TikTok Reviewer Gives Iceland’s £25 Christmas Dinner Box 8/10, Cites Gravy Shortfall

Sold as serving four, the frozen bundle drew praise for improved turkey with roast potatoes rated spot on.

Overview

  • Iceland is selling a £25 frozen Christmas dinner box it says serves up to four, bundling a turkey breast joint, roast potatoes, vegetables, stuffing and pigs in blankets.
  • Food reviewer Stuart Snowden, known as Grumpy Northern Foodie, unboxed, cooked and reviewed the kit in a TikTok video.
  • He scored the meal 8 out of 10 after finding the portions reasonable and the overall taste better than expected.
  • Snowden said the turkey had improved on last year’s version and he welcomed the inclusion of stuffing.
  • He flagged too little gravy for four servings and the lack of Yorkshire puddings, though he noted the instruction sheet made cooking simple.
