REVIEW: Christmas New Yorker Inspired by Sainsbury’s

Christmas New Yorker Inspired. What a natural sounding name for a sandwich, it just rolls off the tongue! So here we are, with Sainsbury’s second attempt to crack Christmas Sandwich of the Year.

REVIEW: Turkey with Pigs Under Blankets by Sainsbury’s

It’s been a busy day at Christmas Sandwich Towers. Got up at 9.30, had a shower, did some last minute prep for an interview at 11, then treated myself with a trip to the Post Office (sandwiches, but no Christmas ones), Iceland (no sandwiches) and then Sainsbury’s. And what did they have in Sainsbury’s? Two…

REVIEW: 3 Course Festive Feast by Lidl

Well look what Lidl have gone and done. When this blog started (8 fucking years ago), I had a rule that I was only going to review turkey sandwiches and I have only broken that rule in the vegan year (2018) or when I have to pick something else out of desperation. Well today kind…

SPONSORED REVIEW: Turkey Tikka with Onion Bhaji by Tesco

“But you’ve already done Tesco”. Quiet you entitled swine. Here I am, (almost) everyday spending my own hard-earned cash on sandwiches for a couple of people to read about and yet you still demand more from me. Well, that’s all about to change! I don’t need you any more, I’ve made it. For the first…

REVIEW: Christmas Lunch by Greggs
It’s the sandwich people (1 person) have been asking for, and it’s been hard to find because Greggs seem to sell out of everything by 11.58am every day. But on Friday night, I walked past Greggs at about 6pm and what did I see? Not one, but two Christmas sandwiches! So I got one and…

REVIEW: Turkey Sandwich by City Cruises
Well, well, well, this is a surprise entry. On Saturday we took my girlfriend’s mum out for an afternoon tea cruise down the Thames and when the sandwiches, cakes and scones came out in the standard stacked plates they were accompanied by a sneaky little side plate – “and this is the Christmas turkey sandwich”.…
