Morrisons has launched the Foot Long Sausage Roll, believed to be the largest in the UK.
At one foot long and weighing in at nearly half a kilogram, the sausage roll is double the length and four times the weight of some high street competitors*.

- Available from 7th August, the 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. The sausage roll has to be served on a special tray that holds its weight, rather than being served in just the traditional paper bag.
- Morrisons has created the Foot Long Sausage Roll after listening to its customers, who said that they wanted a bigger version of the British classic.
- At only £1, the jumbo-sized British favourite can be bought hot and ready-to-eat from Morrisons Pie Shop counters on Market Street. It could be enjoyed as part of a picnic, shared with the family, or eaten by customers with big appetites.
- The sausage roll is being launched in time for the start of the football season to be the ultimate match day pie experience.
- Morrisons Pie and Pastry Expert, Philippa Shaw says: “We sell one million freshly baked sausage rolls-a-week but customers have asked for one that is even bigger. So we created this foot-long version. With the start of the football season approaching, we’re hoping our Foot Long Sausage Roll will be making its way to the top of the snack league table!”
- Morrisons new Foot Long Sausage Roll is available from the Pie Shop on Market Street in Morrisons stores nationwide, priced at £1.00.
