What kind of sandwiches are you eating? 800 calories is a ridiculously large sandwich.

Even Tesco's bacon & egg triple is only 550 : https://www.tesco.com/groceries/en-GB/products/260422235

I'm struggling to find anything I'd describe as a sandwich come close to 800 calories.

Footlong Spicy Italian at Subway ($10 sandwich) is 1320 cals.

EDIT: the trend holds pretty well at the footlong size (which is a big sandwich). 18/26 sandwiches they offer are >1000 calories.

A foot-long sub is not "just a sandwich", it's a meal for 2.

Secondly, I can't see how you can get to 1320 calories for a footlong italian going by this: https://www.subway.com/en-gb/-/media/emea/europe/uk/nutritio...

Even counting footlong bread + footlong Italian Sub it only comes to ~1100.

And as it makes clear, a footlong is 2 6" servings, it's disingenuous to pretend that's a sandwich.

Fair enough, but so is 800cal/h exercise. And I'd rather overestimate the intake.
