Help me create a truly unhinged M&S Ocado shop

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!

I read the OP far too quickly and thought Ocado have been monstrous lately. Was trying to figure out if you were trying to punish them with a random and complicated shopping list 😂

Ineedanewsofa · 11/03/2025 20:47

M&S chocolate raisins
The gastro pub mini prawn toast
Leobe rose
Fox’s Chocolatey biscuits
Pasta Evangelist Prawn ravioli
Garlic focaccia
Sushi platter (might just be a seasonal thing)
All the hot cross buns

EmmaMaria · 11/03/2025 20:51

Tiramasu. At least 3 lots of it.

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.

I‘ve always wanted to do this!!

(the catering platter)

Teenagequeenwithaloadedgun · 11/03/2025 20:55

The chocolate covered custard creams are created by God
Tony's Chocoloney
Houmous and some El Paso paprika tortilla chips to dip in
Cheese and onion crispbakes
Tartare sauce potato salad
Green dip

Cushionseams · 11/03/2025 20:55

If I were to choose just one thing to buy from M&S it would be one of the iced lemon muffins.

Happycow · 11/03/2025 20:57

I thought i was good at m&s shopping but my word this is on another level!! Just off to book an ocado slot and the basket is HEAVING now 😆

OatFlatWhiteForMe · 11/03/2025 21:03

We had the Prawn Bhuna and mixed starter as part of the £15 2 mains and 2 sides deal tonight, it was nice.

OldCottageGreenhouse · 11/03/2025 21:03

I love how on one thread, it's a competition as to how few UPFs each poster is consuming and on this one it's 'Fuck it, let's indulge!'

I'm on Camp M&S 🧍🏼‍♀️

Crikeyalmighty · 11/03/2025 21:09

@RubyGemStone also my specialist subject -

Prawn crackers
Chocolate covered custard creams
Honey and mustard deli sausages
Whipped feta dip thing
Battered potato slices
Hot smoked salmon
Those deli mini peppers stuffed with ricotta
Potato salad
Battered tempura chicken
Large chicken and leek pie

Crikeyalmighty · 11/03/2025 21:10

Oh forgot the£3.50 mixed Indian starters pack - amazing value

Needtosoundoffandbreathe · 11/03/2025 21:22

Has anyone mentioned the M&S blonde chocolate caramelised pecans yet?

I work a couple of minutes from an M&S Simply Food. Not good for the wallet and lots of temptation!

ghostbusters · 11/03/2025 21:50

I too late to add my 10 p worth?

As well as the NY deli pastrami dip M&S also do a hot smoked salmon /caper dip combo as well as caesar salad dip. All are out of this world!
Slather on bread or warm toast, dollop on cracker or oatcakes or dunk in your favourite nacho crisps!
Sorry, not sorry!

ifIwerenotanandroid · 11/03/2025 21:50

Iced lemon & sultana danish thingies (2 pack): tasty, soft, squishy, luscious.

BCBird · 11/03/2025 21:52

Second the dark chocolate chillies

Mwnci123 · 11/03/2025 21:59

These are M&S things but I don't know if they're available through Ocado:
Hot smoked salmon salad
Crafted sourdough baguette
Eggstra Gooey Choccy Eggs (bloody gorgeous, these are)
Toasted Marcona almonds or any other almonds really- M&S ones are always lovely
Spanish anchovies

Mwnci123 · 11/03/2025 22:00

And Cornish Cruncher vintage cheddar!

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.

Edited

To be fair, that burrata is delicious (& I slightly justify the price by reusing the very cute pot for kids lunch snacks too), but only when on offer!

dancingwhilstfacingthemusic · 11/03/2025 22:11

Thanks @Fillybuster , I’m hoping so!

Can I just add truffled cheddar to the mix. Also, the bloomin gorgeous stone-in medjool dates.

I feel a delivery coming on once I’ve worked through the current wonders in my kitchen.

Isn’t unhinged more like a bizarre mix of unrelated things, such as

toilet wipes
dumpling mix
dried shiitake mushrooms

I used to always buy M&S loo roll with the patterns printed, sometimes it's stars sometimes it's flowers, at Christmas it's holly, it just cheered me up!

Then I discovered Bazoo and now order in bulk as I like to bright paper wrappers... but I always have M&S Christmas loo roll in December!

Goatblu · 11/03/2025 22:17

M & S dark chocolate covered sour cherries

Negangirlxx · 11/03/2025 22:21

M&S Birthday Cake (doesn’t matter if it’s not your birthday, they’re bloody DELICIOUS).

Double Cream Bourbon Biscuits

Chocolate Viennese Sandwich Biscuits

Colin the Caterpillar Chocolate Pudding

Chocolate Brownie Mousse Cakes

Raspberry Jam Sponges

The list is endless! 😍

Fillybuster · 11/03/2025 23:05

Forest Feast do a whole range of chocolate covered fruit and nuts (I think M&S might be “inspired” by them) also on Ocado. Along with the dark chocolate cherries (which are brilliantly un-sweet) they also do scarily more-ish dark chocolate salted almonds.

Also:

Snowdonia Rock Star wax coated cheddar
M&S Creamy mushroom & black truffle sauce
Belazu smoked chilli nut mix
M&S stuffed vine leaves

A mini eggs Easter egg. The big one
