Perhaps you go to the wrong vendors! In this country, although you can,
of course, buy white-bread sandwiches, almost all the "healthy eating"
ones are on wholemeal bread, or other tasty varieties.

I agree - in fact I think it's quite rare to see pre-packaged
sandwiches in white bread in the UK, probably because very few people
seem to like them.

Ever noticed how if you try to buy sliced bread in the supermarket
towards the end of the day, there's stacks of white left but all the
wholemeal has gone?

Interesting. Not the case in the US, at least not in my
stodgy New England neighborhood. In more upscale places,
probably better bread.

I'm in Illinois and we have all the new salads - haven't tried the
fiesta yet but heard it is very good. Maybe they're rolling them out
regionally in the US.

Bear in mind that the original poster is from the UK, and we don't have
that sort of salad in McD's here - just a vile chicken job that has more
calories, and fewer nutrients, than a Big Mac! (I'd rather have the Big
Mac, I think!)


Wasn't aware the salads weren't available over there. Sorry.

How is it that you lost so much and what did you do details please.
