If you’re watching your waistline, Morrisons’ offering is the one to opt for. Amongst all four sandwiches I sampled, it was the only one that came in under four hundred calories, a rarity in shop-bought sandwiches these days.
Price: £2.80 / Meal deal price: £4.
Score: 7/10.
Sainsbury’s
Finally, we come to Sainsbury’s. The highest praise I can give is that this was the closest of all four supermarket sandwiches I tried to a homemade version.
As you might be able to tell from the photo, the Sainsbury’s version of the sandwich is much more uniform and neatly assembled, which was the first thing that distinguished it. After passing the eye test, it also came out on top in terms of flavour as the ham, in my view, was of a far superior quality than its rivals.
Its only drawback was the cost, but considering how much better it was than the alternatives, I believe the extra pennies were certainly justified.
Price: £3.15 / Meal deal price: £3.75
