I was at the local farmers market this morning and I was a bit peckish so I went to the little café they had inside there. Marvellous, I thought. When I got there, though, every menu item came in a bap (a bread bun). All of them, bar the soup. So you could have a sausage bap, a bacon bap or an egg bap. If you don't like baps or can't eat them, you're pretty much out of luck.

Watch the baps. If you don't like baps you're in trouble. Think of the baps. The baps! Baps!

So I left and had a burger with egg at home instead.

Saves on plates?

Suppose you could always just eat the protein.

If you're highly allergic to wheat, then you're out of luck

Had they had beans, I could have had a fry-up instead. It was not to be though. :(

Rolls are not the same thing as baps.

What happened to Martin Landau, and why are his arms so long?

I think that's the heart of the joke.

Never mind.

Martin Landau's still around. He's doing the voice for one of the characters in Tim Burton's upcoming stop-motion animated movie Frankenweenie.

we sell baps here in the grocery store, though they are labeled "Scottish Baps". i don't really understand how they are different from rolls or buns.

I used to know a Scottish guy who referred to women's breasts as "baps", had to click on the topic for that very reason.

It's a double entendre. In Scotland and Northern Ireland particularly bread buns are referred to as baps.
