What million pounds business idea are you willing to "give away" because you can't ever see yourself trying it?

For me, it would have to be "obanyaki". It's a Japanese treat made of a batter that contains a tasty filling. Traditionally it would be red or green bean paste... 1/3
... however I have seen places selling savoury ones with things like lasagna, teriyaki chicken, ham and cheese, potato and cheese, and dozens of other fillings.

They're hot, easy to eat on the move, and easyish to churn out in volume. See video below 2/3
I could see this sort of thing catching on outside football grounds or similar in winter. Might take a bit of educating people, but it could catch on. Not sure what the costs would be here, but in Tokyo they sell for about 80p-£1.30 each depending on size/filling. 3/3
Added: here's a better video. Fillings (for the uninitiated) are red bean paste, and white bean paste. But as I say, you could put all sorts of things in them. I am not suggesting for one second that the traditional Japanese ones would fit Western tastes.
