        I would murder my whole family for a $5 sandwich meal deal in the states. Even fast food by my work is double that, and you’re still only getting America-quality food packed with sugars and preservatives.

          As an American who spent time living in the UK - ‘sandwich’ is a generous description of what you get in a £4 meal deal. Some meal deals have things made from actual food but good luck finding one of those at that price.

              Yeah I’m usually more interested in nutrients than calories. Otherwise I’d just have a Guinness for lunch

      Meal deals are rarely ever decent. They’re enough to get you through the working day if you sit at a desk all day.
