M&S has appeared to split opinions this week after revealing a new £5 treat, which some shoppers have appeared to be quite unsure about. While some shoppers have described the item as being “totally divine” others have described the concept as “not okay”, with one shopper even suggesting the treat may be a late April Fool joke. Shoppers have spotted new Pecan and Salted Caramel Blondies in M&S ‘s food halls this week. However some shoppers have been shocked to see they contain a “hint of Marmite”. The item, which appears to already be causing controversy between some shoppers, is one of the latest items to be introduced as part of M&S’s new Marmite range .
