This has been the best laugh I've had this month.
Just seen it reported on DS now that Google has corrected it. Other media picked up the story yesterday.

Bit different to Greggs.
The bakers i use locally has a lot better quality ingredients than Gregg's who appeal is for the less fortunate in life .
I once tried one of their Cornish Pasties and the filing looked and tasted like diarrhoea. It really put me off, a Cornish pasty isn't supposed to be filed with brown, shitty coloured slop!
I don't look down on Greggs users personally. I was just making the point that not all bakeries are the same.
I was simply explaining why some people don't like Gregg's , it's the Iceland of the Bakers world . It makes cheap food which has a market but it's not for everyone .
And I'm simply pointing out you said people who use Gregg's are the 'less fortunate in life'. If that isn't looking down on people for the most ridiculous reason then I don't know what is.
Maybe a self-esteem class would help you?
Wow! Really? Not all bakers are the same? Well, I certainly didn't know that. Not like butchers then? They are all the same surely.
I can't see them selling many of those. Cornish pasties should not taste of diarrhea.
You must be easily amused.
What a well rounded individual you sound. Think i'm glad im 'less fortunate' if it means I'm not like you.
Apparantly some ice cream does..?
I have started bring a Tesco carrier bag in just to aggravate her
But does paying more for shit not make it shit?
Me too, I love the donuts.
I would say the ingredients at 'higher end' bakeries are on the whole better than the ingredients used at big chains like Greggs.
This isn't to say that Greggs produces all terrible food - occasionally I do buy bread in Greggs and I quite like the odd steak bake, but I would doubt very much that the ingredients used at Greggs are particularly premium quality, not with the prices they manage to charge.
I get my lunch from Greggs sometimes, it's convenient and it's cheap(I can get a mug of soup, a roll and a cake for £2). I am not amongst the less fortunate in life, and considering any Greggs that I go past has a queue out of the door of office and hospital workers at lunch time I can't see how they are the "less fortunate in life" either.
Would she know a fake from a real designer handbag though?
I have no idea I certainly wouldn't though
