Toast sandwich is UK's 'cheapest meal'

[pseudonym]

Only costing 7 1/2 pence, never tried one myself, £200 if you can beat that.

BBC News - Toast sandwich is UK

i'd have thought a slice of bread and butter would come in at a third that price. if "toast sandwich" qualifies as a meal, then slice should too.

Heard this guy on radio this morning. Utter bollocks.

Eat an apple or banana

This toast sandwich is a revelation and sounds delicious. What a great alternative to bread and butter or even buttered toast.

A dish that combines toast and bread, two distinctly different culinary experiences but sharing a common origin, does that count as fusion food?

bloody hell they will have us doing handstands in buckets of cow shit next

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

it depends on what they count as a "meal"

after long periods of being a student/unemployed i've definitely eaten (what i would describe as) meals that would cost less than that

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

in fact, the same meal without the butter, salt & pepper would be cheaper

done, where can i collect my £200?

Dust, anybody? No? Dust!

Beans on toast?

Is an egg a meal ?
If it is that's got to be cheap


Speaking of food have a look at some of this blokes videos, may not be for you but I found some of them pretty amusing

First thing I did after reading this yesterday was make 2 rounds. It was rubbish.

What's wrong with 8p noodles?

Well Gully I will go out on a limb here and suggest it is the original (and still the best) fusion food. A genuine class leader amongst wheat based meals.
