[gasman]

My friends and i all call it SNAP here in Leeds Yorkshire, But my wife a Geordie girl calls it Baite, ive also heard it called a nosebag. Any other names for their lunch or lunch box out there ?

My other half's Mum was a Geordie, and he calls ihis dinner 'jock'. I'm in West Yorkshire and I've heard the 'snap' thing too, although I've also heard 'scran' but I've no idea where that's from !

I have an idea "scran" is Liverpudlian. "Piece" is definitely a Midlands word for a packed lunch or a sandwich.

I am in South Yorkshire and my late father was a miner, and he referred to his sandwiches he took to work as his Snap. It is used generically a lot in this area to describe any meal or repast. When you are a bit peckish, you are ready for some snap.

My grandma used to send my grandad to work with his 'snap tin' - (Yorkshire).

scran is definately a scouse word, piece is also scottish for a sarnie

[lankeela]

Many Londoners would just say grub i.e. lets get a bit of grub.

I also believe lunch boxes have been re-christened Lynfords, in deference to the athlete!

i've heard Army peeps call it scoff and scran.

My hubby uses piece and he's Scottish

I have dinner and tea personally!
