Perhaps by banana and chocolate filling them actually mean banana and chocolate 'paste' or something. 


I saw it tonight and that's exactly what it's like. BTW, if you fancy one pull your finger out - they're limited edition.

I've decided it sounds horrible now. Chocolate spread is fine but banana paste?

It was all mixed in with the chocolate spread. They had one reduced and I was tempted to try it, but I'm supposed to be dieting and decided I wasn't wasting the calories on it.

I have to say it sounds delightful.


Sweet 'chocolate flavoured' bread.  'Chocolate flavoured' sandwich spread and banana that has been 'messed about with' so it doesn't go brown.


All I can say to that thought is ............YUM 


I don't think one will be finding it's way into my shopping trolley any time soon and if as you say they are a limited edition then I may just miss out all together.


Ahhh poor heart broken me. I will have to be strong and hope the feeling soon passes. 


Velvet.

Hi Velvet. What a great name. Welcome.


I still don't think this is an original idea. In France a few years ago, we were offered Brioche (sweet bread) with butter and jam or you could have that horrible hazelnut/chocolate spread on it.


I understand that commercially produced sweet sandwiches are a new idea, but the idea of a sweet bread and sweet filling foes back at least decades.

Old but spicey!

I was at Tesco yesterday and I didn't see them. I was looking in the sandwich fridges ... that is where they are kept, isn't it?

nothing better than a chocolate spread and mashmallow toastie. (except perhaps a chocolate spread and marshmallow pizza.)
I reject your reality and substitute my own.

There's an idea - next they'll be selling sweet pizzas!

As WJP said, you can get chocolate and marshmallow pizzas - Asda used to sell them for one. They used to make apple crumble ones too.

Were they any good? When I did cooking at school some of the kids made sweet pizzas but I always thought it sounded horrible.

I always thought they ought to make birthday pizzas - I suggested it to the Asda magazine once.  So many kids don't like cake and you could easily stick candle holders in a pizza!

Just looked in my local takeaway leaflet and it has chocolate and marshmallow pizza, banana and chocolate pizza and fruit pizza!

I loved them at the time, but whether I would now is another matter. This was in around 1990 - they were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles branded!

I have looked at the sandwich label and there are no nasty things in it! And the label looks like they have used the tesco own brand chocolate spread and chunks of banana


And I had one and though it was lovely. Anybody else tried it?
