My other half (a Turk, raised in London) worked at a cafe in Notts when she first moved north. The first order she ever received was for a ‘bacon cob’.

She’s been here 6 years now and still finds it utterly bizarre.

‘Someone’s just asked me for a bacon cob, but I don’t know what they want’ - is an exact quote. The cook was rather amused apparently.

She calls them rolls, which is not quite as daft but equally as incorrect, as this would make the sausage variant inextinguishable from the very thing that made Greggs famous.
