Fast food fans! It's the news you have been waiting for...the Chinese take-away is now doing a munchy box.
The traditional munchy box which really started in chippys, Indian take-aways and kebab shops has evolved into something we have let's face it wanted for so long.
The munchy box started life in a pizza box and typically contains some or all of the following items, kebab meat, fried chicken, pizza, chicken tikka, chips onion rings, pakora, naan bread, garlic bread, coleslaw and sauces.
Now a Chinese somewhere in Scotland has been genius enough to invent this:
Each chinese take-away seems to be offering a different variety of munchy box. But the majority have chips, curry sauce, ribs and chicken balls.
The news has unsurprisingly sent Scots into a frenzy because we just love a munchy box.
People are delighted that they can now get a munchy box in the Chinese...

Others are questioning the split of portions between the munchy box components...

Expats are even missing the home comforts
It's a strange feeling missing Scotland.. And I'm pissed off they invented a Chinese munchy box when I'm not there to eat it.
