IF ONE TAKEAWAY meal is going to be remembered as the defining Irish dish of 2015 – it’s going to be the spice bag.
Such is its popularity, a Spice Bag Appreciation Society was set up on Facebook:
It has over 2000 members and it serves as a place for people to post photos of their beloved spice bags and post their own reviews.
It has some strict rules though. Like:
Only pictures of Spice Bags / Boxes are permitted in this group.
Pictures must be of your own Spice Bag.
Pictures must clearly show the contents of the Spice Bag.
Your chosen vendor/price must be posted in order to facilitate grading.
Pictures will be rated on a scale of 1 – 10
Curry sauce is optional but not advised as it can contaminate the contents of the Spice Bag.
This is an admirable commitment to spice bag quality in Ireland.
The submissions are truly spectacular
A religious experience
Showing the perils of living the spice bag life
“Enough spice to keep your lips tingling throughout.”
Its description sums up why it’s a special place for spice bag lovers – and why you should request to join immediately:
