I ordered way too many of those when I lived in Paisley.

Look on the plus side. When you hit rock bottom the only way is up.

It's been a while since I've had one of them... I'm hungry now. Only a couple of hours till the chippy opens!
Mykeyboy
Battered sausages all round!

Apparently this only costs a fiver... never before has a heart attack been so cheap
LoopStricken
WHAT. Why can't we get these in England?! Goddamn.
SmashItApartAndLickTheSides
I saw the Tango and Vimto cans and the moan that came out of my throat made me jump a little.

BRB, flying to Scotland to get hammered and eat this

America thinks there is far too much oil in this. Time you got strapped up for some democracy.

Clever! :)

These look like a less glorious version of kapsalon.
TinySpectralLlama
My thoughts exactly, must be the lack of a shitton of garlic.
FIuxie
That makes it good tho.
alboner
That looks a hearty breakfast
VulpineEmpress
It'll certainly do something to the heart...
obsyddian
As a Scot, I always chuckle a little inside when Americans talk about their "unhealthy" foods. We deep-dry chocolate here.
kerms
We deep fry Coke in America. As well as candy bars.
Khanecz
Aaaaaand you're fat
altonbrowndeserveshisownmemefuckyouifyoudisagree
i would fuck that up

GET IN MY BELLY!
mikeFC87
What, no deep fried Mars bars?
MrProsser42
I never though I would say this about a box filled with fried food and meat, but that really does not appeal to me, what a mess.
DiceyBusiness
Like bar hoes, it requires beer goggles to fully appreciate.
StarrryNight
fuck aye
Mykeyboy
I may order in one of these bad boys tonight, I wasn't using my arteries anyway.
ToxicPineapple
Can you fed ex me one here in Merica?
gingermonkey
how much are these abd boys and where you get them from :P
2AMersal
£7.00 to £10.00 down here in South west Scotland, depending on the pizza box size. Most chip/kebab shops in Scotland have them
DanAykroydFanClub
I may get the next train from Sheffield to Glesgae. I'm hungover and there's a munchie box sized hole in my soul.
exclamestion
Are they a Scotland-wide thing? Just moved to edinburgh you reckon I can get one here
dunc
You can get them from Chilli Connection on South Clerk St
exclamestion
cheers, you're a king amongst men

As a Scotsman in England i'm im now home sick. Plus i cant find a pint of tennents anywhere!
DiceyBusiness
As a Scotsman in Scotland why'd you miss this place? Earn yours, then come back to retire in a nice glen and get called English settler.
darthheyburt
In the urinal, where it usually is.
scooterneverhurtnobody
I see that Irn Bru
LobcockLittle
Irn bru is just creaming soda.
RadishIsAMeat
Should have made it a diet Irn Bru to keep the meal healthy.
rocktrumpet
Made from girders
earwaxx
Compulsory
vickyangel
I have to live for 11 months without Bru and don't know how to survive, it's an addiction T___T
AWdeV
Well obviously. It's rather prominently placed.
Amp21
me too....loves me some Irn Bru!
justforconfessions
you could swim laps in all that grease. :)
narwhaffle
good
Kidiri
Dat Irn Bru.
reetnesh
I'm disappointed there wasn't more Irn Bru! But Vimto's good too.
Mykeyboy
Irn Bru is essential. Hmmm now to find a decent photo...

Get in ma belly!

Yeah we more or less have this in N.I too @Mykeyboy my local kebab shop is getting a call tonight thanks to you.

Hurray!

Introducing: The Garbage Plate http://www.roadfood.com/photos/21880.jpg Dogs, meat sauce, mac and cheese, home fries, all mixed together
BMANN
As a Rochester native, I have to hand it to the Scottish for inventing what's basically Garbage Plate Rank II.
igloodiscombobulated
Native to Rochester NY
pdpbigbang
Also has a version with hamburger patties and cheese :)
Rhase
We call them garbage plates in the US.
Rhase
(No, seriously)
thedevil
Thata regional, I'm guessing your from NY? Upstate? This is the origin of the garbage plate after all
Rhase
Yep, good guess. Central NY
thedevil
HEY me too, well western tier.
SomeObscureReference
My arteries hurt just looking at this.
sp4cepope
my ass hurts just looking at this.
2AMersal
I just get hungry looking at this, might pop out for one the now.
Bunnii
... but you still want it don't you...
SomeObscureReference
Not particularly, no. I'll take the shaved lamb and onions, but the rest looks like mediocre, overly greasy, bar food.
Bunnii
I've never had bar food.. or been to a real bar... so uh... ... it probably looks better than it tastes I guess lol
SomeObscureReference
It depends on your tastes/preferences. I would definitely say so. They rely on grease as a substitute for spices or actual flavoring.
Bunnii
Unfortunate but this post DOES give me some ideas for a big food platter for the family! (sans grease)
Mykeyboy
Average contents in no particular order: Onion rings, 'salad', Glasgow salad, chicken/mushroom/veggie pakora, doner meat, shish meat, nan
captain5
Hey OP ... Can I have some?
ourari
I love it when different cultures come together on a plate (or in a box).
CapnJackSparrow
Can they ship this overseas? Yes? Ok, I'll take 200 please
brap
What's a "Glasgow salad"? A regular salad that punches you in the face?
AnImgurianformerlyknownasfuzzylogic
Chips and gravy. Chips and vinegar.
boobidibaiboo
and a can of fucking irn bru aswel m8!
qaaaaa
The salad makes it healthy.
HornedBadger
Goddamnit OP. I swore off takeaways last week, now you present to me my biggest weakness. Irn Bru + Munchie box
515XIX
How can you call that Scottish if there is no deep fried mars bar?!
Origiins
Fuck, I want one now.
markpaulthompson
Also, chips (fries)
IhavenoideawhattowriteasusernameOhwait
we italians call our President, Matteo Renzi, Shish
armadillox
We need this in Finland, this is better than rolled kebab
thecolonels
Doner is a weird word to me. It's donair, to me.
caroe
Yeah in Canada it's donair.. and apparently nowhere does "donair sauce" except the maritimes :-s
thecolonels
We got that stuff in Alberta, probably from all the maritimers coming west.
suomynona107
I'm gonna visit soon. Is it available Everywhere in general?
HeyLookAGinger
I want to go to there.
IamJustGoingToSayExactlyWhatiAmThinking
there's something very similar in the US called the garbage plate. unpleasant name and the contents are bit more mixed together.
Vaemethius
There is? O.o Is it like an east coast thing or am I just sheltered?
IamJustGoingToSayExactlyWhatiAmThinking
i live near syracuse NY and its very popular around here. apparently it originated in rochester NY. so it may not have spread your way.
MycurlyhairsaysIcantgoouttoday
S.C. here. Never heard of this.
SodaRayne
I'm curious (and apparently too lazy to Google), what is Glasgow salad?
LizzieMouse
Chips/fries
Mykeyboy
Chips!
Eogos
I wanna go to Scotland now :( actually I wanna be rich aswell
marylovesbigdipper
translation for Muricans - fries
alonelyrandy
this is the best thing ever
iliketokeepitsimplestupid
I wish my trainer at the gym would let me eat that salad...
SodaRayne
Hah, excellent.
TintreachToirneach
As somebody who'll soon be living in Scotland and traditionally struggles with greens, that sounds like my sort of salad...
CheesePataflafla
Heading for uni? Am in the same boat but for work. Be prepared, they deep fry EVERYTHING at the chipper
TintreachToirneach
Yep indeed. Not much of a chipper person anyway, but will keep in mind!
StarrryNight
I was under the impression a Glasgow salad was cold chips eaten the next day
wetcat
its been so long i cant remember what IRN BRU tastes like
asteconn
It looks so ghastly! It needs to be in my stomach post-haste!
MetalGreymon
I'm trying to work out if I recognise any of the munchy boxes here. Cuz most chippys have their own 'blend' but I can't tell.
InspectorGoole
When I went to Glasgow saw a couple eating deepfried pizza with doner kebab on top and chugging buckfast. My arteries clogged just watchin.
HerpNDerpington
"nan" I FUCKING KNEW SCOTS WERE CANNIBALS! WHY GRANDMAS? WHY?!?!
izzythegoblin
I'm crying with hunger.
genericusername5
Where the fuck is the iron bru?
Alah2
Irn Bru.
DrunkenDaveIsDrunk
I miss Irn Bru. So goddamn much.
mockwerks
Looks like doner meat is the same as gyro meat. Right?
Tankdoggy
Doner = Doner kebab = Turkish Gyro
Mykeyboy
Yup
Quessan
...It is now your responsibility to bring this amazing... thing... to the US!
IAmAPokemonMaster
reminds me of the "garbage plate" from Rochester NY
Mykeyboy
Plus optional curry, chicken burgers, beefburgers...essentially anything which can be fried and put in a box.
idiotn00b
I have never heard of beef burgers in a munchy box

I'm not sure what's gonna sploosh first my mouth or my dick

This is the first time I've heard of this, and am wondering how there's all these cultures in one dish
BloodGoddess
I want to go to there.
pencilv3ster
My friend loved IRN BRU. I'm from the states though. Not sure how he got it.
snuffaluffaluff
you can order it online...I looked it up once
TheNamesTalcJamesTalcSpecialAntiCakedayAgent
We are now. And we want them. This is a delicious horrible idea and I hope it explodes in America.
dass88
you want it to blow america? o.O
C0baltCrusade
and of course it comes with a can of Irn Bru (I fuckin' love that shitty juicy fruit soda so much)
Panteraftw
Irn Bru doesn't tase of fruit. Its more like sugar and rusty nails.
C0baltCrusade
JUICY FRUIT, like in the gum, not actual fruit. (Shits' nasty but I love it so much)
iRescueBadComments
IRN BRU most popular drink in Scotland. No i'm not Scottish I'm Americanish. I know this fact from Scott Manley.
CoconutCyclone
Excuse me, are you saying that there is a SODA which tastes like Juicy Fruit? I'm moving to Scotland.
Panteraftw
Wait, what. I'm confused.
derpesofthemouth
I WANT TO GO TO THERE
FlatPlutoSociety
To the endocrinologist's office?
daintymissdraven
take me there, i want to go there. take me there, lets go there.
LordoftheSevenKingdomsandProtectoroftheRealm
Sudden mass migration of us Americans to Scotland.
DiceyBusiness
That's called the vacation season, and we're very happy to sell them tartan guff and humour them about their 'clan histories'.
LordoftheSevenKingdomsandProtectoroftheRealm
Haha wow how did you find this comment
DiceyBusiness
Somewhere else on the internet mentioned munchie boxes and I ended up here. :D
underpantscharleston
Hey, Liz.
Skorpychan
It's a beautiful country. Ruined only by the weather and the locals.
Mykeyboy
This is 100% true.
YoSoyMelonLord
What's wrong with the locals? Just curious
OrbitusII
Damn Scots ruined Scotland!
DiceyBusiness
See you think that was a joke.
TintreachToirneach
I'm gonna be living there soon, but don't think I could survive too many of these...
Alah2
Have haggis on the other days.
TintreachToirneach
I mean, I can't really handle black pudding (type of blood sausage) so not sure that'd work out for me :S
Alah2
Also, depending on where you end up in Scotland, you should try a Rowie. Think of it is a fat persons croissant.
Alah2
I mean I love black pudding, but haggis is different. Baked Potato with Haggis, Cheese and Whisky sauce. Awesome!
TintreachToirneach
Hmm I'm traditionally unadventurous but I *do* love me some baked potato with cheese... Might have to give the combo a try!
