M&S Food #3

[FenellaTheWitch]

They seem to bench some of the stock to make way for the Christmas products. It will all be canapes and tins of biscuits for the next few months.

I never understand that. As much as I love a mince pie I don't want them every day from now until Dec 25th!!

They reduce the 'normal' food way too early. The Best Ever Steak Pie has been missing for several weeks now though

Does anyone know if M&S have stopped selling muffins? I used to buy the chocolate and coffee ones every time I went in (they're so good...) but i've now been to 2 M&S stores and can't find any flavour of muffins anywhere, apart from gluten free ones.

I got them about 2 weeks ago! I haven’t checked for them since. I love the chocolate coffee ones!

Yes I had the smart pass and Ocado reserved. It’s a shame as I hate food shopping but I didn’t feel that they valued my custom and things were showing as being in stock and then not delivered.

It’s definitely not as fancy but I have a weekly delivery with Morrison’s and usually get everything I ordered. Occasionally get a couple of subs but on the most part It’s reliable.

So glad I found this thread. Has anyone seen the Camembert and tomato tarts recently? They’ve disappeared and I loved them so much!

Is anyone getting the money off vouchers anymore? 3 weeks without a voucher ….

A bit stupid to say, but it looks better from the packaging - it's a 7 not a 6 like cornish cruncher extra mature and is matured for a 1 year longer. I want

Seems it's a little more expensive than the M&S one for 500g. I have had the Waitrose one and I'd say it's nice, but I've not tried the M&S one to compare.

 

[Tatooine_legend1]

All of the party food! Especially the chicken lollipops and yakitori skewers

Hmm, I've not tried those. You think they'll release them this year?

 

[Missmopps]

Has anyone tried the new £15 American meal deal? I saw it briefly yesterday when I went in for something else. Blue and white stripy packaging. Burgers, fries and a few other things I can’t remember. The house fries look good, I wonder if they are just the regular M&S frites packed up in another box?

 

[Tatooine_legend1]

Apologies for talking about Waitrose, but does anybody know if the Cornish cruncher cheese is similar or the same as this one from Waitrose?

Can't put my finger on it , I actually didn't serve myself up any of them. It was only when I looked on my husband's and daughters plate i realised they left them.
He said they were soggy and floppy and the texture was liked they were frozen and defrosted and then frozen again defrosted.. rinse and repeat ? I did say to him * I'd be VERY surprised if they were crispy , as crispy mushrooms are hard to do normally , never mind a pre bought side and they were from the chiller cabinet* . Thinking he was exaggerating
Then I tasted it ... it was exactly how he said ,very odd texture and very strong tasting , not garlicky strong, mushroomy strong .. very wet feeling , wet mushroom, bordering on slimy almost .. I reallly wanted to spit it out as I found it very hard to swallow , he only cut me off a little bit.

Yuk !! Will avoid

my m&s is advertising on Facebook they have the Santa yumnuts in. Can’t wait to get some !!!

What flavour does a Santa Yumnut consist of?

I need to stop eating the percy pig snoses for my bank balances sake

this Is the one I get, (maybe there’s a few in the line!) it’s got these bits of balsamic onion and it’s just lovely

Not seen that one ! I just get the ordinary one but this could be worth a try .

 

[Renegadedancer]

Has anyone used their Sparks card and got a free shop! It happened to me a while back and the lady behind me in the queue clapped for me got £70 of shopping for free, was gutted I’d walked passed the gin
We’ve just tried the Dirty Burger Dough Balls - awful weird texture and just plain bizarre. Love the lasagne ravioli, their deli bits n bobs and the fresh bread. Where I live I have M&S, Aldi and Home Bargains along the same row

No. sweet fa for me and I’m a regular

 

[Warpaint]

Just got the Christmas food catalog when I was in shopping. Omg they smash it out the park every year. I want it all

The chipolata pigs in blankets were well nice last year

 

[Renegadedancer]

At lunch I cooked the cauliflower cheese from the new frozen range, it was really good. Perhaps not quite as good as a fresh one but def good to have in the freezer for a change. Wasn't as impressed with the red cabbage, a bit too much garlic for my liking, but garlic aside it cooked well.

Is Cornish Cruncher similar to Dubliner cheese I wonder?

 

[StrawberryCream]

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

Iv had this we dipped garlic bread into it, it was ok but wouldn’t buy again, too spicy for me and the cheese flavour wasn’t strong enough

No one would judge you for eating 2 bits of cake in a day

They may if it was the whole cake....
