The BLT has been crowned the UK’s favourite sandwich for 2024 in a recent poll, with 28% of respondents saying they were a fan.

The combination of bacon, lettuce and tomato between slices of bread can be traced back to an entry in Good Housekeeping Everyday cookbook in 1903.

Do we need our own poll?

Yes! We need to uncover the truth Big Bread is hiding from us!

Bastards! I'm on it!

I'm excited to see this. I also got the feeling it was a loaded question because there a a ton of classics not represented: bacon butties, chip butties, cheese and onion, ham and mustard, sausage, baked bean toasties, cucumber, jam, peanut butter. I guess they could be lower ranking but I doubt that about the first few at least.

Misread your list and wondered deeply at 'cucumber jam'. Not prepared to try it on the off-chance, mind you.

Sugar butties.
