Tesco Chicken, Avocado & Bacon Sandwich
Review of Tesco Chicken, Avocado and Bacon sandwich, consisting of roast chicken and sliced avocado with sweetcure bacon, lemon and black pepper mayo in a malted bread.
If the avocado is suppose to make an impact in this sandwich, then it certainly has. Until I tried this sandwich, I never had given avocado ago before, in any shape or form.
My first thought was it is nothing special, neither in the sandwich or how it could taste better on its own. If it wasn't for the peppered mayo it would of been quite bland.
The avocado doesn't provide a crunchy bite - more like a soft apple - and has a mild, mellow flavor coming through. But a combination of all the filling does make for a better sandwich.
Overall, I wouldn't be rushing out to try this sandwich again, but the taste would appeal to most sandwich eaters.

My personal pictures
When opening this avocado sandwich pack, you'll instantly distinguish the green avocado from the bacon and chicken filling.
Out of the packaging, this Tesco avocado sandwich filling is clearly visible with a good thickness about it, but it does stop short on the corners.
Looks are deceiving, taking a look at the back of this cut open sandwich and you'd think this one lacked any filling.
By opening up the bread, you will notice the filling is a little sparse, forcing the filling to the center creates a mound, making the filling appear more than what it is.
