A social media user on X, formerly Twitter, identified a couple of Greggs steak bake pastries in a photo of long gone English king, Henry VIII. More specifically, the king seemed to be wearing them as shoes, and the rather puzzled person named Luke asked, โWhy do Henry VIIIโs shoes look like a Greggs steak bake?โ
The bakery chain caught wind of Lukeโs discovery and wittingly responded with reference to what Henry was known forโ beheading his wives and adversaries. โLosing our heads over this,โ the outletโs spokesperson wrote. Lukeโs post soon sparked a debate on whether time travel is real or not.
People react to the bizarre time travel speculation about King Henry VIII

Some claimed that King Henry VIII was in fact wearing a cheese and onion pastry, not a steak bake. โIโm losing my head because itโs cheese and onion itโs being compared to! Not a steak bake,โ someone retorted. Another joked in response saying, โIt was how the nobles kept their feet warm.โ
โ…there was no central heating back then. Commoners had to make do with a raw turnip shoe,โ they added.

It was comic relief to many, including a user who asked Greggs to โnow expand into footwear.โ โMaybe also make gloves out of 5 sausage rolls sown together,โ they jested. โItโs funny because theyโve related it to actual historic events. Fantastic stuff, what a day,โ another added.
The debate on time travel comes a few weeks after Greggsโ customers in Twickenham, London raised concerns about losing their pastries, especially sausage rolls, which the outlet claims to sell at five pieces a second, to crows. A concerned resident named Ricky Craig Pound took to Facebook with a โword of warning to anybody who eats food whilst on the go in the center of Twickenham.โ โOn four occasions recently I have been attacked by crows from the back trying to get food from my hand,โ he noted.
A woman was said to have suffered scratches from the creatures, which tore bacon from her sarnie. โThis is particularly prevalent in Church Street and near Greggs. I have heard from one local business that this has become a real problem in the last few months. If it happened to a child this would really scare them. Not sure what the answer is but I will be contacting the council,โ Ricky added.
