Only two weeks of sandwich recipes to go! Next week we’ll give you instructions on how to mail us and receive the Backbytes sandwich recipe book (actually it’s an email) by return. You can print it out and solve your Christmas present problems instantly.
This week, we let your relatives have a go. ‘According to my father-in-law, the perfect sandwich is simple – two pieces of bread, cold Brussels sprouts, and Branston pickle,’ says Craig Browning, at Milklink Processing. ‘Apparently it has rather interesting side-effects’.
‘My uncle, when he was young, would apparently only eat bread, marmalade, and hardboiled eggs. So I tried a hardboiled egg and marmalade sandwich once. Tasted fine,’ says Thomas Rushton, at Fox Hayes Solicitors. We wonder about the side-effects of that one, too.
My husband likes mandarin sandwiches with cornflakes instead of crisps to get the extra crunch,’ says Sue Nanninga, at Medical Specialist Group. ‘His dad used to have Angel Delight sandwiches.’
Since the demise of the Branston Pickle factory do you think its wise to encourage more consumption of an endangered pickle? Could you sleep over christmas knowing that you created panic buying, leading to a country wide shortage, causing upset for families everywhere wanting to enjoy the only cheese and pickle they eat all year! Or should I go back to my coffee and backbytes?

Coffee and backbytes sound good.
