A chip shop has just opened in our area and we've had menus put through our doors. One of the items listed - in amongst pie suppers, pizza etc - is 'scrunchie'. You can have a whole scrunchie or half a scrunchie, with or without chips. What on earth is it? (The menu doesn't list a phone number, otherwise I'd phone the chip shop. I won't be down that way for a few days - and am just very curious.)

Have trawled the internet - and one site said a 'scrunchie' is a 'deep-fried battered pizza'. Think the hair accessory might be a better option!
Joy - I was thinking along the lines of the Deep Fried Mars Bars - perhaps Scrunchie is the same.

Down in Essex a Scrunchie is one of those rather fetching elasticated hair thingy bobs. hahaha
yuk Ive just pictured a deep fried crunchie and chips together on a plate,I am now intrigued to know what it is sounds strange.
ha-ha I know what you meant DEN
<heaveeeeeeeeeeeee>
This is what i found on Mr Google ... Consider starting your meal with cheese stuffed, deep-fried jalapeno chilli scrunchies or a plate of spicy nachos
Apparently it's a pizza in batter, deep-fried.
Yip, deep fried Pizza - I got one by mistake one (asked for 'deep pan' counter staff heard 'deep fried'). They are truly disgusting, they squeak with grease. The only thing I can compare them to are spam fritters - yuck.
They sound frickin gorgeous! I'll have some please.
oh god pizza in batter seriously cause there is just too few calories in pizza as it is even on my worst hangover day I could not crave that.
Yep it is a battered pizza, we have them up here called pizza crunch, have to admit, I do have one now and then, the kids love them, main lunchtime food for school kids from what I see them eating, have yet to try a deep fried mars bar, now thats a step too far.

Must visit the Northern latitudes to see what other delights I'm missing.
Any Glaswegians reading this thread will think it's a posh menu.
