Noticed it today, so I thought I'd give it a try. It claims to be 10gms a slice (I've seen bigger postage stamps) and 30grm carb per 100grm compared to Burgen at 13grm and 30grm carb per 100grm. I'll test in an hour and again in 2, will the bacon, cheese, Mushrooms and toasted affect my results? 🙂
 
Hmmm yes they will as assuming they have been fried, and of course the fat in the cheese too 🙂 x
 
First check after an hour and I'm 5.0 I grilled the bacon, it knew nothing. And then it was into the toasted sandwich maker with the rest and a cheeky double espresso on the side
 
I have not tried as i don't shop in Tesco but the results others have had have been mixed from what i remember, but then most things are.

What were you before you started we need to know that too lol 🙂 x
 
I bought a loaf of that too. The slices are smaller than Burgen, which probably explains the carb difference. I found the Tesco's had exactly the same effect on me as Burgen, 2 slices give around a 1.5mmol rise. Warburton's High Protein bread sent my BG up by 2.5mmols, despite carbs being similar.
