Stonner

Glasgow's contribution to culinary excellence has at least exceeded the deep fried Mars bar. Now: the Stonner (hat tip to Fred Kiesche). A whopping 46g of fat and twice the calories of a Big Mac are produced by "a pork sausage wrapped in doner kebab meat coated in batter and deep fried." Queue the publicly funded outrage.

The new kebab has been blasted by health experts. Michael Lean, professor of human nutrition at Glasgow Royal Infirmary, said: "This type of thing leads to poor health. It doesn't take a lot of common sense to see that it is a stupid thing to be producing."
