Who wants one? Sainsbury's own brand only I'm afraid. Cost of living and all that.

Only good thing about the commercialisation of Christmas is all xmas food available for months before.

My Dad was very pleased when they started making hot cross buns all year round.

Except Sainsbury's still haven't got their Christmas party food out (it's the only time of year they sell Jalapeño Poppers)

What an odd thing to associate with Christmas haha. You'd think they bring them out in summer.

I've not seen them in any supermarkets except over Christmas. You can get them from various takeaway places though! The closest I've seen in supermarkets the rest of the year are some Goose Island chili cheese bites (I think they're called), which are quite nice but not the same thing.

I wonder what marketing person decided, you know what Christmas needs, Jalapeño poppers next to the sprouts.
