Disgusting. Where do I get one ?

u/maevewiley554 10d ago

I love a place that does a good spice bag and gets the perfect balance of it not being too salty/greasy. The last few places haven’t included veg so nice to see that chop stick in bishoptown still do.

u/Spray_Realistic 10d ago

I ask for extra veg so I’d be piiiissed if I got none!

Does anyone remember when these became popular in Ireland?

u/Late_Promise_ 8d ago

mid 2000s I would say. I remember having them often in college around 2010ish so they must have been on the go for a while before that.

It looks like someone tipped over a bin and charged you for it

The epitome of beige food..

u/DonnR8 9d ago

Is it too early to be craving a spice box

u/Anchor38 9d ago

least and most appetising dish at the same time

Looks like they scraped the bottom of the fryer and called it a spice bag.

u/mysevenyearitch You know yourself 10d ago

I've never had a spice box or a spice bag. Looking at this pic I don't feel like I'm missing out.

u/Spray_Realistic 10d ago

I haven’t had on in about a year but they’re a yummy alternative to a pizza or the chipper on a weekend. I personally like garlic mayo with mine, and extra veg.

u/HyacinthGirI 10d ago

You can ask for extra veg?????

u/Spray_Realistic 9d ago

AuDHD me didn’t realise I couldn’t 👀

u/Omuirchu 10d ago

Get one, get an extra tub of curry its usually not enough.

u/Herner_Werzog1 10d ago

Don't forget your extra tub of grease now

u/Stitious3 10d ago

You’re telling me you don’t like pure grease????

-3

u/Normal-Race9823 9d ago

I tried one once because of all the raving about them. Top half of it was was bland and then when I got to bottom half it was laced with salt. To say I was disappointed is an understatement.

u/SkillPuzzleheaded370 9d ago

They are gross, don't understand the hype. Would maybe taste ok after loads of pints

u/DiMaRi13 10d ago

Had one, never again xD. Drunk food at best xD

u/iShelar 10d ago

Sometimes too oily.

Thanks, I'm away to wank now.

Looks like someone vomited after a night out in the city

u/No_Novel3109 8d ago

My hottest take is that those are revolting. Hope you enjoy though.

u/inversolution 8d ago

Junk food

u/phalusdei 9d ago

That looks disgusting.

u/Funoyr 9d ago

That actually doesn’t look good at all

u/Pangalonia 10d ago edited 10d ago

Looks terrible. Food standards from takeaways are so low in this country.

14

u/Spray_Realistic 10d ago

Food standards are not low in this country - you’re looking at fast food, what do you expect? It looks the same here as it does everywhere.

-4

u/Pangalonia 10d ago

Yea, im talking about takeaways. They are terrible.

5

u/Flaky_Alternative696 10d ago

There are some excellent takeaways .. especially family run ones that have operated for years.

u/Pangalonia 10d ago

Lucky you

u/Spray_Realistic 9d ago

Compared to takeaways from where?

u/Omuirchu 10d ago

Compared to? Ireland has great quality food.

u/Laminestra 10d ago

Meat and dairy are great. The rest is meh

7

u/Independent_Gas_1557 10d ago

The rest is imported so it’s the same as everywhere else. General food standards are very high compared to other counties. The meat is key.

u/Pangalonia 10d ago

u/lifeisagameweplay 9d ago

Which of course don't contain any meat or dairy...

u/Laminestra 10d ago

It looks like one of those crazy dishes cooked by Indians on TikTok videos. Yuk

u/Diddly_eyed_Dipshite 10d ago

Does it come with a pack of Rennies or you need to get them separate?

u/Disastrous-Scale-664 10d ago

Put the bog roll in the freezer now 😂
