Morrisons Is Selling A Big Breakfast Butty With Ten Fillings For £3

Ever a wanted a massive full English breakfast but not had the time to sit down and enjoy one? Of course you have.

Well fear not, Morrisons may just have the solution.

The supermarket is selling a huge breakfast butty containing 10 different fillings, enabling hungry customers to get their fry up fix on the go.

The butty/barm/bap/roll/muffin (let's not get into that debate) is seven inches across and is packed with two rashers of bacon, two hash browns, two sausages, baked beans, mushrooms, a fried egg and grilled tomato.

Unsurprisingly with all that filling, the sandwich weighs in at three quarters of a kilo and is four inches deep. It is served wrapped in foil so you can devour it on the move, though you'll be hard-pushed not to spill a bean or two on yourself.

Morrisons cafe first introduced the mega sandwich in November so that people could enjoy a big breakfast on the go, but then for some reason it disappeared from menus.

The good news is, it is back and on sale for £3 somehow - it was a fiver when it was first introduced.

The bad news is, it's only available until Sunday...so you will gave to act fast if you want to get your hands on one.

Perhaps you might want to head down and pick one up over the weekend after a big night out; after all, the full English fry up was voted the best hangover cure last year.

Better still, you can eat this breakfast butty outside on a bench, meaning you can get some fresh air on your face and easily puke it all up in a nearby hedge if needs be.

You shouldn't feel too guilty though if you are drawn to the greasy stuff when you're feeling a little weak after a few too many, as there are scientific reasons why we find ourselves craving fatty foods.

Mammals naturally gravitate to fat dense foods high in calorific content, it's just that normally we have some self-discipline. Alcohol - as we all know - reduces our inhibitions, hence we have less restraint and go straight for the greasiest grub we can find.

It is also believed that brain chemistry could have something to do with it, namely the chemical galanin.

According to Popular Science, Professor William Gruchow said: "Galanin increases appetite for fats, and consumption of fat causes more galanin to be produced.

"Alcohol intake also results in increased galanin production.

"The bottom line here is that alcohol intake increases one's appetite for fat, and fat intake does the same. This is a double whammy for drinkers who eat fatty foods while drinking."

So if you want to be kind to your body, maybe give the big breakfast butty a swerve... but remember, Sunday is your last chance to get one.
