An American lass gave the British Greggs sausage roll a whirl, but found herself a little on the wrong side of the salty treat.
The Peachy family make a lot of videos on TikTok of their adventures in the UK, and true to their inquisitive nature, they decided to snap up some of Greggs’ famous offerings, including the much-loved sausage roll.
Lina, Jules’ daughter, grabbed the classic snack and found it “really good” but not quite up to par with the version from the local village store. The rating was an almost perfect 9.5/10.
Heading deeper into Greggs’ pastries, Lina did a tour of the taste buds with a corned beef patty, which she found tasty but “too mushy”. The bacon cheese wrap was a different story, as this got a full 10/10 from Lina due to its strong taste.
Likewise, the pizza offering received high marks, 10/10, satisfying the American palate impressively.
With over 9,000 views, the clip sent TikTokers into a frenzy with comments, with some Greggs insiders even agreeing with Lina’s top picks.
A Greggs member of staff responded saying: “Hi, I’m the guys at Greggs. Glad you liked the shop and, may I say, I agree with your favourites. They’re mine too.”
Another defended the vegan option: “The vegan sausage roll is better than the normal one.” Meanwhile, a third suggested, “Have a sausage, cheese and bean melt, please.”
Meanwhile, a fourth shared an insider tip, writing: “Greggs worker here. Would recommend trying the glazed doughnuts. Also recommend trying the pepperoni pizza as it has a blast.”
Although the public is hooked on following this family’s culinary journey between British restaurants online, opinions on their reviews often differ. Regardless, they love watching their adventures and waiting to see what they do next.
From supermarkets to budget stores, they’re always looking for the next British experience. They want to do as much as they can with their time on UK soil.
