Watching Gareth enables me to see if they actually taste like the product they’re supposed to be imitating and besides, Gareth tries stuff from all the supermarkets.
I don’t know…Iceland has always been equated with chavs in my mind. I think of Kerry Katona dancing around her posh council house with trays of party food for her guests which include Peter Andre and Tulisa.
I had one on my way back from work a while ago and would stop in for frozen pizzas or lasagne every now and then.
It's not a bad spread and now that I'm back in the UK with an air fryer it's got all the good I need (I still work on them though)

Maybe I should stop being silly and try Iceland out sometime.

Well if you fancy it I can think up some recommendations suited just for you
I’ll let you know when I’m going. It won’t be this week. I won’t be next week. It’ll be some week.

I wouldn’t buy any, I’d be tempted to pick them up and throw them about the place.
They've got it all Bobby!
Everything!
Cathedral City…cottage pie, cauliflower cheese, pigs in blankets, hashbrown toasties, potato gratins, mac and cheese, potato and bacon bake, triple cheese toasties, croquettes, dauphinoise, pancetta and red onion mash, cheese an bacon loaded skins, cheese and chive potato skins, bolognaise pasta, chicken and bacon pasta, lasagne, kievs, fondue and so much more
Yeah, you'd probably best leave it Bobby

See?!! This is the reason why I’ve never gone! Chavs would love vall of that wouldn’t they!
Do they still do their ‘childhood favourites’ range where they cash in on nostalgia? Turkey dinosaurs and that?

They still have turkey dinosaurs Bobby but I went looking for turkey unicorns because Ryan (A former poster from here) was talking about how much he really loved them right before covid hit
Couldn't find them
There I was, stuck in China and the only thing I could think of was crappy turkey nuggets shaped like dinosaurs
Then I spent the next 3 years in East Africa and guess what…they don't sell them there either!
So when I finally arrive, completely drained and living in an Airbnb with all mod cons (No airfryer though!) I go and look for some at my nearest Iceland. Nothing! I go to the largest Iceland in this city. Nothing! I go online and see that it was a limited edition for Pride run and that I'll never get to have a crappy turkey unicorn
It's OK though, I've made up for it plenty with loads of foods since then.
You should too. With the Cathedral City Cheddar Cheese range at Iceland*

I’ll give them a go one day maybe instead of trashing them. I prefer eating the cheese just on its own though, it’s very moreish and I can eat an entire block in one sitting.
Perhaps they’ll bring Turkey Unicorns back out to coincide with the launch of season two of Doctor Who.

I'm over the turkey unicorn thing now Bobby. It was just that not being able to have it that made me want them all the more. Sort of like a scotch pie from Greg's the Bakers. You dream about it for years and then when you finally get one again you go "Oh right!".
Some things just taste better in your imagination and other things, like the Cathedral City Cheddar Range exclusive to Iceland, actually taste as good as you want them to be

Yes I suppose it is a bit like when I finally got around to trying out the famous £1 burger man in Blackpool who sells burgers for just one pound!! I bought a burger off of him and I’ll be honest…it was a decent enough perfectly edible fairground type burger which was the best that I could have expected.

As long as you didn't build it up into a super duper thing in your imagination then you can't be let down by having high expectations
And good food is good, particularly when you're not expecting it Bobby

Exactly! Take the other week as an example, I ordered the stuffing stacker from KFC and my expectation was for it to be crap like all of these Maccers/KFC/Burger King efforts are, but I was surprised to find it was actually quite tasty.

The only thing with that was you didn't know the cranberry sauce was advertised as spicy and you enjoyed it all the same anyways.
It wasn't until I mentioned that when you noticed that it wasn't noticeably spicy and felt a little let down. he food however done exactly what you wanted it to do and so much more
For me that's what Christmas is all about. Aiming for about ground level but an uplifting wind carries your arrow just that little further

That’s how I approach all christmases. I go into them all not expecting much and the rest is just a bonus.
