    I find it utterly hilarious that a bacon sandwich is for one classified as a classic british food, but also tops the chart above some real originals like tika masala or the scotch egg.

      No lettuce? No tomato? Just bacon between two slices of bread? If that makes it so high up I’d like to see them try an actual BLT.

        The glory and purity of the bacon sandwich is ruined by this multicoloured, wet, squishy foodstuff.

        Also, a bacon sandwich is a hot sandwich. BLT is a cold sandwich.

        A BLT is a good, but entirely different thing to a bacon sandwich.

        Bacon sarnies are served hot on a buttered roll or toast with red or brown sauce.

        Sort of like the American grilled cheese, it ceases to be what it is as soon as you mess with any aspect of the formula.
