When I was out last night I asked for a cob and they didn't have a clue what I was on about. They said you mean a roll. No I mean a cob!

By definition isn't a cob crusty, a teacake has raisins (unless in parts of Yorkshire) , a barmcake flatter (but not as big as a stottie), a oven bottom softer (as slower baked) and a roll about the size to fit in one hand and doesn't need cutting in half to hold?

Always happy to help with such an important debate

Everyone's opinion is valid

Except in this case where it's a teacake and if you think otherwise your opinion is wrong

I think these threads illustrate quite clearly why the UK voted for brexit

I'm right cos these are the words my ma and pa use

No I'm right because these are the words my mom and pops use

No I'm right because my mum and daddy use these words

No I'm right because in my tribal area we use these words and laugh at the backwards lot who don't

I'm right because my tribe uses these words which is proper and not pretentious posh like your tribe

Xxx

Ps a tea cake has raisins or sultanas in

I believe a cob is a particular type of bread roll, more domed and with a crusty dry surface.

Blimey I can't believe so many have it wrong.

If it's soft it's a muffin.

If it's hard it's a roll

It's a roll unless it's bigger than a roll and more flatter, and then it's a bap.

The only cob is corn on the cob
