£3.69 for a sandwich? Be cheaper to have your stomach removed.

I've never been in a Starbucks in my life. I'd consider £4 a bit extreme for a sarnee but then I'm poor. Pretty but poor.

I just wonder what goes into one of these sandwiches to make it four quid. I mean, as organic as it might be, a McDonalds is only £3.99. Unless you go large in which case you're just a lard ball.xXx

I have never tried a MacDonalds, normal or large. Having tried some of the other Duchy originals, which I found to be delicious, I am sure the sandwiches will be worth every penny or four.![]()

BeatrixFan if you like McDonald's we have another chain called Burger King. Boy those hamburgers and fries I just love but the calories oh my goodness!!!.
I hope in a few years to visit Great Britian. I really would love to try Prince Charles' foods. I did hear he might bring his food to California and maybe there I will get a chance to taste it. ![]() |

We have Burger King here. I like Burger King burgers and McDonalds fries so I never get exactly what I want. Unless I go to KFC. Or Wendys - but they closed the local Wendys. And I cried.
You can order Duchy stuff online you know?

Yeah, I am sure that Duchy ships out all over Europe, but not sure about the US. They will ship to the US too? I always wanted to try especially the Duchy biscuits. There are so many rave reviews about them.
US prices are high now because the dollar value is low. I bet the Duchy sandwich would convert to around $5-6.

The Cider is to die for, mixed with a drop of Whisky liqueur! (hic.....)
The soups are also delicious, although I have not tried the Celeriac, Bacon & Leek.All the biscuits are weight gainingly superb and I defy anyone to eat only 1 or 2! ![]()

They are, but they were expensive even before the exchange rate tanked. I dread to think what they'll cost now.
