Coming late to this thread as usual and I can't believe anybody actually voluntarily buys the crap sold at Greggs, especially if they are supposedly a fit cyclist with any self-respect. Massive chains like Greggs represent the nasty industrial aspects of bakery, the meats are slurp and slurry and the pastries are based on hydrogenated vegetable fats (vegetable oil that's had hydrogen bubbled though it until it becomes hard). Unfortunately it's a fact of life that the fats and the salt enhance our appreciation of the flavours so to a lot of people who lack discrimination a greasy pasty from Gregges tastes better than a proper hand-made sandwich with fresh fillings.
For me it's a brown bap with a fresh ham salad and no marge, £1.00 a shot from the works canteen.
