    Loved the New Orleans Sandwich from Greggs, don't think they make them anymore.

    Can't remember the last time I had anything from Gregg's. Gave up hope when they binned off macaroni pies.

    You can get all the authentic Greggs stuff from Iceland now at a fraction of the cost

    Obviously flight costs are an issue but if you planned a holiday you could just bring a load back

    Anytime I've tried the sausage rolls from Iceland they've been dung. Maybe need to undercook them to get that authentic soggy texture. Best sausage rolls going as well, and the pies on a buttered roll :35:

    Don't start me on the yum yums and doughnuts anaw. Tremendous.

    Sausage rolls. Preheat the oven to 180 including the baking tray. Batter the sausage rolls in for 22 minutes, middle shelf.

    Take them out let them cool then fire in the microwave for 45 seconds. Boom. Authentic soggy sausage rolls.

    You've obviously done detailed research, love your diligence

    Sausage and egg roll and a coffee for £2 is all I ever get from greggs and that's rarely

    Feckin hate greggs. Everything they make tastes just rank to me. And they have killed off all the local bakers shops just about. Such as james marshal bakers in stonehouse and strathaven. Which was in both towns for near on 100 years and brilliant (would kill for one of there steak and sausage pies again lol) as greggs could sell everything so cheap it closed them down pretty soon after they opened.

    Worked in Greggs for 20 years.
    I may be a fat * but it's not from eating any of their stuff.
    I knew what went into it. Wouldn't touch the stuff.
    Except the doughnuts.:84:

    Sick of getting a sausage roll in the morning getting back to the van and the thing is stone cold . Would have thought Gregs would have sorted out the basics before opening a drive through .
