Just bought a "Premium" Scotch Egg from Sainsbury's. Look what I found in it...

That's right; nothing. There was no egg in it. It cost £1 from the deli counter.

There was a photo up there before, not sure where it went.

    Surely it felt a bit too light if the egg was missing??

    It's a fairly common thing with Morrisons, I guess Sainsbury's use the same supplier

    would need a video of it being cut open to prove you just didnt eat the egg

    But, that's the point of the photo, the hole wouldn't have been big enough for the egg to fall out of, unless I mangled it up with a fork. But I didn't do that.

    But only after you'd opened the packaging, didn't notice it was lighter that is should have been, then put it back in the fridge for 3 days ;)
