Tea cake/Barm cake/Bap/Bread roll/Batch....
...what do you call the humble recipient of tasty, savoury fillings?
Just been tweeting a very confused Michael Barrymore who is currently wrestling with the same topic while out and about in Yorkshire

Anyone who doesn't just call it a bread roll is a dirty northern monkey...

We simply call bread roll a roll. You simply say if you want if soft, hard, well fired, floury, bran, whatever. No fancy names for a simple basic food!

A quaint expression for scones and muffins etc. here is 'tea bread'. My Granny used it.

Pćo. Sometimes pćo francźs, sometimes pćo de sal, but always pćo.
It annoys me intensely as it's not the easiest word to pronounce. |

Stotty is a large breadbun up here in Yorkshire, or a bap.
A teacake has fruit in it but lovely for toasting! I don't care what you call it - I love the humble sandwich however you describe it! |

Definitely a roll, isn't that what they are called on the packets? Or are the labels changed for different regions?

Barm here
I got such a strange look when I asked for a chip barm in Stoke that I just stick to roll out of Lancashire. |
