Why M & S getting on board is a huge step!
There’s been a lot of talk about the vegan range that Marks and Spencer have launched. Comments include it being the most modern thing they’ve done and it being a big deal because they haven’t started small and added to the range after trialing it, but rather launched a number of options from the onset. Others are excited because M & S’s products have a reputation for being more costly and extravagant than the other supermarkets. Thus their customers who may not shop elsewhere, may expose them to vegan food for the first time.
Pre-order fresh food at M & S
Marks and Spencer have some foods which can be ordered and then collected in store. Some of them can be collected in 3 days and others are available after 5 days. They include:-
Mini Fresh Fruit Kebabs
Crudité Selection
Fruit Platter
Spring Rolls
Luxury Salad Bowl
Orzo Pasta and Roasted Tomato Salad
Burgers
Berry Salad Bowl
Shredded Kale and Cranberry Salad
Mediterranean Roasted Vegetables
M & S launch Plant Kitchen
In addition to ordering fresh food, Marks and Spencer now have a range of ready meals which they sell in store. Suraj, my hubby, has tried a couple of things from Plant Kitchen and he really enjoyed the Mushroom Stroganoff. Their range includes:-
Mushroom stroganoff
Margherita pizza
Green Thai curry
Roast aubergine
No beef burger
No pork sausoyges
Sweetcorn and chickpea burger
Cauliflower popcorn bites
Sweet potato biryani wrap
Rainbow veg sushi wrap
Roasted veg sandwich

“When people ask me why I don’t eat meat or any other animal products, I say, ‘Because they are unhealthy and they are the product of a violent and inhumane industry.”
