Starbucks Gluten Free Tuna Sandwich

Those of us who are coeliacs or suffer from wheat allergies find it difficult to find a light meal for lunch since we cannot eat sandwiches. Freefrom foods has recently launched an excellent new gluten-free bread that is light and has a nice taste. The announcement that every Starbucks in the UK would stock a gluten and diary free tuna sandwich sent me out to try one as this combination should have been a solution to where to go with friends for a coffee and a bite.

Unfortunately Starbucks Gluten free tuna mayo sandwich is a disaster. It is described as "Pole and line-caught Skipjack tuna with roasted tomatoes and basil mayo, topped with rocket leaves served on Genius gluten free bread." It costs £3.45

Frankly Starbucks could have saved the money and used fishpaste. The sandwich didnt really taste of anything other than the Genius bread. Opening the sandwich revealed a filling that was a thin smear of (presumably) tuna mayo, a tiny piece of rocket, and a couple of fragments of tomato.

Genius bread is light, actually too light to support a very generous sandwich filling, but a filling as meager as this is just ridiculous.
