So today was the turn of the M and S turkey Feast - I had great expectations of this one. . . .
Marks and Spencer's
Price: £3.00 ( 5p going to shelter)
Rating : 2.5/5
Verdict: Big chunky bits of turkey, reasonable bread but not very soft, good bits of bacon and good ratio of stuffing cranberry and mayo - the turkey was too chunky for my liking which made it quite dry
I am running out of days to Christmas where I can try sandwiches - I must try and get an Asda one on Sunday. .. watch this space for its review
Morrisons
Price: £2:20
Rating: 4/5
Verdict: Lovely soft bread, well balanced filling good amount of turkey,bacon cranberry stuffing and mayo none over powering the other, filling moist not dry. Quite a thick crust. Over all very impressed
Only just over a week to go until Christmas now and I still have Asda, M&S, and co-op to try. . ( and if I come across one, a Gingsters!)
I'm going to have to ramp up the frequency I think. . .
So my quest continues to find the best Christmas turkey sandwich, today I tried a Waitrose one. . . . very well presented but looks were deceiving!
Waitrose
Price: £3.20
Rating: 2.5/5
Verdict: Good proportion of turkey to bacon not much stuffing and only a smidgen of cranberry sauce! Nowhere near enough for my liking! Making sandwich quite dry.
So Christmas is nearly upon us and I love turkey sandwiches!
I wanted to share my love of them with you all and have been reviewing shop bought turkey sandwiches once a week throughout November on FB, however as December draws on I still have several big chains sandwiches to try so my reviews will get more frequent!
Throughout November I tried and rated the following the sandwiches:

Saisburys

Tesco's

Rating 2/5
Verdict: More sausage and cranberry sandwich, totally overpowered the turkey and was not really sure if there was stuffing, although there must have been cos it did taste like a Christmas sandwich! ,bread was ok second half of sandwich one slice was quite dry, not enough cranberry and way too much sausage!
Greggs (Bedworth)
Price: £2.20 ish ( I can't remember I'm afraid)

Verdict: Good amount of turkey bacon and stuffing, plenty of cranberry compliments well, right amount of mayo to bind all together, turkey moist. Bread nice and soft although could have been a tad softer over all very good!
