barm Way) and further north they become Barm Cake, Teacake. I had no idea until I ordered lunch whilst away on training in Oldham. I'm from the south west, we refer to rolls as rolls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raa Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Technically I'd call it a bread roll. Because a roll is a list of names. A rolls is a car. If you're saying out outloud, a roll is something you do with a die/dice, or a part you play, or something that a car can do if you left the handbrake off. Gee I love the English language. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spikey_richie Posted November 18, 2013 Author Share Posted November 18, 2013 WTF? Get a hold of a Cocker Spaniel, tie this person down on a chair with a potty on his head, then pop his todger between two floury baps, and shout "Dinnertime, Fido!"

Sir Topham Hatt Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Crusty = cob Floury = bap Hotdog shaped = roll However roll and bap are interchangable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
