Help me create a truly unhinged M&S Ocado shop

[neverhappenedtopablopicasso]

DH abroad for a week so alone with DC. Ocado slot booked. Will be on my period and they've been monstrous lately. M&S/Ocado treats are required - what are your best suggestions? I WFH so need lunches as well as snacks and evening meals. What are you throwing in the trolley? Online shopping is an art and I want to make this one a genius one!

Absolutely, but you know this means you have to share your top pics or the list of what you actually order.

As my DH is a Mark, BIL calls us Marks & Spender because I'm always ordering in M&S. Can't help it, love a new find and truly enjoy their food over other places.

The M&S king prawn bhuna is banging. Wang a folded flatbread in the toaster while it microwaves and you have a perfect bhuna scooper accompaniment. Treat-wise the apple hot cross buns are lovely, as are the caramelised blonde pecans. And you can't go wrong with a twofer on the cake tubs either. Oh, the lemon and lime jaffa cakes! The new 'healthier' brain balls are pretty good too.

Sweet: M&S fully loaded millionaires brownie mini bites

Savoury: Blacksticks blue cheese

Healthy: Natoora berries - blueberries and raspberries are amazing.

Burrata size warning. I’ve not tried it yet because at that price I want to enjoy it (& am recovering well!). I’ve never had a moist cheesy comestible that is so small. All the ones I’ve eaten in restaurants have been the size of the oranges that get squeezed for breakfast juice.

I also bought lots of nice Italian biscuits to go with coffee - cantucci and amaretti.

I'm off dairy due to baby's CMPA, but fantasising about this stuff. It's delicious!

Yes, but that is exactly the vibe I'm hoping for

Don't forget to have a nice long bath:
Cowshed bath salts + lotions
Cocktails (to sip in the bath) - Moth are pretty good. (or go crazy and buy a cocktail shaker and make your own)

The Picard mini-croissants are v good too.
And Crosta Mollica pizzas.

Fazer Marianne Chocolate Filled Mint Candies;
Felix Wild Lingonberry Jam (fab with any cheese sandwich, or meatballs; they also used to have the best bilberry jam, but I cannot find it any longer);
MOI Apple filled Mini Beignets (or Speculoos beignets);
Picard Pasteis De Nata (and generally Picard frozen pastries are very good);
Picard Apple Tart A La Normande;
San Pellegrino San Bitter Aperitif Glass;
Rodda's Cornish Salted Butter (the best);

Fizzy Percy Pig tails

Forget chocolate. Get all the crisps they have.

Pretzel fudge mini bites!
Agree with the Picard recommendations. They do a goats cheese and spinach pastry thing which is lovely.

Pistachio and almond cookies
Almond biscuits
Sultana butter biscuits
Percy pigs
Cornichons
Smoked cheddar
Serrano ham

A bottle of rum

Yo-ho

Sorry to hijack the thread but just to mention - the whole earth drizzle-able style peanut butter made this possible for us at home and DS apparently doesn't know the difference (and he's pretty picky)

My previous plans for lots of 3 for £8 deli seem so basic now.

The Crunchy Golden Blond Chocolate Spread is like whizzed up Kinder Buenos but we have it as a school holidays only rule otherwise no proper breakfasts would get eaten.

I've added loads of recommendations already, plus Bombay Mix and chocolate pistachios.

Neenaw neenaw Ocado have Tim-Tams!

At least 3 flavours of ice cream.
Cheese
Sour dough biscuits for cheese
Chilli jam
Granola
Jersey milk
Crinkle cut chips
Mayonnaise

Crayfish and mango salad for lunches.
Raspberry cru ch chocolate.
Belgian flaked truffles.

I'll be round to pick it up 😘

I've always wanted to get the Tsar smoked salmon fillet. Looks delicious

Jeez I've just read everyone's suggestions. They all sound divine. And after stocking up my biscuit cupboard today will need to go back out and try these chocolate covered custard creams.

Also, as you're a savoury person the extremely cheesy hot cross buns are a must! Get two packs... trust me

dragon fruit lots of fresh baguettes some champagne and 5 bags of sour cream and chive reduced fat crisps and order a tray of catering sandwiches and a whole party cake or catering desert platter.

M&S New York Deli Dip

Buy 5 Colin's, chop the heads and tails off 4 and create the ultimate cut and shunt,

Hmm me thinks i need to inspect the M&S dips......
Anything dark chocolate anyone can suggest, the chocolate covered custard creams sound good but milk chocolate mehhh.
My suggestion would be a luxury fish soup & then add extra fish/prawns, absolutely divine 😋

Longley Farm Cottage Cheese (even if you hate cottage cheese, this is amazing)
