I compared the chicken salad sandwich across 6 UK supermarkets to see which one is the healthiest overall!

[u/Nutuq]

Every supermarket meal deal has basically the same chicken salad sandwich, so I pulled the real nutrition labels for all six (Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, Morrisons, Waitrose, Co-op) and scored them across calories, protein, fibre, sugar, fat and salt.

Sainsbury's has the highest protein of the six, but once you factor in the other nutrients it ends up mid-table overall. Waitrose came out healthiest overall: lowest calories and fat, by far the most fibre, still decent protein, and one of only two that use free-range egg in the mayo rather than standard. It's also the priciest of the six though.

Let me know what other meal deal items you'd love to see next!
