What does BAP mean in Scrabble?
noun
British
A soft round bread roll, floury on top.
The bap is a Scottish and northern breakfast roll that spread south with the bacon sandwich: soft crust, open crumb, a dusting of flour and no attempt at crispness. Ordering one draws a small map of the country, since bap, barm, cob, batch and teacake all name overlapping things and no two towns agree where the boundaries run.
