It’s M&S cinnamon buns right?

My favourite savoury option is the Lidl vegetable pizza.

What’s your nomination?

I miss soda bread, I can't find it anywhere anymore.

Lidl chocolate brownie. Last week I got some chocolate logs from the bakery and they were amazing too.

Hesperatum · 16/12/2023 19:47

Our local Sainsbury’s doesn’t do pain au raisin anymore. They were my favourite.☹️

Food of the Gods @ArcaneWireless

They absolutely are. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad one from anywhere.

The Lidl Low GI Cob, especially if served with some soft blue cheese

Booths almond croissants.

Isitisit · 16/12/2023 19:52

Tesco cinnamon tear’n’share buns.

MrsHughesPinny · 16/12/2023 19:55

Sainsbury’s chocolate twist

Lidl pecan plait or M&S apricot danish. Pity I've had a glass of wine or I'd have popped out for one right now!

@Perfectlystill

I had a BOGOF offer on these and didn’t fancy em. Filled with non-buyers remorse now.

xogossipgirlxo · 16/12/2023 20:39

Sourdough bread from lidl
and their doughnut with chocolate filling

apapuchi · 16/12/2023 21:27

Love Lidl pretzels, never leave without (at least) one.

The Co-op do - or did? - a jalapeño and cheese loaf that I loved. Haven't been in for ages so will need to have a look next time I'm there.

Agree!
And yes to salt and pepper bread and Lidl Portuguese tart.
But M and S choc chip shortbread anyone?
Also Co op Chelsea buns

IGotItFromAgnes · 16/12/2023 22:25

Tesco Scandi-style cinnamon buns are amazing

EtiennePalmiere · 16/12/2023 22:35

M&s cheesy pretzel, croissant and onion mini focaccia thing. Waitrose croissant and olive bread. Sainsburys pizza roll if hungover. Sorry that's a lot, I love carbs !

iwillnotstaycalm · 16/12/2023 22:39

Coop cheese twist hands down

clare8allthepies · 16/12/2023 23:00

Lidl cheese twist! We will never forget you 💔

EcoCustard · 16/12/2023 23:06

Lidl Belgian bun, croissant, pain au chocolat. M&S chocolate twist, rarely have one these days as the food store closed in town 😭. DH says Morrison’s Scotch pie is the closest thing to home, we armed a fair distance.

mondaytosunday · 16/12/2023 23:58

Lidl is very good on the bakery front! I like their croissants and their mini pizzas, my daughter likes their doughnuts. Can't say I've ever been impressed with M&S but their elephant ears are good.

Sunshineandrainbow · 17/12/2023 00:14

M AND S cheese scone!

Gingerkittykat · 17/12/2023 01:03

Lidl fresh pretzel.

I suspected that!
