The Scoobie Snack is a hamburger sold primarily at the maggie snack bar in Glasgow, Scotland. It is a popular fast food item with students.[1]

Composition[]

The Scoobie Snack consists of a hamburger, a sliced sausage, a bacon rasher, a potato scone, a fried egg and a slice of processed cheese, all contained within a floured hamburger bun and accompanied by tomato ketchup and brown sauce. Fried onions are also offered as an optional extra. [2]

The Scoobie Snack, because of the sausage, cheese, bacon and egg, takes similar resemblance to a breakfast roll but is often eaten at lunchtime.

The Scooby Snack's invention is accredited to The Maggie Snack Bar, a food truck located for over 50 years at the intersection of Byres Road and Great Western Road.[3]

Derivatives[]

A derivative, the Super Scooby, was invented by The Jolly Fryer café in Bristol in 2009. It consists of four quarter-pound beef patties, eight rashers of bacon, eight slices of cheese, 12 onion rings and six slices of tomato in a sesame seed bun, accompanied by salad, lettuce, barbecue sauce and mayonnaise.[citation needed]

Standing eight inches tall, the sandwich contains 2,645 kilocalories (11,070 kJ), which is more than the recommended daily intake of an adult male. The sandwich costs GB£10 and comes with chips; if both the burger and chips are consumed in one sitting, customers are given a free Diet Coke.[4][needs update]
