M&S Food #3

[rainbowlemon]

Feel like I won the lottery today. The thing is they didn’t have a reduced sticker, but scanned through at £0.73p each then I got another one. Lots in my local store which I didn’t spot last time as they had sold out.

I got the Golden blonde spread, biscoffi has been demoted to bog standard cocaine in a jar golden blonde is the new crack

My brother took me to this shop thats just opened close to us, they sell food from all sorts of shops that they haven't sold. You can only get in with a blue light card (?) I saw this and let me tell you I grabbed it off the shelf after seeing the raving reviews on here. 90p you can't go wrong!

This might be an unpopular opinion, but……

Does anyone else think the cake in a jar range isn’t living up to the hype? I’ve bought a few of them this year, each time hoping I’ll enjoy it but I never do, there’s too much buttercream and not enough cake so it’s overwhelmingly sweet, and we don’t then need extra sweets inside, the Percy pig jar is particular vile, the jelly sweets texture with the buttercream

If any of their NPD team ever lurk here, pleeeeease consider amending the ratio, and maybe look at limited edition free-from flavours, gluten free and vegan customers would love to try them too!

Cornish cruncher is the absolute best cheese. For our first date, my (now) boyfriend planned a picnic and asked if there were any specific foods I wanted. I said my fave cheese is cornish cruncher but don't worry if you can't get it. Poor lad spent £5 on it and he doesn't even eat cheese

It’s a improvement on the Percy pig flavoured everything!

Maybe a Percy Pig burger is next..? I can totally picture the pink bun

Pulled Percy spring roll, anyone?
(Sorry!)

We’ve got friends round for dinner tomorrow & wanted an easy dinner so popped to M&S tonight.

Picked up the 2 pizzas & 2 sides (dough balls & Mac & cheese bites) for £10, jalapeño olives, tomato & mozzarella parcels & mozzarella balls with pesto in the 3 for £7 deal. Also grabbed a bag of ceaser salad & 2 bottles of the pre made pornstar martini.

On my last pumpkin cake after purchasing 4 last week. It goes off tomorrow and I’m devastated. So much so that I’ve halved it, warmed it up slightly, and paired it with half a tub of Haagen-Daz pralines and cream ice cream. It’s a match made in heaven.

I was in M&S this morning and seen a lady with SIX pumpkin spiced loafs in her basket I felt like asking her if she was on the M&S tattle thread although she did have a few other Halloween things it was probably for a party

Apple and blackberry lattice tart is back in our M&S, literally made me happy cry after a shitty day outside in the rain

That's no way to talk about the checkout woman lol.

Started my Christmas shopping

 

[Notgonnalie]

Went in today for some groceries and for the first time found the Mac n cheese toasties so I put 2 in my trolley. Furious when I got home to see theyre £5.50 each!!!!! I thought they were only that price in the cafe. So I paid £11 for 2 toasties today!! Better be nice.

 

[MarthaFarkus]

Right, excuse the crap in my kitchen - this is what I bought today. I had a voucher so only had to pay about £5 and I’m very happy with what I’ve got. The pumpkin loaf was with all the Halloween detritus as you walk in and there were TONS of them! I live on my own now my daughter has gone to uni so the USA dine in for £15 was a bit excessive so just got the fries and vegan burger (which was reduced) and it was all meat apart from the burger anyway (I’m vegetarian). Looking forward trying the cheese and the Halloween 3 for £10. I always pick up some ready meals for work, my favourite bread and the salted caramel oat shake () when I go. I did a ‘sensible’ shop at Sainsburys afterwards as M&S is strictly for treats. Now to put it all away!

Had the M&S party food last night I bought. Had mini pies (beef & ales and chicken, bacon & leek), burger spring rolls, Asian sticky chicken lollipops and chicken tikka mini naans. All lovely, my mum was so impressed so she is rushing to M&S next week (I bought a load of stuff for this weekend from M&S and she’s now as obsessed as we are!)

It was all so delicious, streets ahead of other store party food. They were 4 for 3

burger spring rolls just taste like mince spring rolls for those worrying about gherkin. The burger sauce is gherkiny though (and delish!!)

We loved the cherry bakewell loaf cake, at first I was kicking myself for not buying two as I thought it was too small for 4 but was fine and we had other things anyway.

Whoever recommended the mint Colin faces, thank you! But also you have given my elderly mum an addiction so you should also feel slightly bad about that

 

[Yel]

Yeah the chocolate popcorn Percy doesn't look good either.

Someone needs to sit down with m&s and tell them to calm it down.

 

[whisperchat]

Just found out that the M&S at the hospital I work at is closing down on Saturday! Ruined my whole day not going to lie..

RIP the coffee machine and yumnuts

 

[Gossipgirl92]

I literally can’t stand anything pumpkin spiced or bao buns but reading this thread everyday has had me planning a trip to M&S to buy three pumpkin spice cakes and some bao buns oh and some Cornish cruncher

 

[Babysnark]

Has anyone had this? I was so tempted but the three in the store I visited only had one day date left on them and we had plans

 

[Notgonnalie]

I have now tasted one of the Mac n cheese toasties as I needed to taste if it was worth the £5.50.

oh. My. Dayzzzzzz. Unbelievable. So tasty! Im not sure any toasties worth £5.50, especially if you’ve to heat it at home but… if you want a damn good toastie it’s a good treat for the experience! The bread was a scrumptious sourdough, the macaroni was plentiful and the perfect texture, the cheese was the kind that strings as you take a bite; mouth watering kinda good!!

I will 100% be having the other one for lunch tomorrow and keeping my eye out for them going on yellow sticker as I couldn’t afford that every week but overall a solid 9/10 with the point being lost on price!!

Popped in after I finished work, got the Best Ever Mac and Cheese on the £10 meal deal along with profiteroles and mash (there were no triple cooked chips to be found). I'll have the mash another night. I am trusting you guys that the Mac and Cheese is worth it, because I was very close to going to Co-Op for their Irresistible one which is the king of store bought Mac and Cheese.

I was hoping for the in-store garlic bread from the bakery but it was all gone Had to make do with cheesy garlic bread slices

Yes I wanted chips and garlic bread with my mac n cheese. First day back at work today after annual leave and I needed the carbs. Don't judge me

Also no Cherry Bakewell Loaf so treated myself to these instead.
