Help please!
I’ve looked in Sainsbury’s and Waitrose in both cheese and cream sections and no joy. There’s never any staff to ask!
Any suggestions please to help my craving!!

Some in my fridge

TheLovelinessOfDemons · 06/07/2021 19:15

I'm pretty sure I've seen it in Sainsbury's in the past, but I haven't really looked recently.

Getyourarseofffthequattro · 06/07/2021 19:15

I bought some in aldi not so long ago. They usually have it.

Reallybadidea · 06/07/2021 19:15

My local Aldi has some, maybe worth checking yours?

otterbaby · 06/07/2021 19:15

They definitely sell it in tesco.

Macncheeseballs · 06/07/2021 19:16

Maybe it's hiding a small horse

MrsPnut · 06/07/2021 19:16

It should be in the cheese section, usually next to the mozzarella and ricotta.

PiuVinoPerFavore · 06/07/2021 19:17

Marks and spencer definitely sell it but I think it's next to the cream rather than the cheese

mateysmum · 06/07/2021 19:17

It's usually with the cheese near the ricotta and mozzarella. If they are out of stock try Lidl, theirs is pretty good but any supermarket should have it.

Theforest · 06/07/2021 19:18

Definitely sell it in Asda

RamblingFar · 06/07/2021 19:18

They have it in large Tescos, I buy it all the time. You can use plain cream cheese instead if you need it in a recipe.

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 06/07/2021 19:18

Damn, I came here to say to look behind the small horse but Macncheeseballs beat me!

Definitely in tesco and Aldi!

Waitrose definitely has it. The staff there are so helpful, even if you have to go up to customer services because there isn't anyone on the shop floor you can see

JayAlfredPrufrock · 06/07/2021 19:23

Snort

Gindrinker43 · 06/07/2021 19:34

I get mine in AldiSmile

Tiredanawfullot · 06/07/2021 19:34

I’ve had it from Sainsburys, aldi and Tesco in the cheese section.

irresistibleoverwhelm · 06/07/2021 19:37

m&s normally have it!

gigi556 · 06/07/2021 19:38

I've seen it at Aldi next to the ricotta

ShowOfHands · 06/07/2021 19:40

Once you've located some, could you help me find pudding rice? I've been looking for months.

TheFlis12345 · 06/07/2021 19:40

Tesco always have it, as do M&S, but M&S is nearly triple the price! Probably much better quality but I really can’t tell the difference once I have made icing with it.

purplesequins · 06/07/2021 19:40

yes, some supermarkets like to hide it with the cheese, others with the yoghurts.

MagnoliaBeige · 06/07/2021 19:41

I bought two last week from Sainsburys and only ended up using one, sorry Blush

ChrissyPlummer · 06/07/2021 19:42

@ShowOfHands If you’re anywhere in the North West/Lake District then Booths have pudding rice.

the80sweregreat · 06/07/2021 19:42

Tesco does it ( normally the big stores)
