Dan Walker fans threaten to vomit over ‘disgusting’ radio confession after BBC Breakfast return rumours
DAN Walker’s fans were left nearly sick after he revealed his ‘disgusting’ radio confession.
The broadcaster took to social media to share what his favourite sandwich is.
Dan, 47, revealed the controversial ingredients which includes chocolate spread and salad cream.
He continued to tell his fans he’d have it on white bread, with cheddar cheese, crushed salt and vinegar crisps and silverskin pickled onions.
The former BBC Breakfast star left his 300,000 followers disgusted as they flooded his comments with replies.
One wrote: “Your sandwich is disgusting.”
A second posted: “Chocolate spread is a typo, right?”
“Not sure you need the chocolate spread in there,” said a third.
While a fourth simply commented: “Yuck!”
Meanwhile, Dan recently broke his silence on his return to BBC Breakfast.
The dad-of-three hosted the flagship Beeb show as an anchor with Sally Nugent from 2016 until his departure in 2022.
