Scotland’s ‘worst foods’ ranked including beloved chippy classic — but do you agree?

has released fresh data, rating the 25 most unpopular meals on the Scottish menu.

The country's "worst-rated" foods have been ranked by site - with the top spot going to a classic after-the-pub chippy classic.

With a rating of just 2.7 out of five, the deep-fried pizza is the most unpopular meal on the list.

The indulgent - and calorific - meal usually consists of a cheap cheese and tomato pizza cooked in oil rather than being baked the oven.

For those wanting to go one step further, they can ask the fryer to coat it in batter, turning the deep-fried version into a Pizza Crunch.

Despite celebrity foodies like Nigella Lawson previously singing her praises for the "Pizza Crunch", scran fans did not rate the drunken snack.

TasteAtlas described it as "extremely calorific and unhealthy" as it listed it the most unpopular.

The Dundee cake was second, receiving 3.1 out five in the ratings.

The traditional Scottish almond-studded fruitcake with cherries, sultanas, and candied peel, was only allowed to be baked by Dundonian baker Keiller's up until the 1970s.

It was first recorded in the 19th century, by the marmalade makers, but sadly is not rated well by food fans.

Scotland's favourite hangover cure, the lorne - or square - sausage, was third on the worst-rated chart.

Made with a combination of ground beef, rusk, and various spices such as nutmeg, cilantro, and ground black pepper, the breakfast pack snack is not technically a sausage according to meat boffins.

Although the exact origins of lorne sausage are still murky, it is believed that the dish was named after the region of Lorne in Argyll.

Nowadays, the sausage is incorporated into sandwiches or served as a part of the Scottish version of the full breakfast.

Surprisingly, the deep-fried Mars bar, a modern Scottish invention that has gained international infamy, also made the list at number five.

While it is often viewed as a quirky and indulgent treat, not everyone is a fan of the battered and fried chocolate bar which has became a food cliche.

Other foods that Scots have expressed a strong aversion include mushy meals like stovies and mince and tatties.

These ingredients, often featured in hearty, home-cooked meals, have been divisive topics at dinner tables across the country.

The food experts even included Scotland's national dish, the haggis, on its list of the country's worst foods.

The savoury meal made from sheep organs is traditionally served with neeps and tatties, which also appears on TasteAtlas' roundup.
