Brace yourselves.
We’re pretty sure we’ve found the worst Eggs Benedict ever.
When diner Thomas Hesketh ordered a serving of the breakfast staple at a UK supermarket, he was met with what he described as a “monstrosity”.
Instead of receiving a typical serving of Eggs Benedict – think an English muffin, poached egg, bacon or ham and some hollandaise sauce – Thomas received something very, very different.
The irritated customer shared a photo of his meal, which consisted of two poached eggs sitting on top of two slices of deli ham and topped with two congealed dollops of hollandaise sauce.
“Ordered Eggs Benedict in your Wigan cafe and received this monstrosity instead,” he wrote on Twitter.

This site is sooo behind the times - Retro Tuckshop Cuisine is the new orange. Sheesh
No question, that looks really bad (and that doesn't look like "deli ham" - that looks like it came out of a packet at the supermarket) but $8.95? I wouldn't be expecting great or even good Eggs Benedict for $8.95. It's at least $14-15 at the cafes around here. It looks a lot better than this, needless to say.
Agreed. He's eating at a cafe run by the supermarket, for god's sake. If I went to breakfast at a place run by Woolies or Coles, I certainly wouldn't be expecting anything beyond that kind of standard (and price).
