Greggs has teamed up with Capital Breakfast to launch a brand new breakfast butty called "The Jordan" which will be available for a limited time only this week.

"The Jordan" is inspired by new Capital presenter Jordan North and his ultimate breakfast ingredients - bacon, ketchup, brown sauce and a dollop of mustard - which he discussed with fellow co-hosts Sian Welby and Chris Stark on the show earlier this week.

He said the bacon roll with mustard, along with a squeeze of both ketchup and brown sauce had “changed his life” since he first tried it 12 years ago, telling listeners “don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it!”.

Upon hearing of North's unique breakfast, Greggs got to work and developed "The Jordan" butties which they hand-delivered to the Capital studio for the hosts to enjoy.

North, who took over from Roman Kemp as co-host of Capital Breakfast this week, was "buzzing" upon the delivery, exclaiming "Oh my God this is amazing!”.

The breakfast roll sent fans into a spin on an Instagram poll with 76% of listeners voting “You’ve GOT to be joking” when asked about trying “The Jordan”, while 24% agreed with his bizarre sauce combination.

On Thursday's (April 11) show, Stark called upon Greggs CEO Roisin Currie to pull a favour for them and launch "The Jordan" in stores across the UK. 

Speaking on the Capital Breakfast Show, Currie said: "If our customers are saying they’d like to try it, then let me see if there’s something we could do."

She also admitted she was keen to try one for herself.
