Do British actually use old newspapers to serve french fries? Aren't they afraid that the ink leeches into the food?It's outrageous.

>>537008838Chips did come in newspapers back in the 1970's maybe into the 1980's too // they were not used newspapers, they came from the press shops (unsold newspapers) it was cheap and functional.
>>537009450Also kino.
>>537009450They were still folded with white paper first then double wrapped in newspaper to keep it hot while you got home.Your mam would have portioned yours out
>>537008838chippy chips don't look like that
>>537008838>Do British actually use old newspapers to serve french fries?British Chippies don't serve 'French Fries'.
>>537009389never did when i were a lad in Yorkshire. >>537009558maybe for a take away but ive eaten out of just newspaper plenty of times. maybe depended on the chippy
>>537009681Thats a wedgeOr as we call emwedgies
>>537009995You lie>>537009558Is correct . . .I was born in the mid 60s , I remember.
>>537008838They literally left the EU because we made them use faux newspaper parchment paper instead.That and THE BENDY BANANAS!
>>537010134nay lad. its rait true that is.
>>537010237I don't speak fake internet accents either.
>>537008838Ayo indian people aint season they chips wif ink lmao
>>537010294right, because its impossible that anyone could move from england to canada. good one mate.
>>537008838>It's outrageous.Take your horsepill, Jebediah.The seed oils used to fry those chips are far more dangerous.
>>537009558Eagle Comic .. Alfie Tupper, Tough of the Trackhere is cultural proof we did in fact eat fish and chips from a newspaper back in the day
>>537010580I think your memory fails you, they always had plain paper to cover the chips and were wrapped in newspaper.
>>537010736i think you're just generalizing your limited experience to include every chippy in all of Blighty
>>537010676my mistake .. not Eagle but Rover (or Victor) .. they were much the same .. both Boys Comics
>>537008838They already have brain damage some ink isn’t going to bother them
>>537010822I've been to enough of them.If you want to write your own narrative . . .then by all means but newspaper is WAAAY too absorbent the chips would just stick to it.
>>537011048Didn't use sneed oil back in the day, chippy's used Beef tallow .. way less greasy than todays chip
>>537011048i remember it just being for a portion of chips that you eat right there...or stood outside etc. it would be shaped into a cone.
>>537008838Not since the eighties when they realized the ink causes cancer. You sometimes get mock newspaper style chip paper,as is the case in OPs pic
>>537011243I remember it being newspaper and if you asked they would give you a free helping of the fried batter bits too for free
>>537008838Poop colored ID lolJeet
>>537011201You are too young to remember . . . .what is tallow? >>537011243Never had cones either . . . .only later in the late 90s when I come across them at a seaside place for stupid money.
>>537011407Scraps...oooo tasty
>>537011407yeah i remember that stuff. they had a name for it where we were but cant remember it. wish there were chippies over here like you used to find them everywhere in england. my kids are missing out on culture.
>>537011331ink doesn't cause cancer you moron .. I worked in a drawing office for scientific journals (graphs and illustrations) ink everywhere .. I'm sure I ingested a pint of ink over the years one way or another.
>>537011512im truly shocked that our experiences in different times and places could differ in some details. shocked.
>>537011512Are you retarded?It's always come in cones, for a small small, gone chips. And if you don't know what tallow is you're barley British, be off with you.
I’d be more worried about all the faecal bacteria
>>537011512Son.. I am probably old enough to be your grandad.
>>537008838>Do British actually use old newspapers to serve french fries? Aren't they afraid that the ink leeches into the food?That's how you expose more goyim to Jew News Socialist propaganda. Also to slowly poison them with toxic ink.
>>537008838belgians also serve it in a newspaper
>>537008838Indians will drink cow piss then worry about some ink rubbing off onto their food.
>>537011581Well, that's what my old man told me, and he worked for the.evening mail. I'd assume newspaper ink is slightly different to indian ink. Also, if it's not toxic, why stop using it, twat fact?
>>537011407Hush Puppies
>>537011512Tallow is the cow version of lard.
>>537011581Rip. Why are you drinking ink?
>>537011581"Newspaper ink is not immediately lethal but is considered toxic and potentially harmful, leading to its ban as food packaging in the UK and EU. The primary health concerns stem from lead content and other chemicals in older inks that could leach into hot, greasy food, raising fears of lead poisoning. Key reasons for the ban:Toxicity: Ink contains substances like petrol, lead, and coal-derived compounds that are unsafe for human consumption. Regulations: The EU banned wrapping food in used newspaper in the 1980s, citing that ink could alter the food's composition, taste, and smell. Phasing Out: The practice was phased out between the 1980s and early 1990s, though some recalls note it persisted in certain areas until the late 1990s. "Good.luck in later life twat face. My old man was right, you're a poisen cunt
>>537011603Surprising ?I am not a Northerner though and before you ask I don't come from London either.Hey just look at this kid >>537011612 >It's always come in conesDo you want to tell him or I ? And apparently I'm 'barley British' . . .whatever that is?
>>537008838No. Literally no-where still does that, and I have never seen it in my three and a half decades of working on increasing the size of my gut with delicious fried food.
>>537011721Ink was/is expensive .. like every other efficiency that is unseen ink (proper ink) got replaced by cheaper alternatives over the years .. I have no idea what print shops use these days ..
>>537011934>LiterallyFFS
>>537011810I would have to lick the pen nibs all the time .. even though we used very fine papers fibres would collect over time and you would get blobs forming or drying out the nib well .. occupational hazard of a line artist
For me, it's Belgian fries
>>537011581Old newspaper ink could be toxic, especially the colored ink due to VOCs and heavy merals. Nothing from the 1980s onward should be dangerous. And it would've taken constant exposure tobor direct, copious ingestion of the old inks to cause problems.
>>537008838Do Americans really use PFAS covered wrappers around their burgers?
>>537008838DO CANADIANS ACTUALLY USE INK TO TATTOO THEIR SKIN? ARENT THEY AFRAID THE INK LEECHES INTO THEIR LYMPH NODES?
>>537011818These are the same regulatory baodies that forced the vaxx, and sneed oil and GMO and every other poison.You realise that regulations like this are used to keep markets standardised. If an indutrial lobbyist says hey .. look use this now, it's better or cheaper or more Green, he is guaranteed his market.Perfect example is Yaupon .. a plant native to the US that has more caffeine and some of the good compounds from coacoa plant also .. grows natively in the US, Coffee and Tea producers had it's taxonomical name changed to (Ilex Vomitoria) in order to convince the public is was poisonous or bad for them and so drink Tea and Coffee. The opposite is true, but it lost the regulatory war because there was no money behind it.ok .. you can go back to wanking now,
>>537012207if they are fat, they are belgian
>>537012128What would you prefer? "Veritably"? "Manifestly"? I'm sorry American culture rotted my brain anon. :(
>>537011694>>537011694Pretty sure I've actually met that guy in a pub. Post political demonstration against the EU or somesuch. Genuinely would rather hang out with complete characters like this you meet in every pub - they're like like real-life versions of Lord of the Rings personalities. We can't all be beautiful twinks you know.
>>537012586>if they are fat, they are belgianThe person or the fries?
>>537012984the fries, if they look like this they are what we call belgian friesnow you have something interesting to say to your friends when you eat some
>>537012698>I'm sorry American culture rotted my brain anon. :(Too much time on the internet.Don't use 'literally' it makes you sound like a 12 year old American girl. I laughed earlier at the kid (with a British flag) who was talking about 'Tallow' and telling me I was 'barley British'.Well Tallow is an American term . . . .we always called it Beef Dripping or just Dripping.I think he spent too much time listen to half-wit Americans on the internet.
>>537008838better the the irish they hand you a potato and tie your hands together with toilet paper
>>537012743Ireland has a major twink problem or at least its image here does.
>>537008838Chestnuts here.
>>537008838>It's outrageous.kek, I read that like Jeremy from Peep Show was saying it.
>>537008838Not anymore, and even back in the 1970s when newspaper was used there was a fresh sheet of paper as the inner layer. The newsprint was often the unsold copies from newsboys so it was still clean, and only used as insulation.The modern kitsch copies use deliberatrly fake newsprint, so its not a problem with using ink.
>>537008838i dont think it's actual newspapers. Specially made fake newspapers probably
>>537008838Ink and shitty paper adds to the flavor
>>537008838>the inkIs made of basedbean oil.
>>537013369kek true
>>537013346Ok wank mouth, you wouldn't us dripping in a fish and chip shop. Youd use tallow. Your mom uses beef dripping sure, but a chip shop wouldn't. These are two different things, not different words for the same thing.
>>537017406Plus, I have fat fingers and an aggressive spell check. And your mom probably uses beef dripping on her fanny
In 1992 I once took a trip to Toronto. During my time there I watched a man openly fucking a dog down and alleyway in broad daylight. Draw your own conclusions but I think we all know that the meme is based on some degree of reality.
>>537008838Brits are shit eating people.
I live up the street from a scottish pub that has amazing newspaper wrapped fish and chips
>>537009389Where do you even buy a newspaper from in 2026? You bongs are so fucking weird.
>>537008838this was standard her under glorious (not) gommunism into the early 1990s
>>537008838Only the pages wirh crosswords - this special ink gives them the extra iq per page.
>>537021862a rare Hans mit Humor
>>537008838I don't ate cow turd
>>537008838It washes off. Or it passes through. There are worse things.
>>537017406Vegetable Oil was more expensive back in the 70's than Beef tallow .. It is rather recent product for the masses. The Hydrogenation process started in the 1950's but it wasn't until the mid-late 90's that it started being marketed hard .. at home most people used lard or tallow for frying until then.
>>537023638*1980's (my mistype)
>>537008838Look at their teeth and tell me they fucking care
>>537021228This isn't a thing, but was a thing 20+ years ago. And obviously they weren't using used newspapers, only the unsold surplus.
>>537008838You know whats sad, even newspapers are shit now compared to the old newspapers. Everything is thinner now, paper bags at grocery stores are a joke now, like tissue paper thin, canned food cans are as thin as soda cans now also, they always dent just picking them up. Everything is shit now.
>>537023839this is what happens when everything is squeezed for cost efficiency rather than pragmatic function, the Jew squeezes hard the Goy suffers the cost
