Brits really do treat chips with the same reverence as Italian and pasta, the Japanese and rice, or Americans and corn syrup.

But cheese, chips and gravy sounds fucking mank

gravy and cheese is a classic, I’m more concerned about the curry and cheese combo

(obv paneer masala is spectacular but British takeaway curry + mature cheddar? cursed)

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !confidently_incorrect@lemmy.world

I can never remember the correct way to do this. Hopefully someone will build it into the editor!

Pretty good chippy combo. Ask the Canadians about it.

Are “chips” in this context French fries?

Why didn’t they just have “chips” and then everything else individually listed and I can make my own combination? It’s no difficult to make, and it takes up less space on the board.

Because that way you’d get people asking for unholy abominations such as gravy and curry sauce, tuna and beans, or coleslaw and bolognaise.

Let’s assume the currency is £ (but that doesn’t really matter for the example).

Chips = £2.20

Chips + Cheese = £3.00

That means, that just the Cheese = £3.00 - £2.20 = £0.80

Chips + Beans = £2.50

That means, that just the Beans = £2.50 - £2.20 = £0.30

Chips + Cheese + Beans = £3.50

£2.20 + £0.80 + £0.30 = £3.30

I guess they did this so people don’t notice they are getting ripped off…

They fucked up the price for chips, cheese, & bolognaise sauce. If it was 3.80 then everything would have a unit price

Not true - cheese changes price if it has more companions. It’s only .80 when with chips, but 1.00 with other stuff.
