Following the success of their pre-packed jam sandwich, those purveyors of high cuisine have come up with...

If the bread is buttered and fresh then this has the makings of a decent snack.

So it seems, the bread is indeed buttered, and the crisps are in a seperate packet for you to add yourself. Not bad for 60p

Tuna & mayonaise paste, pack of salt & vinegar crisps, scrunch the bread down on top of the crisps. Lovely.

I bought one of these the other day as a joke to show m'colleagues.

The 'butter' is only on one side of the bread and the crisps were pretty low quality and crushed already.

About what you can expect for 60p then.

The jam sandwich war was started by M&S!

The problem with this is that unlike a fish finger sandwich (which always worked best with Birds Eye's finest on Mighty White) the crisp sandwich benefits from being ponced up as much as possible: crinkle-cut crisps in a freshly-baked baguette is delicious and a world away from soggy supermarket own-brand ready salted on a limp, drooping piece of margarine-slathered wholemeal.

As far as junk food goes, I'm still waiting for KFC to bring the Double Down to the UK.

Mighty White is fine. But Birds Eye's finest are not right... they aren't fish fingers. Anything described as "100% fillet" is simply not a fish finger!!

Wholemeal!!???!?! A crisp sandwich works best with normal white bread like Hovis, proper butter and ready salted crisps.

Nah.
Crusty white bread, peanut butter and then either salt and vinegar crisps or bacon frazzles.
