Waitrose shopper furious after biting into sandwich and getting nasty surprise | UK | News

A woman who was excited to tuck into what she thought was a ‘Salt Beef and Emmental’ sandwich from Waitrose was in for a nasty surprise when she took her first bite. The woman took to social media platform X to rage about her experience with a Waitrose Christmas sandwich after excitedly tucking into it while on her way to an event.

Having thought she bought a ‘Salt Beef and Emmental’ sandwich, she was shocked to discover she had been fooled by the packaging that actually read ‘Salt Beet and Emmental’.

The vegetarian sandwich contained a beetroot filling, combined with emmental cheese, mustard, gherkins and salad.

Writing on X, she vented at her mistake. Under the username @Ginger_Tucci, she wrote: « Don’t mean to be dramatic, but this was possibly the worst day of my life. I quickly grabbed this on my way to an event thinking ‘mmm, salt beef & emmental’ wasn’t I in for a nasty surprise?

« I now have serious beef with Waitrose, which is ironic as my sandwich certainly lacked it. »

And while she called it the « worst day of my life », people in the comments were also fooled by the packaging.

One person wrote: « Took me so long to realise what was wrong with it, I read salt beef over and over before realising it was a T. »

Another said: « I did not understand this for a long time. Someone deserve sacking ». She went on to call it a « crime against sandwich fillings ».

A Waitrose spokesperson said: « It looks like we’ve caused some real beef here! While this sandwich is proving popular – especially with veggie customers – for a meatier flavour, we’d recommend our Salt Beef & Mustard Mayo, or our award-winning Christmas Pigs Under Blankets sandwiches. We’ve worked hard on our Christmas range, so whatever the option, we’re confident we’ll beet the competition! »
