Morrisons shoppers are sprinting to their local stores after learning a surprising snack is part of the supermarket's meal deal, with some describing it as 'dangerous' for their waistlines.
Meal Deal Revelation
Meal deals have become a staple of UK food culture, with millions picking one up daily for lunch during busy work or school days. Typically, a meal deal includes a main item like a sandwich, wrap, or pasta pot, a snack such as fruit pots, crisps, chocolate bars, or boiled eggs, and a drink. These offers are available at most supermarkets, including Boots and smaller convenience stores.
While many are drawn to the popular Tesco meal deal, social media users have suggested that Morrisons might offer a better option, thanks to one of its snack choices.
Reddit Post Sparks Excitement
A post on the Meal Deal Rates subreddit featured a picture of a Morrisons meal deal, with the user selecting a chicken and bacon Caesar wrap, a Starbucks mocha frappuccino, and a two-pack of Mr Kipling Angel Slices. Commenters were stunned to discover that the cakes could be included in the deal.
One user exclaimed: 'You can get angel slices in a meal deal?! This is dangerous for my waistline.' Another added: 'You can get angel slices in a meal deal?? This is groundbreaking info for me.'
Opinions on the overall meal deal were divided. Some argued that the combination of a sugary drink and cakes made the meal 'too sweet.' One person warned: 'Diabetes and high blood pressure, if you're eating these regularly.' Another wrote: 'That is a lot of sugar.' However, a defender countered: 'Straight 10/10. People who say this is too sweet are dead inside.'
Tesco's Ice Cream Surprise
This news follows a similar discovery by Tesco shoppers, who recently found that ice cream is part of the supermarket's meal deal range. Based on a TikTok video, individual ice creams from the freezer, including Magnum, Feast, Twister, and Oreo ice cream sandwiches, should qualify. However, shoppers are advised to look for the yellow meal deal sticker to confirm before purchasing.
