Their loss / our gain. One of the nicest shop bought frozen pizzas I've bought in ages.

Bearing in mind that 200g is half a pot, if you have the whole tub which I was going to do today (fills a bowl), it would have been 120% of recommended saturated fat! Won't be buying it ever again.

I can't eat them either unless they're proper floury spuds, which Aldi don't seem to do unfortunately (not my local store anyway) There's nothing worse than a horrible watery spud. Currently buying Ardfert Queens in Tesco. Lovely with a big dollop of butter and some salt. That's proper butter by the way, let there be none of this 'spread' malarkey now

I get them in the local greengrocers and I have seen them in Dunnes, but always later in the year. Probably won't be in Aldi.https://www.potato.ie/varieties/golden-wonder/ I always steam my potatoes but even then care is needed to stop the floury ones breaking up.

Got some mini wraps that are either new or I at least, haven't seen before. Only thing is, unlike the usual large wraps the, the b/b date is only 10 days or so not a few months like the large ones, don't get caught out like I nearly did. Was a good excuse to have some rasher wraps though
