One First Dater was shocked to learn that not everyone is familiar with the concept of a spice bag.
Dubliners will all be well familiar with the humble glory of a spice bag. A regular feature on most people's weekend takeaway lists, it's the cure for a bad hangover, a case of the blues and just about anything else that may befall you to be honest.

Trying his best to put into words what exactly it encompasses, he went on to say:
"It's basically just like chips and shredded chicken in a bag with like seasoning and spices and stuff like that."
