Is Sainsbury’s £3.50 SNOW GLOBE Brioche bun Xmas dinner roll topped with stars a step too far?
The budget supermarket has unveiled its festive treats-on-the-go in stores this week and it include a Snow globe sandwich complete with shaking stars for a heafty £3.50
CHRISTMAS is coming and that means it’s festive sandwich season – and this year Sainsbury’s is clearly taking it very seriously.
The supermarket has just launched a festive brioche roll that shouts Christmas louder than a chubby man in a red suit.
Sainsbury's Christmas brioche comes in a Snow Globe shaped packaging and comes with shining edible stars.
The star-topped sandwich, which costs a hefty £3.50, is filled with butter-basted British turkey breast and beechwood smoked streaky bacon.
It also comes with Brussels sprout slaw, British pork stuffing, mayonnaise and a sweet cranberry and port sauce.
The Sun Online is not quite sure we need shining stars with our lunch, but then again Marks & Spencer recently introduced a Christmas pudding smoothie to wash down with our meal - so when it comes to festive ranges it seems like all ideas are welcome.
The Snow Globe is only one of the five festive Sainsbury's sandwiches to hit the shelves this week.
But if you want something more traditional you can go for the supermarket's turkey feast wrap for £2.35 or its classic Brie and Cranberry sandwich for £2.20.
Pret a Manger also unveiled its Christmas menu this week, including its first-ever mince pie flavoured flat white.
LIDL BIT EXCITING Lidl unveils its Christmas food range – and prices start from just 85p
Pret's menu also includes its first ever vegan Christmas sandwich - the "very merry Christmas lunch" sandwich - which actually has more sugar and calories than its traditional turkey sandwich.
Christmas inspired sandwiches also hit shelves in Boots and
Greggs also started selling its popular festive bakes in stores starting from today.
