What should I buy in M&S Foodhall?

[whereisthesummer22]

Brand new M&S foodhall has opened near me.. very excited! What should I buy?

Loads! Percy pigs originals. Their pistachio biscuits. Habenero spicy tortillas... crayfish and mango salad.
Will say that their own brand pesto is crap though.

I like a lot of the little salads - there's a nutty one, quinoa and kale, etc. They're very tasty and healthy and I don't think they're ultra processed either.

A bag of Chilli cheese clouds - addictive!

Chocolate covered bourbons
Scotch eggs with the runny middle, from the Gastro range

Their super green salad may be the best thing I have ever eaten. I say that as a dedicated cake-eater.

The Percy pigs and their own brand chocolate buttons are lovely.

They do slow cooked ham hock which is beautiful.

The frozen soffrito mix is good to have in the freezer for speedy bolognese/pasta sauces. Plus they have frozen flavoured individual butter pats for putting on steaks. Their Ndjua paste is good. Squeezy bottles of golden syrup and black treacle.

Second the super green salad.
The butter with salt crystals is very reasonably priced.

Oh and the Everything Sauce is not full of rubbish

Their pretzel thins are addictive - honey, mustard and onion ones are my fave

Those tubs of the millionaire bites. However once you’ve started you cannot stop. They are addictive as hell.

The little snack duos in the chiller: apple and peanut butter, or the satay chicken one are the best.

The beetroot and apple coleslaw is my new discovery.

Just realised that sounds gross written down but it’s lovely and zingy.

in the couscous and potato salad section they do a mexican bean salad and it is so delicious! All of the fruit taste better than the other supermarkets too. Combo mix crisps are also awesome!

Whatevers on the yellow stickers!

How can that possibly be? (Thanks for the user name idea ).

Their sushi
Colin the caterpillar cookies- SO GOOD!
Their real butter is delicious
Chicken Caesar dip and crusty bread

Bang bang prawn poke bowl, or any of their poke bowls really

Profiteroles!!

Herbs and spices are good value. I like the sun dried tomato paste, baked beans, hi juice cordial, spiced roast ham, gastro chicken Kiev, the smoked salmon that is strong/robust, salmon fillets in a bag of five, same for chicken breasts.

Everything really. I do 60% of my shop at M&S.

Their chocolate granola type cereal. So good it is criminal!

Chicken Caesar dip?! I’ve never seen it but will be hunting the shelves of our local M&S tomorrow🤩

best prawn cocktail …. Yummy

fruit … it lasts much longer than tesco etc

Soffrito mix from the freezer section is really handy for soups, pasta bases. Also chopped chilli, chopped garlic, chopped ginger.
Orange chocolate tart also from freezer section
Quiche
Roasted, salted almonds, pistachios, macadamia nuts
Cashel Blue in the cheese section

Right now their cherries and nectarines are lovely, expensive but there’s no bad ones in there and they seem to last longer than other super markets. The sweet potato tortilla chips are lovely too, and the lemon and lime yoghurt is my all time favourite treat.
