Assuage your conscience by buying a packet of designer crisps from them?
If you phoned ahead and they said no, you would have grounds to request that this pub not be visited by Morris Dancers in future. You could also then very publicly melt down with a clear conscience in their beer garden or car park and weep loudly that it was because they refused to feed you appropriately.
The pub might also be interested to know what they need to do to sell more food to Morris dancers.
My mother, who fancies herself gluten intolerant*, is shameless about asking pubs if she can have one of their sandwiches, only on the bread she has provided and half the size without the chips but with a potato salad instead. I'm always amazed how unfailingly helpful they are about this kind of request. So you could also go for requesting on of their expensive sandwiches but with only have the filling on a paper plate please and without the salad or chips - though you might still have to pay full whack for it.
