The Best Packaged Sandwich I’ve Ever Eaten

It may be only a Marks and Spencer egg and watercress sandwich made with gluten-free bread, but in my nearly sixty-seven years I can’t remember a sandwich from a packet that tasted so good.

The Best Packaged Sandwich I’ve Ever Eaten

The bread was just right and the filling complimented it well. The only problem, as ever with this type of sandwich was opening it with my gammy hand.

I shall be eating a lot more, if they’re always this good.

Could Marks and Spencer have an agenda here?

If they made all their gluten-free sandwiches so good, would this increase sales at the expense of gluten-rich ones? So would this allow them to make all of their luxury and expensive sandwiches gluten-free, so that they can cut the cost of manufacture and only have one range!

I doubt it, but they are so good, you start thinking of ulterior reasons for the quality.

  1. The whole of the new M&S range is excellent, they do quiche, scotch egg, breaded ham, lovely breads, and some excellent cakes, including a gluten free chocolate celebration cake. None of those foods are things I eat a lot of, but occasionally I will buy a quiche or scotch egg to go with salad as a change and we tried the celebration cake – great thing is my husband enjoyed it too, and he normally avoids GF food – he likes the quiche as well

      I’ll definitely try the quiche.
