The very expensive Harrods sandwich at almost 3 euros a bite that not even the English can swallow

English gastronomy is one of the most criticized in the world, since many consider it limited and that it glorifies some dishes that in other places would be called simple or downright bad, and on social networks the defects of its culinary culture are often pointed out.

One of the clearest cases has been the recent viral phenomenon of the Harrods sandwich, a curious 32-euro sandwich that, despite its price, has not convinced even the English themselves.

With an average of 3 euros per bite, this sandwich has Wagyu beef from Japan, mushrooms, truffle, mustard mayonnaise and arugula, as well as a rustic bread that gives it a very good appearance.

However, many have criticized that the flavor of the sandwich is too powerful and that it does not allow the taste of the meat to be appreciated, since it is extremely perfumed.

Dubbed the “most expensive sandwich in London”, this sandwich that is supposed to be a luxury snack ends up being a poorly adjusted combination of several good quality ingredients.

In short, it seems that the sandwich does not live up to its price and Harrods will have to rethink its price or its composition to make it more successful.
