Scooby Snack

The Scoobie Snack is a hamburger sold primarily at the maggie snack bar in Glasgow, Scotland. It is a popular fast food item with students.[1] The all time record, completed in 2002, for consecutive Scooby Snacks consumed in one sitting is 3. This tremendous achievement was completed by Peter Ramwell, a Glasgow University student at the time who proudly received a fourth Scooby Snack for free as a reward.

Composition

The Scoobie Snack consists of a hamburger, a sliced sausage, a bacon rasher, a potato scone, a fried egg and a slice of processed cheese, all contained within a floured hamburger bun and accompanied by tomato ketchup and brown sauce. Fried onions are also offered as an optional extra. [2]

The Scoobie Snack, because of the sausage, cheese, bacon and egg, takes similar resemblance to a breakfast roll but is often eaten at lunchtime.

The Scooby Snack's invention is accredited to The Maggie Snack Bar, a food truck located for over 50 years at the intersection of Byres Road and Great Western Road.[3] It can now be ordered on Uber Eats and Deliveroo from The Maggie Snack Bar! [4]

Derivatives

A derivative, the Super Scooby, was invented by The Jolly Fryer café in Bristol in 2009. It consists of four quarter-pound beef patties, eight rashers of bacon, eight slices of cheese, 12 onion rings and six slices of tomato in a sesame seed bun, accompanied by salad, lettuce, barbecue sauce and mayonnaise.

Standing eight inches tall, the sandwich contains 2,645 kilocalories (11,070 kJ), which is more than the recommended daily intake of an adult male. The sandwich costs GB£10 and comes with chips; If both the burger and chips are consumed in one sitting, customers are given a free Diet Coke to aid digestion.[5]

gollark: 18k ones are probably not that common.
gollark: On the plus side, you can use R U S T™ on the web now!
gollark: WASM blobs for things are often significantly bigger than JS for that thing.
gollark: More so than currently.
gollark: I fear that WASM will make sites download horrendous amounts of code they don't need, though.
