I get very annoyed by litter (and collect about a bag a week from my local rivers), but this is almost archaeology!

Maybe someone had a 'squirrel stash' for future visits on the north face of Braeriach or somewhere, where a sandwich might have been preserved for 29 years (perhaps the stasher didn't reckon with the oncoming global warming).
