Subway and Cadbury have come together to create a rather special Easter sandwich
Easter weekend is finally here and it's a time celebrated by people all over the world.
One big part of Easter is the food, and lots of people will be tucking into delicious chocolate eggs very soon.
However, here's one Easter food creation which is bound to divide opinions.
Food companies Subway and Cadbury have teamed up to design a special sandwich which includes a rather unusual ingredient...
It's filled with chocolate Creme Eggs!
The sandwich is described as "toasted on the outside and deliciously gooey on the inside", thanks to the Creme Egg's famous fondant filling.
"We're delighted to have collaborated with Cadbury this Easter," said Rusty Warren from Subway.
"Our Italian White Bread and Cadbury Creme Eggs make the most flavoursome combination - a perfect seasonal treat!"
Those looking to try the sandwich will have to be quick as it's only available on Good Friday in a limited number of locations.
The big question is - if you had the chance, would you give it a go? Have your say below.

This sweet sandwich isn't the only unusual Easter food. Here are some more quirky Easter snacks. Would you request them to accompany your roast lamb this year?
Cheesy eggs

Easter bunny made of cheese anyone?
Chocolate eggs are now a huge part of Easter, and traditionally are given to represent new life.
You can read more about why we give and receive chocolate eggs here!
But if you are more of a savoury lover, there is an alternative for you!
Various supermarkets around the UK are now selling Easter eggs made from cheese!
Morrisons, Asda, Marks and Spencers and Waitrose have all churned out a cheesy egg, with some even being accompanied by a cracker and chutney selection!
Pineapple and cheese casserole

Pineapple and cheese casserole? "Yes please" or "not for me?"
Don't worry if you can't decide between savoury and sweet - this one may be for you!
You may find this dish on an American Easter dinner table.
It's the pineapple casserole, made with cheddar cheese, butter, flour, sugar and sometimes cheesy crackers such as Ritz or Mini Cheddars!
You may already have an opinion on whether pineapple belongs on pizza or not, but this one is certainly going to raise eyebrows!
Would you try it?
Chocolate Bilbies

Children in Australia may well be doing an egg hunt left for them by the "Easter bilby"!
You may have been lucky enough to munch on a chocolate bunny but children in Australia could be enjoying a chocolate bilby!
That is because rabbits are a little less popular than their long-nosed distant cousins down under.
Bilbies are cute, big-eared marsupials that are native to the Australian outback, but around 200 years ago, European rabbits were introduced to the area and took over as the dominant species.
The now-endangered bilby became a popular Easter figure after a nine-year-old girl called Rose-Marie Dusting wrote a story called "Billy The Aussie Easter Bilby" in 1968.
Eleven years later she published the story and it brought the bilby, and it's status as an endangered species, back to the attention of Australian people.
Then, in 1991, an environmentalists teamed up with chocolatiers, and decided to create the chocolate bilby, in order to raise money to revive the bilby population in the country.
Butter lamb

Some people make their own butter lambs - wool you be giving it a go?
Your family may have a leg of lamb at the centre of their dinner table on Easter Sunday, but in Poland, things are a little different.
It is common to find a small lamb carved from a block of butter, often with a little bow around it's neck!
It was traditional for some Christians to give up dairy for Lent, so churning it into butter ready for Easter was a way to use up the leftover milk.
The lamb is also a reference to a well-known line in the Bible: "Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world."
