MORRISONS’ store in Foss Islands Road, York, has launched a foot long sausage roll - believed to be the largest in the UK.

Weighing in at nearly half a kilogram, the £1 ‘Foot Long Sausage Roll’ is freshly baked in-store by its Market Street bakers, made with seasoned pork meat and wrapped in a crisp, golden flaky pastry.

A Morrisons spokesman said it had been created after customers had said they wanted a bigger version of the British classic, and could be enjoyed as part of a picnic, shared with the family, or ‘eaten by customers with big appetites.'
