Deliveroo launches Sproutwich made with six sprout ingredients
Deliveroo has launched the ‘Christmas Sproutwich’, the UK’s most divisive festive sandwich which pays homage to the controversial round leafy green vegetable. The 99p ‘Christmas[1] Sproutwich’ consists of six different sprout-infused ingredients: a green artisan sprout-infused focaccia spread with garlicky lemon zest sprout mayo, layered with crispy maple bacon, a sprout stuffing, Emmental cheese, roasted sprout halves, fried sprout shavings and zesty lemon and olive oil marinated sprout leaves. Each sandwich will come with a pot of roast chicken gravy for dunking, dipping or drizzling once heated at home.
Available to order from December 6 in Bristol, Glasgow, London and Manchester, the ‘Christmas Sproutwich’ recipe took over three months to develop, with twelve different recipe combinations tried and tested by self-confessed sprout haters before landing on the flavour combination. Arabella Jenkins at Deliveroo said, “There’s no sprout about it – this small festive vegetable has garnered a big, bad reputation over the years. So for any sprout-phobes asking why we want to celebrate the humble Brussels sprout with a deliciously divisive sandwich, we say – why not?
At Christmas, anything goes! “We have achieved something a third of the nation thinks is impossible and made an absolutely delicious seasonal sprout creation. So, this one’s for the sprout lovers as well as the sprout haters.
If you love ’em, you’re welcome. If you hate ’em, we promise one bite will change your mind.” The limited-edition ‘Christmas Sproutwich’ is available via Deliveroo Editions in Bristol, Glasgow, London and Manchester from Wednesday 6th to Friday 8th December – for just 99p – while limited stocks last.
