    I do wish you had a bit more of a variety on this week on. Majority of us know what a sausage roll or steak/chicken bake tastes like; it would've been nice to see you try things people don't really talk about and the lesser-known items. It did get a bit repetitive at points, nonetheless, it was still enjoyable:)

      Agreed, it wasn't very adventurous in terms of choices.
      I also wished he hadn't had the same doughnut twice and had varied the sweet offerings too.
      Quite a boring "week on" but I still had to watch it all the way through!

      Exactly. The lazy donut option, for several desserts was boring. Where was the Tottenham cake, caramel shortbread, brownie, Belgian bun, heart biscuit, gingerbread, fairy cake etc. Maybe they don't fit with his image. But- in for a penny, in for a pound...

    Been holding back waiting to see if you actually explored the full Gregg range. There's plenty of more healthy options they even have a "balanced choice" range which they launched with a diet plan a few years ago where they showed you how to do a week on Greggs calorie controlled. Greggs has fruit pots, their own drink range, salads, pasta salads, porridge, toasted sandwiches, but maybe you just went to bad shops at the wrong time of day 😅 You'd be surprised how many people do eat Greggs every day! Also, inside the triple chocolate doughnut is essentially just vanilla frosting like you have on a cupcake :) also, you can get little cheesy omelettes in your breakfast rolls, some people even buy the hash browns from the hot counter and put them in the breakfast rolls!

    A lot of these week on series tend to end up with Mike complaining that he is sick of something. In this case pastry.
    But rather than having sausage rolls multiple times or Chicken bakes, Steak bakes, Sausage and bean bakes... Etc
    There are a lot more options to choose in a greggs. Just seems like each of these weeks could have more variety and a lot of them end up the same.
    I get greggs is known for their sausage rolls and pasties but what's the point in having something multiple times in the same week when you don't have to.
    Than complaining that you have had too much of said thing?

    Mike almost always seems to lose weight on these challenges, and I feel one explanation for this is that any diet that involves only eating during meal times is likely to result in weight loss. I think what this proves is that snacking is the main cause of increased weight and if everybody centred their daily diet around three core meals, then they'd lose weight almost regardless of what those three meals consisted of

    I know people have been hounding you for years to do this one, but you were obviously bouncing against the limits of the menu for most of the week. Which is probably as it should be - it doesn't matter how nice the bhajis may have been, they're not 'proper' Greggs food (ie pastry and / or bread with stuff in the middle).
    Actually now I mention it the bhajis themselves would qualify perfectly, just not the rice / veg / etc on the side. Unless they put the whole thing on a baguette, and then you're on a whole other level.
