Default M&S LGBT sandwich


Supermarket Under Fire Over "Gay Sandwich"

[Marks & Spencer have revealed
their take on an inclusive sandwich
by adding in guacamole to help spell
out the acronym
LGBT - Lettuce, Guacamole, Bacon and Tomato.
The supermarket are facing accusations
of exploiting LGBT community after
introducing the "gay sandwich" to help celebrate Pride.
The sandwich, sold in a
rainbow-coloured box,
similar to the pride flag, is bacon,
lettuce and tomato sandwich
with added guacamole, marketed as an LGBT.
An M&S spokesman
said: "M&S Food is celebrating
Pride season this year and
has launched a special
limited-edition LGBTQ+ sandwich."]

Yeah, us gays should be grateful that a big corporation is exploiting a still ongoing historical struggle to sell their stock, how very ungrateful of us

Is this somehow different from the other LGBT sandwich thread? Because there's already four pages of this.

This one is about the sandwhich itself, the other one is about Piers Morgan’s outrage about said sandwhich

But people are saying the same thing on here... and still moaning about Piers Morgan... and I still say they should be donating money from each sandwich sold.

I think the sandwich is 4.00? quite pricey so 10,000 isn't a very big donation

Currently the UK sandwich market is worth £3 billion - representing 1.8 billion sandwiches - and is growing at around 6each year.

I would imagine M and S have a big slice... of the market?
