Unhappy Sandwich #2

posted by [personal profile] bugshaw at 01:28pm on 18/02/2010
Remember the meatball sandwich which contained cheese but didn't list it in the otherwise comprehensive packaging?

They've done it again. I've had to avoid my old faithful duck wraps as they're now buttered (and labelled as such), but was pleased to find a solitary milk-free sandwich - salmon and mayo, nice and moist, doesn't need butter or margarine, and there is none on the ingredients list.

And yet, when I eat it it tastes a little buttery, and I peel the bread back to find yellow smearings on it which have squished on to the lettuce. Definitely not mayo. Definitely not on the ingredients list or the allergens list.

This time I'll keep the packaging and write to the company (again? Must check my old emails) instead of returning it to the canteen. Dear Daily Bread, it is super that all your products are hand made, but could you endeavour that people pay a little more attention to what they're supposed to be including?

Benugo is really bad on this: it lists the ingredients in two places, on the front, advertising all the fruit etc, then in tiny print on the back mentions it contains milk.

That's what I was thinking, bizarre.
And dreadful working practice, they know that people have intolerances, let alone preferences which mean that listing ingredients is important.

My husband. He also puts butter between cheese and crackers.

The first is madness.

In the USA, Cheryl brought to my attention the Great Dill Pickle Conspiracy (which must be backed by Archer-Daniels-Midland and the makers of the corn syrup and yellow food dye that does into most commercially-made dill pickles) to insert dill pickles into all sandwich-like things without telling you that they are there.

For me, it's the presence of mayonnaise (which I hate) on hamburgers, particularly when I specifically request that the burgers be served plain, or "ketchup and mustard only." I've taken to telling servers that I'm allergic to mayo, which isn't true, but gets them to pay attention (fear of lawsuits from customers keeling over) more so than "I don't like it."

I don't get anaphalactic shock, but I did have an apoplectic episode :-)
