    I understand so much more here than before I started watching The Great British Baking Show.

    I’m thinking, 96 layers? Is that a lot? I need to go rewatch a puff pastry episode. 😰

    That’s strangely cheap.

        Definitely not. Sure a hostage roll is like £1.50 now

          Scandalous how much more it costs to sit down and eat inside.

          Like I’m being punished for not wanting to sit in the office and converse with my colleagues.

            Sit on a park bench and share your sausage roll with the dirty pigeons (they love a bit of it).

    It’s cheaper to eat out? How?! I work at a bakery in Germany and the bag for taking this away is more expensive than the water for washing a plate by far. Even if it’s standing room only, that’s not really something that needs pricing pressure, people will figure it out. We even have tax breaks for dining-in here, making it even cheaper comparatively, but that’s just because of the pandemic and is going to end soon.

      In the UK VAT (20% tax) is charged for food that’s eaten in. The model is based more on sit-down restaurants than somewhere like Greggs, but if they have a counter and a couple of stools then they have to charge VAT if you eat on the premises.
