Interestingly, you still can't buy a pre-made sandwich from a supermarket in Australia. We have Subways and sandwiches at cafe's and corner stores, but actually barely any "ready to eat" meals at our supermarkets.
I wonder whether we have regulations in place that prevent this, just like we do with alcohol? Or is it that the Aussie market is different? Or is there an un-tapped market ready for the taking?
Insufficient population density, small market, high average distance to market, low "eat out" frequency (but increasing), short commercial hours, arguably higher freshness / quality standards.
I ordered a sandwich in Cann River and got a plate of sandwich ingredients as an unassembled sandwich. This happened again in Melbourne. I'm skeptical of your whole country's sandwich making skills.
