You know Ireland has more drunks per capita than people

Hasn't your recent place visited got more cubic metres of batter than people at any time?

Yes, the fish shop had deep fried fish, deep fried sausage, deep fried chicken, deep fried haggis and deep fried mars bars. That came as a set meal in a family bucket. For the salad dodgers there was also the option of deep fried pizza.

What, you trying to outfat us Americans?

[Dauphin]

Scotland isn't just trying, it's succeeding. It's just sheer American desire to be #1 that is keeping the last deep fried pork pie out of Scotland's reach.

Deep fried Mars bars have health benefits!

Deep-fried Mars Bars have health benefits
Scientists claim they are nutritious

SCIENTISTS have found that a notoriously unhealthy snack invented in the north-east does have its benefits.

Deep-fried Mars Bars were served to delegates at a science conference with the promise they were nutritious.

The battered confection was first served in a Stonehaven chip shop in 1995, and has since been labelled one of the most unhealthy foods ever.

But guests at the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Conference were assured the snack provided basic nutrients like carbohydrate and protein, and, unsurprisingly, fat.

The Royal Society of Chemistry, which is hosting the conference in Glasgow, has said the deep-fried Mars Bar also provides some vitamins and minerals, and is low in salt.

Scientists did say, however, that the snack is effectively a meal in itself, as it contains 600 calories.

The sickly-sweet dish was invented at the Carron Fish and Chip shop in Allardice Street, Stonehaven, and has gained notoriety across the world as a symbol of an unhealthy Scottish diet.

As Scotland has become one of the fattest countries in the world, the snack has become proof of the country’s collective sweet tooth.

The treat has inspired international variations, with battered Snickers bars in America and deep-fried Moro bars in New Zealand.

You in Scotland now? Can you have chips with that lot and call it "supper"?

And isn't Anderson a Scandy name anyway?

Whilst everyone else here is calling it that, I am refraining.

[Provost Harrison]

"Lardathon" is probably the most accurate term

"Fish Supper".
