A woman has taken to social media to share apicture of a $6 bacon sandwich her friend was served on a Ryanair flight. In a post made to her 14,000 followers on Twitter, Liz Nugent posted an image of the lunch her friend Aimee had recently been subjected to. This so-called sandwich apparently consisted of an ungarnished baguette, sliced cleanly in half, and adorned with two small pieces of bacon. <img class=" wp-image-1263123992" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/08/fwesdz.jpeg" alt="" width="646" height="649" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Twitter/@LizzieNugent]] In a <a href="https://twitter.com/lizzienugent/status/1428879848408240135" target="_blank" rel="noopener">since-deleted tweet</a>, the Dublin-based writer took the Irish airline to task for their substandard catering, writing: <blockquote>"My pal @AimeeWoods21 paid [5.5o Euros] for this 'bacon sandwich' @Ryanair today. I'm trying to figure out if it qualifies."</blockquote> Nugent's post clearly outraged a number of other Twitter users, who promptly took to the comments to share their own thoughts on the state of the meal.

[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/CanadaHardcover/status/1428959685873266692]] A second critic was even less impressed, dubbing the picture: "World's saddest looking sandwich." [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/BenTheBold/status/1430187398319771650]] Another added: "OMG, what a pathetic bacon sandwich! And that costed £5!! Ryanair should be ashamed to offer passengers that for £5. Even it was free, it would still be pathetic! I only once flew on Ryanair. Never again! [sic]" [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/essjax/status/1429959034254233600]] While a fourth wrote: "From what I remember of Ryanair I'm surprised it wasn't 20 EUR, covered in mold and delivered with a punch to the face (attracting a mandatory additional fee) [sic]" [[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/RuthWareWriter/status/1428975536689270785]] Another added: "It's like a thought experiment in how far the concept of 'bacon sandwich' can be whittled down before the thing falls apart. I'm enjoying Ryanair's new role as avante garde philosophers." According to <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/15936319/worlds-saddest-bacon-sandwich-ryanair-flight/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sun</a>, Woods herself later commented on the sandwich in question, stating that she had "a lovely flight and the cabin crew were class." She added: "I just found the sandwich humorous and slightly overpriced. Still ate it though! I doubt people will book a flight based on the quality of a sandwich to be fair!" <h6>Featured Image Credit: Alamy/Charles Polidano/Touch The Skies</h6>
