YES, I know that battered food is bad for you but, please, hands off our tradition chippie fish!
Council officials in Rochdale are trying to encourage healthy eating by getting local chippies to offer steamed fish instead of battered fish.
So far, six chippies have agreed, often offering healthy options alongside the rather more unhealthy ones.
I’m with the Council all the way here on fighting obesity, but we still have to have treats sometimes. And, for most of us, steamed fish will never, repeat never, replace that occasional portion of gorgeous battered cod or plaice.
Preferably with mushy peas.
