An investigation into pre-packaged sandwiches sold by major chains shows that some sandwiches can contain as much salt as you would find in 18 packets of crisps and more fat than a Big Mac. Will this make you think twice about buying a "healthier option" sandwiches in future?

  1. nope


  2. Yes OK  , but one I make myself.   Bought ones are awful.  I will have crusty bread,  mature cheese and a beetroot  and pickles   if thats OK

  3. My boyfriend makes my sandwiches for me in the morning so I never have to get a pre packed sandwich.  I am a lucky girl :D

  4. yes!  i always try to make my own...or else i get a subway or go to a deli where they make it up fresh infront of you as i see whats going into it.  the cals and fat that are in premade sandwhiches are stupid!

    p.s...make sure you watch the dispatches sandwhiches unwrapped documentry on channel 4 at 8pm on monday...it shows all the gross stuff that happens in sandwhich factories!  it will put you off for life!

  5. "Subway's six inch Meatball Marinara contains 4.7g of salt  -  the equivalent of 11.75 packs of ready salted crisps.

    But its 12inch version contains a staggering 7.2g of salt "

    Course it does - that's because it's twice as long, you fools! I love common sense. :-D

  6. what investigation? nutritional facts are printed on the back. there is no conspiracy. the nutritional facts are accurate.

  7. I make my own.

    Today it's a TLC (Turkey, Lettuce & Cucumber)

  8. Aww, and there was me thinking you were offering to make me a sarnie...

  9. probably not! where else are you going to get sandwiches from exept making them your selves? cant help it! lol

    =D xx

  10. avocado with chess and ham tasty

  11. I was just looking for a snack.......lol

  12. How about a salad it work for me

  13. no, Quiznos is my  boy

  14. No - I am bored of sandwiches - maybe a pot noodle for a change then

  15. yes

  16. Yea pre-packed sandwiches will have to have lots of preservatives like salt but I very rarely go for them. Local sandwich shops who make them fresh now thats a good lunch.

    As my friend once told me

    "All men desire power...and occasionally a good sandwich"

    Dunno where he got it from :)

  17. No, l'll still eat sandwiches. l'd rather die w/ a full stomach.

  18. YUK

  19. any kind of fast food stinks.  Make your own

  20. Not out of that machine, I'll tell ya.  Only thing on it was butter, for crying out loud.  I need mustard with my ham!

  21. I can't even imagine what they are doing to get THAT much salt in a butty!

    I went to subway for the first time a couple of weeks ago and it is so stressful, as I was herded along the queue I had to make a decision every 5 seconds over which bread , which butter, which add-ons!

    And do you know what? It was rubbish... :-(
