RETAIL RANDOMS CORONA BEER / LIQUORICE EASTER EGGS

IF YOU THINK 2020 WAS A TOUGH YEAR FOR YOU... You’ve got to hand it to the good folks at Corona beer. While everybody has suffered under coronavirus, very few can claim to have suffered in quite the same way as the The Most Unfortunately Named Brand On The Planet. As was probably wise, the marketers clearly decided to just hunker down, cross their fingers and hope that it would all be over soon. So it’s strangely satisfying to see that they have clearly retained a sense of humour despite the mother of all poundings that they took in 2020. Cheers!

LIQUORICE AND MARMITE There aren’t many products that inspire the sort of love it or ‘absolutely cannot stand that damn stuff ’ reaction that Marmite is famous for eliciting. But liquorice is probably one of them. So the jury’s out on this range of confectionery from a Danish mob called Lakrids. We give you... the chocolate coated liquorice Easter egg. You have the choice of two options: the Twisted Banana Easter Egg or the Crispy Caramel Chocolate Coated Liquorice Easter Egg. We could tempt you with long-winded descriptions about how each egg is lovingly made with the finest ingredients, but we’re guessing that you stopped reading at ‘liquorice’. And they’re a snip at just £24 a pop.
