Smoked mackerel and boiled eggs top list of foods - never to eat on a train

Smoked mackerel, boiled eggs, curry, and egg sandwiches are among the top food that should never be eaten – when travelling on a train, according to research.

Over half of Brits (55%) who have travelled by rail in the last year have prepared food to take with them, with 45% admitting they always pack a full picnic spread for longer journeys.

The survey of 2,000 adults revealed that 53% believe eating is the best way to fill their time on the train – and think chocolate and soft sweets are the best acceptable snacks to munch on during your travels.
