Bacon Sandwich.

Id recommend unless on a strict low carb diet of under 50 or under 50 carbs then have your sandwich just don’t hammer loads of them

A bacon sandwich as a meal won’t hurt in the big picture if the rest of your diet is ok

If you are keeping to under 50g/30g - good at sandwich - fry up some bacon and eggs and enjoy with no bread
I would test before and two hours after a meal when having a regular sandwich to see how my blood glucose reacted to that particular meal before deciding it wouldn't hurt because the rest of my diet is ok.
 
I'm all in on the bacon and eggs.
I thought that bread would be the most difficult thing to stop, but I really haven't wanted a slice of any bread all year.
 
You don’t say whether you wear a CGM ( might be worth getting a free one from Libre for 2 weeks) but I do and experiment with different breads from various true, and so called, sourdough breads, and low GI rolls ( Lidl at 35p each) as for me it’s not so much the carb content itself but how my body copes with it ie spikes or not. If I am eating bread I like it ‘solid’ and did not like the texture, or price, of some low carb.egs!
