What’s Your Favourite Sandwich Filling?

What’s Your Favourite Sandwich Filling? Let’s Settle This Once and For All

  Sandwiches are one of the most beloved food inventions of all time. Simple, versatile, and delicious, a sandwich can be anything from a quick snack to a gourmet experience. But when it comes to fillings, opinions run deep. So let’s pose the big question: What’s your favourite sandwich filling?  

The Classic Contenders

Some fillings are tried-and-true champions. They’ve stood the test of time and earned their place in lunchboxes, cafes, and picnics everywhere.

• Tuna Mayo: Creamy, salty, and comfortingly familiar. Add a slice of cucumber for crunch, and it’s a lunchtime hero.
• BLT: The ultimate trio. Crispy bacon, juicy tomato, and crisp lettuce, usually hugged by mayo and toasted bread. A serious fan favourite.
• Egg and Cress: Soft boiled eggs mashed with mayo and a touch of mustard, topped with peppery cress. It’s light, protein-packed, and seriously underrated.
• Ham and Cheese: The humble king of simplicity. Whether served cold or toasted to gooey perfection, it always hits the spot.

 

The New Classics

• Chicken, Avocado & Pesto: A modern café classic. Creamy, herby, and fresh — this one feels just a little fancy.
• Falafel & Hummus: A vegetarian dream. Add some pickled veg and chili sauce, and you’ve got a wrap-worthy combo bursting with bold, satisfying flavour.
• Crisp Sandwich: Yes, just crisps in bread. It’s a nostalgic, crunchy, guilty pleasure.
• Leftover Roast Dinner: Turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, maybe even a little gravy.

 

So… What’s Your Favourite?

Here’s the beauty of a sandwich: there’s no wrong answer. Your favourite might be a childhood staple, a travel discovery, or something you invented on a lazy Sunday. And it says more about you than you might think — are you a comfort-seeker, a flavour explorer, or a traditionalist?
