5.4/10
Between two slices of malted brown bread was a not so merry
Christmas sandwich. The marinated roast British turkey tasted very overcooked,
dry and gave quite a bit of resistance when trying to bite into it. Whatever it
was marinated in was not at all noticeable when tasting it. The texture of the
smoked British bacon was very rubbery, as well being very tasteless, and was
impossible to tear apart without bringing the whole lot out, which caused other
fillings of the sandwich to fall out all over the place. Obviously Britain is
not the place to get your sandwich meat. Also, its rubbery texture meant that
it took quite some time to chew on before swallowing. The next Scrooge of an
ingredient was the very tasteless pork and chestnut stuffing. This had not been
spread across the sandwich at all, instead was clumped right in the middle,
which made the centre of the sandwich very dense and difficult to eat around. Then
came the spiced cranberry chutney. This did not have the substance of standard
chutney, it was very thin and watery which seeped into the bread, causing the
sandwich to be soggy. As well it did not taste spiced at all, and was very
sweet, and tasted more of strawberry jam.
On the whole, I would not recommend this Grinch
sandwich to anyone looking for a festive snack, you will just be full of
Christmas disappointment, and wish the ghost of Christmas future would have
warned you before buying it. Although some money got donated towards homeless shelters when purchasing this sandwich, so that gave me some satisfaction.
