Greggs unveils healthy sourdough pasties

The bakery chain announced that it is launching two new products with reduced fat levels and lower calorie counts to promote healthy eating habits.

The “healthy” pasties will contain under 300 calories and up to two-thirds less fat and saturated fat (9g rather than 25g). The two new products, available with chicken katsu or Bombay potato fillings, are also made with a sourdough-based shortcrust pastry rather than traditional puff pastry laden with butter.
