The Sandwich I Mocked—And Then Loved: A Humble Apology to M&S Food

From Doubter to Devotee
I’ve had many memorable food experiences in my life. The first time I had sushi. The street pizza I ate in Naples. That time I drank hot chocolate in Belgium that made me question my life choices.

And yes—this ranks up there. I’m not being ironic. I’m not exaggerating.

This M&S sandwich was, genuinely, a highlight. It was unexpected, delightful, and oddly emotional. It reminded me that sometimes, we need to let go of our preconceived ideas and simply try the thing. Especially when it’s wrapped in brioche.

To M&S: I Owe You an Apology
So, to the chefs, creators, and bold minds at M&S Food who dared to make this sandwich a reality—I apologize. I judged too quickly. I mocked something beautiful before giving it a chance.

Thank you for proving me wrong in the most delicious way possible.

Final Thoughts: Don’t Knock It Till You Try It
If you see one of these sandwiches on the shelf—don’t walk past it. Don’t take a photo and share it with a sarcastic caption (like I did). Don’t assume it’s just a PR gimmick. Take it. Buy it. Eat it.

Then come back here and tell me I’m wrong.

I’ll be on a park bench somewhere, enjoying another one. Quietly. Gratefully.

And perhaps, saying a silent thank you to a sandwich that reminded me that sometimes, the strangest ideas lead to the sweetest surprises.
