‘My two faves in one!’, shoppers divided on M&S’ new ‘love it or hate it’ food item that’s ‘perfect’ for the winter
FOOD fanatics and home cooks have been stunned by this latest find in M&S stores.
Despite offering buyers an “utterly irresistible” flavour, shoppers have divided over the brand new offering for Autumn.
Taking to Facebook to reveal the latest brand collaboration, M&S have joined forces with Marmite.
The “oozy, gooey, tangy new cheesebake” has been released exclusively with the supermarket giant and has been described as perfect for pairing with crusty bread.
Lovers of the yeast extract spread could even dive right in with a spoon or add it to their Christmas list as a stocking filler.
Staff at the Tunbridge Wells store unveiled a picture of the new cheesebake on shelves in a social media post which has already gathered love and hate.
With 247 comments, the product seems to have caught the eye of shoppers.
One user said: “Will give this a try thank you x.”
Another wrote: “Bet that’s banging.”
Someone else commented: “Cheese and wine night??”
A fourth put: “For the Christmas Eve board this year.”
While another said: “We need one of these!”
Anyone hoping to test the dip for themselves should phone ahead before visiting their local branch to avoid disappointment.
It is unclear from the post how much the tantalising offer will set buyers back.
Last month, a food editor for Marks and Spencer published an article on their site convincing shoppers to try Marmite Cheddar.
It is not the only item to leave haters of the spread cheesed off as the store already offers Loaded Cheese and Marmite Jacket Potatoes.
Earlier this week, savvy shoppers shared a Home Bargains dupe for a beloved chocolate snack at the same chain.
Others with a sweet-tooth found a hazelnut spread for a fraction of the original price.
The users claimed the fan-favourite M&S Hazelnut Creme was given a run for its money by the cheaper alternative.
How to cut the cost of your grocery shop
SAVING on your shop can make a big difference to your wallet. Here are some tips from comparison site Money.co.uk about how you can cut the cost of your shopping bills:
- Write yourself a list – Only buy items that you need. If it isn’t on your list, don’t put it in the trolley
- Create a budget – Work out a weekly budget for your food shopping
- Never shop hungry – you are far more likely to buy more food if your tummy is rumbling
- Don’t buy pre-chopped veggies or fruit – The extra they’ll charge for chopping can be eye watering
- Use social media – follow your favourite retailers to find out about the latest deals
- Be disloyal – You may want to go to different stores to find the best bargains
- Check the small print – It’s always worth checking the price per kg/lb/litre when comparing offers so you’re making a like for like decision as a bigger box won’t necessarily mean you get more
- Use your loyalty cards – Don’t be afraid to sign up to them all. They all work slightly differently – work out what bonus suits you better and remember to trade in your points for additional rewards
