haha yes old school, i remember. yummy.

Scampi & chicken in the basket both served in the local pub in the seventies lovely grub but destroyed like lots of other things by the health and safety freaks

@@kennethlapham4938 yes Kenneth, good days they were, Boddies bitter was 26pence a pint and like drinking a pint of cream, l must say Gaz has got me going with this one, I've not had scampi for ages!

enjoy pal

Memories scampi in a basket happy days 👍🙂

haha me too

Does it come in a plastic basket?? Kx

@@shandywarhol4444 lol

M+S do a fresh scampi ( oven cook ) . 10/10 !

I agree with you 100% on the Tartare sauce 👌

Tartare Sauce ... ooooo nooooo lol. Can't stand the stuff. Mum and I hate it but my sis loves it.

cheers Brian, i didnt know that.

Yes who going to pay £5 MAS rip off aldi good £1-99

@@leelaird1544 You get what you pay for I prefer the best just my preference

@@brianhiggins3090 no just some people not got the money far posh thing like you 🤣

cheers ken thanks 😊

cheers Carol, enjoy.

If you go to a harvester or anything like that they serve the whitby. It's decent but the M&S is definitely a level above I think.

haha noted.

ha ha , love it ! :)

'it's superiority' should read 'its superiority'. Its means belonging to it. It's means it is. Yes, I do shop at M&S! Hope you can see that I am being humorous. Well, a bit anyway as I do love a good stereotype- just off to my tailors to get my new Harris Tweed jacket fitted.

And Albatross softly playing in background.

M&S was always noted for quality if you were willing to pay the price. I had shirts and pants from there that lasted 20 years. British Home Stores was decent stuff too but M&S was better.

cheers Simon thanks 😊

They have not been £2 for months. £2.19 last week, probably will be nearer £3 by the end of the month.

Buy twice as many Aldi ones and a cheap tartare sauce haha

Cheers 👍👍💋

I appreciate that!

yes they were lovely and sweet James but pricey but thats M&S not any old food lol

@@BaldFoodieGuy definitely! Also I know my comment is late on this one, but it's actually the first time I've seen it. Maybe I should check my notifications 👍🏻

You’d expect any comparison to Marksies to be better , hence the price tag and their obvious good name 👍🏻 a dip or two and some chips or salad or both as Gareth stated not that different , in Gareth we trust 👍🏻😃

I'd rather have a bit of cod for £5+

I'd rather have the Aldi ones, they both comes from the same suppliers, no difference what so ever!!

Thanks for sharing Helen enjoy, thanks 😊

cheers John, thanks 😊

OOH thanks for that.information.Maths was.never my thing.

yeah, the m&s is approximately twice the price. i make it £2.80 for the aldi vs £5.50 for the m&s, like for like (weight and meat). so what you are paying £2.70 extra for is the better quality coating and size. but you could get two bags of the aldi for the same price. is the m&s twice as good as the aldi? probably 50-75% better (bringing the price up to £4.20 to £4.90 for the aldi). therefore, you pay a little bit extra (12-30%) for the privilege of eating m&s luxury. not much in it at the end of the day. waitrose, and maybe m&s, are great value when you go there for bargains (not sure if m&s discount much). then you really get a good deal. then again, tesco's does good same day/end of date discounts. so, like for like, you are paying appx 12-30% extra for the premium experience as far as i can tell, which equates to 60p to £1.30 out of a £5.50 bag. Do you want to pay 60p to £1.30 as a surcharge (throw away cost) for that m&s deliciousness? £4.20 vs £5.50. Or £4.90 vs £5.50. Yes, that's why m&s and waitrose can survive on a lot of us going in for bits and bobs, not full blown shopping sprees

I tell you what I prefer MS foods ,,,,yes I know MS is more expensive but the Aldie looks half-size Here in Cyprus MS is the place to go for value before Woolies closedown it was the best then MS

Yummy pal

Thank you so much 🙂

No apologies needed Miles, cheers for watching pal.

cheers Anna.

Cheers Paul

Cheers Ross

thanks Jim 😊

Cheers pal thanks very much

Sounds great!

Aw that sounds nice 😊

Cheers Gina, I appreciate it 👍👍😘

haha lucky they didnt find me then lol

I think you are getting half the scampi and double the coating, it probably reformed scampi from aldi

You could tell by his reaction though the aldi was nowhere near. I've had the aldi. It's passable for the price but nowhere near the likes of youngs or whitby foods for taste and quality. I may have to try the m and s though

No problem 👍

cheers John, got that song in my head now, fiddler on the roof isnt it ha.

yes ive had it too i think one of my first videos.

@@BaldFoodieGuy oh missed it 🍀🇬🇧👍🏼

cheers Bill lovely story. Treat yourself.

Glad it was helpful! thanks I appreciate your comment.

yes it was delicious Pat.

I thought that was going to be an advert for a certain drink.... Carlsberg doesn't do scampi but if they did, It'd probably be the best scampi in the world 😋 Still, scampi & chips and a cool pint of Carlsberg. Nice!

I appreciate that!

Glad it was helpful!

Enjoy pal.

Thanks for watching! thanks 😊

Glad you enjoyed it

cheers Bill. You're welcome.

haha cheers Robert.

Yep and at £1 for 125grms a better option

gourmet and wetherspoons?

@@nn-uj1iv Steaks are surprisingly good.

Thank you 🙂

Thanks

@@BaldFoodieGuy Keep it up. and you might want to compare Batt's (Lidl) Tomato Ketchup with Heinz. Batt's is a third of the price and tastes exactly the same imho. Apologies if u already have.

Oh lovely pal enjoy 👍👍😋😋

haha yes

cheers Sophie

Glad you like them! xx

Sounds great!

cheers Arthur all the best mate.

There is nothing special about langoustine it's only called that to increase the price as they are cought in creels while prawn tails are all cought by trawlers

@@HootMaRoot No surprises there. I've never been a fan of Scampi but my sister was and the fish processing plants re the different 'brands' available vary enormously. Some are to quote her words 'Of little substance'.. more batter et than Scampi.. 😉

@@arthurdanielles4784 I was a fisherman on a trawler and creel boat for 15 years+ and when I see the price of shellfish and fish in the shops I wonder where the massive price increase comes from as these small bags of scampi only have at most 5p worth of prawns in them if your lucky

cheers Barbie.

Cheers Sandra yes it's a good treat 😋😋👍

Thank you. Yes my good lady works with the public and doesn't want to be on camera my kids are young so keeping that private 👍
