DELETE. I see about 4,400 Google matches for this but nothing to suggest it is an actual notable dish in need of a Wikipedia article. JBsupreme (talk) 07:36, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Without resorting to "other stuff exists", I have to say this looks no more or less notable than many of the other food entries. Just check out, for example, this list of sandwich entries... Hairhorn (talk) 11:04, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per Hairhorn. The proposed reason for deletion is surely tripe. :) Ben Mac Dui 18:51, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as a well known regional dish. Certainly has notability outside of Scotland as well. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:18, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Bubble and Squeak. It is called that in many parts of Scotland, also. Trista (cannot log in at work)24.176.191.234 (talk) 21:43, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
