    Why wouldn't you?

    I never see the point of adding something wet to something crisp, it seems to defeat the object. (I also wouldn't eat gravy with fish.)

    OH loves gravy with fish (and curry sauce with fish) (and baked beans with fish).

    I wonder if that is a georgraphical thing?

    If I have gravy or curry sauce on my chips, I don't have vinegar - but I do with mushy peas.

    Just thought I'd share that with you. :D

    I have vinegar on everything chip shop related! Love it!

    So you'd never have gravy on your roast potatoes? That is of course if you eat roasties!

    The taste of something crisp turning into something soggy is lovely lol.

    I try to eat the crispy bits while they're still crispy and keep the gravy for the soft insides.

    (I don't have vinegar on chips either.)

    Why would you?
    Why gravy on chips? I think it depends what the chips are served with. Chippies where I grew up used to serve pork & chips, the pork being braised in rich, dark gravy. Sublime, especially with the optional stuffing.

    Fish and chips, on the other hand is just wrong with gravy. The proper accompaniment is mushy peas, and not the tinned variety but proper ones soaked overnight and stewed for hours.

    The ultimate chippy supper, especially after a night out, has always been faggots, chips and peas for me though. Here you get the double bonus of gravy and mushy peas. Bliss!:)
