Sauce wars

Did you know that people from Glasgow are said prefer their fish-and-chips with tomato sauce (which they call ketchup) but that in Edinburgh they prefer them with "sauce" (that's apparently "brown sauce", namely what we know as HP sauce)?

So what happens when a person from Glasgow orders chips in Edinburgh and is told he'll have to pay extra for ketchup, although he can have Edinburgh's favoured "sauce" for free?

Cries of discrimination go up, that's what.   It's all set out in The Independent.

My humble suggestion is that they let the bureaucrats in Brussels make a determination (as suggested in some of the on-line comments)!  Amongst the other comments on the article, I particularly liked the one that stated,

"I'm feeling racially persecuted"? Which race is that? If he is claiming Glaswegian as a race, then saying that all Glaswegians like ketchup and all Edinburghers like sauce on their chips is horribly racist stereotyping. He should be cited for hate speech".

Footnote:   In researching this post, I found out (from Wikipedia) that HP Sauce is called "HP" because the original developer heard that it was used in a restaurant in the Houses of Parliament!  But I haven't checked whether the product as sold in Australia has the image on the label.
