I’ve put mince in a sandwich before, so lasagne seems a logical step.
A quick google seems to confirm a lasagne sandwich is definitely not a one-off. Although the ones I'm looking at have it as a grilled cheese setup.
Spaghetti Bolognese on a jacket potato. Trust me, I'm a professional.
I’ve bought something I’ve never had, seen or even heard of before, and I’m very excited to try it:

Absolutely not.
Wouldn't that just be Dr Pepper?
Tastes like Christmas.
Would be good with a bit of rum or brandy, I bet.
Just finished at Trishna and thought it was absolutely brilliant, but my god I've never been served so much food in my life. I think I may die.
Realised I was old when we went to a cocktail bar after (Kwant) and it was full of what appeared to be 12 year old Asian children dressed as anime characters.
They all just sat on their phones on social media not talking to each other. Most of them had headphones in.
Sounds like it was full of Kwants
The waiters were so done with their shit. At one point one of them snapped their fingers to get a waiter's attention and he just held one finger up telling them to wait without even looking at them. :D
When we left he apologised for the slow/poor service (the service we received was neither); it was very clear he was actually apologising that the bar was full of, as you say, Kwants.

To its credit it actually tastes like what it claims to be, it's just a combination nobody should have come up with.
Saw that the other day. Oreos are fucking rank as it is. They taste like packaging.
I tried that today.
I had heard that a lot of people couldn't taste the Oreo just a faint vanilla but I absolutely got Oreo.
I actually didn't mind it but I can't see myself ever buying it again.
That stuff is, unsurprisingly, abominable.
It's an interesting little marketing gimmick. You can also get Coke-flavoured Oreos, which taste like exactly what it says on the tin.

'Partridge Pepper Fry' looks good but sounds like Alan's motivational talk to himself before his debut appearance on QI.
I'll need an example of a woke filling before passing judgment.
Avocado
Is avocado still woke given it's ecological credentials?
If this is just an expression of disgust at Pret's menu, or perhaps the wider concept of Pret itself, then I'm probably on board with that.
Avocados from Mexico are glorious. The things that they sell as avocados in France should rightfully be called woke and vilified.
I've sought out the article so you don't have to, the following are confirmed therein as being woke fillings:
- Chicken
- Continental cheese (defined as anything except cheddar)
- Avocado, peppers, chillies or olives (these are labelled as 'upmarket extras')
- Mayonnaise
Cutting off your crusts is apparently woke as well. I'm with the golden oldies on that one. You shouldn't be allowed to eat bread if you don't eat the crust.
Avocados are about as woke as I am and the crusts are a glorious part of any loaf. As per the cafe discussion earlier, absolutely not when it's full crust mind.
Regardless of their political leanings, Avocado's taste like shit.
Nonce alert.
Avocado on its own tastes like grassy butter, but if you put it in a sandwich it becomes nondescript fibre and fat, which can only be good.
They probably shouldn't be sold in the UK though. The regularity with which I see a crate full of them that are obviously inedible/shite in Tesco is ridiculous.
Avocado is fine with rashers. Hold the avocado.
Can't be worse than 99% of the avocados you get in England.Quote:

Waitrose is your only reasonable chance of a halfway decent avocado in an English supermarket, and even then the standard is pretty low.
Isn't there a woke alternative anyway using pea protein or something?
I don't mind the taste but can't be doing with the texture, it's like eating a baby's liver.
A delicacy in France.
I like it when it's one of many ingredients on a burger or sandwich.
Even here most supermarkets sell shit avocados. Need to buy them in Walmart and they must come from Mexico. Not surprised many of you think that they are bad. Need to try the real thing.
Back in the day we had avocado and lime trees in the yard. They were so good. :drool:
I like avocado and eat it fairly often now (good fats and a lot of fibre).
I get them at a local "farm" shop (it's called farm fresh, no idea where the farm they get their stuff is from) and even then they can be a bit hit or miss.
I've tested loads and they've felt and looked perfect in store and when I go to eat them it's a lottery whether they're actually good or over ripe with brown flesh.
Never had a "proper" avocado that Pepe has had and I imagine the ones I get are still miles behind them.
The green skinned 'fuerte' ones are miles better than the hass ones, imo, but sadly the latter seem to be almost ubiquitous in supermarkets
By definition doesn't this make a Coronation Chicken Sandwich the definition of woke. A dish made for the Queen.Quote:

I was expecting them to be dead against brown bread.

Even the same foods can have different connotations. I'm thinking a fish finger sandwich I could make now from the freezer section at Aldi versus a woke fish finger sandwich served for £17.95 with tartare sauce and pea puree in the gourmet pub up the road.
No one is safe.
You just bought the Frozen Fish Fingers from a German supermarket. Woke.
Avocado in BLT :drool:
Aldi was founded by 2 Nazi soldiers the year after the war ended. Let him eat his far right sandwich in peace.Quote:

I looked up Lidl's founder too and his surname is Schwarz, so I thought we had a Jew, but no. Just a boring Christian. Stick your fish fingers up your arse, lad.
