A floury bread product unique to Waterford city and its environs. Here is the story of it's origin by a Waterford legend called tony McGrath

*** THE ORIGIN OF THE BLAA ***

A Waterford pilgrim (whose name is long since lost) was travelling through de holy land circa 33AD. after many adventures (and misadventures) it just so happened dat he ended up in Jerusalem on de night of de last supper of our Lord. Tired and hungry from all his travels, he came upon an Inn where a small feast was taking place. Being a stranger and with scarcely a few shekels tew his name he decided tew gate crash de party. He hid behind a curtain while de bread was being divided. Craftily he slid one hand out from his hiding place and grabbed a piece of bread. Peter, one of de guests, saw him and grabbed his hand and with an almighty roar declared, "THAT'S BLASPHEMY," to which the Déise boy responded "g’way outa dat boy, dat blaas FER ME" and he ran from the room with de sacred bread wrapped up in his blue and white shirt. On returning tew his native Déise he did his best tew reproduce de bread and de closest ting he got tew it was today’s famous Waterford Blaa.

"Givvus de dogs end of dat crusty blaa wudja or I'll bust the head off ya!"
