You can now get your hands on the iconic takeaway staple right here in Leeds City Centre .
Pour yourself a cold glass of water, because it's about to get real salty up in here.
The spice bag is an Irish delicacy that is often devoured after a few Guinness on the streets of Dublin, for example.
It consists of shredded and battered chicken, chips, onions and peppers - all deep fried, loaded into a bag and tossed in lashings of salt and pepper seasoning.

Oh, and of course dipped or lathered in a sauce of your choosing. The classic being curry sauce, obviously.
It's never been available to buy in Leeds before, until now.
Located inside Trinity Kitchen, Doles Dirty Bags are serving up...well, dirty bags I suppose.

They're bringing the spice bags to the people of Leeds and we're absolutely over the moon that they are.
They've got a couple of options for you to choose from, including the classic chicken spice bag as well as the garlic spice bag which has lashings of garlic butter inside - yum.
There's also a BBQ beef spice bag as well as a vegan tofu one, so absolutely no one has to miss out on the deliciousness.

They're also serving up a selection of burgers if that's what you fancy.
But if you want to sample a spice bag for yourself, then you're going to want to be quick as Doles Dirty Bags will only be cooking inside Trinity Kitchen until Sunday 29 March.
So have a couple pints down the road at Whitelock's and get yourself to Dole's, we assure you they'll sort you out good and proper.
Action Bronson cancels Leeds gig for a second time, and it's safe to say fans aren't happy.
Ariyan Arslani, better known by his stage name Action Bronson, is an American rapper, chef and TV personality with a huge following.
The star was meant to perform at Project House last Tuesday 30 June but the show was cancelled the morning of, and subsequently the venue released an updated date of Tuesday 7 July.
It seems fans of Bronson may be experiencing some deja vu, as the gig has yet again been cancelled with short notice.
Except this time, no rescheduled date has been given.

The statement by Project House reads: "We have been informed by Action Bronson's team that regrettably, due to an ongoing illness he will be unable to perform at Project House this evening.
"We're incredibly sorry to be cancelling at such short notice. We had hoped last week's postponements would allow for sufficient recovery time but sadly, that has not been the case. Action is as disappointed as we are and we'd like to wish him all the best. Refunds will be issued from the point of purchase."
And it's fair to say the comments are...interesting, with fans far from happy about a second cancellation.
One comment reads: "Well enough to play two shows in London and one in the Netherlands, but just can’t seem to shake a cold to get to Leeds."
Whilst another disappointed fan commented: "He’s not ill guys! Obviously not a knock on the lovely folks at project house, but that’s a bullshit reason he and his team have come up with for insurance purposes!"
