I'm hoping doing this blog won't effect christmas day when I sit down to a home cooked Christmas Dinner made by my lovely misses and I say, "I don't fancy turkey, can we have goose instead?!!? So to keep you guessing, today I have not gone for turkey but the M&S Aberdeen Angus rare roast beef & ale chutney. Now, to me it doesn't sound christmassy, but it is in christmas packaging sponsored heavily buy Help Shelter. The Ingredients are the beef with red onion & Arron ale chutney, mustard mayonnaise, caramalised shallots and mixed salad leaves on white bread. I love all the ingredients in this sandwich, but I think they went a step too far in putting in the mustard mayo. Why do sandwich makers always have to add mustard or horseradish to a beef sarnie, a good red onion marmalade does the job just nicely! I've a good mind to set up another blog titled "NO more horseradish or mustard in sandwiches"!!! On a dinner plate you can obviously have it on the side, but there is no getting past the overpowering flavour of the horseradish or mustard in a sarnie is there...is there!!! I must admit I got used to the flavours in the second part and enjoyed it more so I'll give this 8/10 and it certainly filled me up. It has 565 calories and 4.6 sat fat, so quite high, but hey its christmas!!!!! One other thing on the pull tab it says "pull the tab to open this pack up into a handy tray" I like this, they know what their market wants and mostly its us people who grab a quick sarnie and eat at the desk (less washing up to do)!
