The Daily Mail published the headline “Is There No One Left In Britain Who Can Make A Sandwich?” This was of course about the company Greencore, who are responsible for making more than a third of sandwiches in the UK. As they are offering new jobs in a factory in Northampton yet no body wishes to apply to this new job.
This made the Daily Mail want to raise a question of if you could make a sandwhich? Surely it can’t be that hard? Two slices of bread, butter and your filling? Yet the Daily Mail believes that nobody in the UK can make a sandwich as they created a game in which to prove your sandwich making skills – check it out via http://games.usvsth3m.com/can-you-make-a-sandwich/
Forget about the game, you guys took to twitter and showed how you can make a mean cheese and pickle.
