It’s British Sandwich Week, so BBC business reporter Dougal Shaw thought he’d “try something new”.

Instead of buying sandwiches in the supermarket he’d, like, buy the ingredients (in the supermarket) and make the sandwich at work.

Yes folks, it’s …

He even made a video diary about it.

So how did he get along?

No, not really. Next you’ll be telling us it’s actually cheaper to make your own sandwiches than buy them pre-packed?

It was more than the internet could take.

@broderick ‘with my colleagues interested I realised that I could compile more sandwiches than I consume and exchange them for money or goods’ — David Wyllie (@journodave) May 16, 2017

@Glorio @broderick I bet this is the first time he’s ever made his own sandwiches and his mind is blown — big fan of this site (@granitetide) May 16, 2017

@granitetide @broderick can’t wait for next week’s MASSIVE exposé on the fact that you don’t have to go to starbucks, there’s a kettle RIGHT THERE AT WORK #lifehack — Pez D Spencer (@Glorio) May 16, 2017

@broderick @misskylie77 The only amazing thing here is how his sandwich ingredients haven’t been nicked from the work fridge by Tuesday. — Helena Handbasket (@kerrynwoods) May 16, 2017
