Greggs has done it again – their new sausage roll is causing quite the stir. As a self-proclaimed pastry enthusiast, I couldn’t resist giving it a try. Here’s why this humble snack might just be the best thing to come out of a British bakery in years.
The First Bite
From the moment you unwrap it, the aroma of buttery pastry and seasoned sausage hits you. The golden-brown exterior promises crunch, and it delivers. The first bite is a perfect balance of flaky layers and a succulent, well-seasoned filling.
What Sets It Apart
Unlike other sausage rolls, Greggs’ version doesn’t skimp on flavour or quality. The pastry is light yet sturdy, avoiding the greasiness that plagues lesser versions. The sausage meat is generously herbed, with a hint of pepper that lingers pleasantly.
The Verdict
For under £2, this is a steal. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or need a savoury pick-me-up, Greggs’ sausage roll is a reliable choice. It’s no wonder queues form the moment these fresh batches hit the shelves.
Final score: 9/10 – A near-perfect snack that’s worth the hype.
