Food & Drink

Christmas may be months away still but those looking to prepare for the festive season can do so at their local supermarket.

Morrisons has followed Marks and Spencer in launching their 2023 food range which includes bespoke dishes only available to those who book a pre-order slot online.

Shoppers can find everything from meat and fish wellingtons, pigs in blankets and yule logs in the line of seasonal treats, as well as a brand new roast in the bag-style turkey.

More than 100 Christmas dishes are now available through the retailer’s “Food to Order” service having launched today.

Shoppers will have to book a slot as soon as possible, however, as the pre-order availability won’t last for long.
