I was recently in England and I was most excited about trying Gregg’s vegan sausage rolls (I’m not classy, but I was very happy with them). Each time I got one, they came in this bag.

Is it just that each size bag highlights one of the baked goods that fits inside it or do they have different bags for every type of item?

It’s not important, but I work at a german bakery chain (so similar work, but very different cultural milieu, if panel shows are to be believed- I get the vibe that Gregg’s is like a bakery crossed with a Waffle House, but I didn't actually witness any shenanigans), and I would be so fucking annoyed if I had to get a specific bag for each item.

The vegan one is just green just because vegan....

They only use one bag for all products and this key is on the back to help people identify each item.

Sometimes people do a Greggs run to get stuff for a few people and this shows the pastry finishes and shapes so that products can be identified if they are carrying a few bags and they get mixed up.
