It would appear that Greggs is targeting a slice of the healthy eating market, which could see it selling salads, pasta and fresh fruit alongside its sausage rolls.
A spokesman said: "We think there is still more opportunity for Greggs around the healthier market, things like side salad pots, fresh fruit pots, pasta pots and yogurts
So Bern please take note..... now when you're sliding off work to grab a fun filled pastie for lunch you will no longer have to disguise the fact that you're going to Greggs you can always bullshit and pretend you're going for the healthy option.

Gawd yes Marek I remember the days when everything was cooked in dripping. Or Drippin' as we used to call it. There used to be a red bull on the very basic wrapper. No fancy pancy packaging with Drippin'. It was cheap and probably quite nasty, you could get it from the butcher too in slabs. Animal fats night and day...and we're still here..lol

but only just.
All the family had that stuff and my mother and father both smoked like troopers to boot. Needless to say both have departed long ago....

It does you the world of good to have something that is bad for you. (I would exclude cigarettes from that, they have no redeeming qualities at all)
Healthy eating freaks can be appalling company and dead boring.

the people that use to eat the most unhealthily, live with fog and smog now seem to be having a good time in their eighties and nineties.

Fog and Smog? They sound like characters from a TV programme, 'Now children are we sitting comfortably, let us ask what Fog and Smog have been up to today'

Marek - you can run but you can't hide. There is no bunker on earth will save you if I come for you! But thank you for bringing this to my attention. Any opportunity to slip a little pastry past the food police is welcome!

Ross I can make sushi or sashimi but in Dover you can't get fish fresh enough to eat raw unless you fish it out of the channel yourself.
