By accident, we discovered Tesco Carbonara Pasta Tray Bake. It just tastes so good on its own, but my wife adds extra ham and broccoli florets and strong cheddar when it is fresh out of the oven.   

It passes a two part comfort food test - "I'll just have one more mouthful" and it tastes great cold next day for a snack.

One of my OH's favourite meals of the day is toast and marmalade.  However due to food intolerances he has to avoid the standard marmalade and his favourites are lime, lemon and grapefruit

Sadly R*ses lime marmalade seems to have disappeared from this area in recent years replaced by a lime and lemon version.   However as the nearest shops don't sell any that he can eat I have been searching the internet to try and keep him supplied and was amazed to discover that R*ses  lime marmalade is still available online.    I live in Herefordshire and just wondered whether this lime marmalade is normally available in other parts of the country??

Last time I was in Morrisons (Brough, East Yorkshire) they had Roses Lime Marmalade on the shelf, I was tempted to buy a jar but decided against it as I'm the only one that would eat it.

Our larger Tesco have it but the smaller one doesn’t, I guess it goes on shelf space  :-\

You are right - Our nearby small market town has a Coop and if I venture to other towns I usually go to Waitrose or Sainsbury and neither are large stores.   I can see in the future I might have to brave Morrisons who appear to stock it based on the companies website

Sometimes if you do a search on Ebay you can get a good independent or small maker and they usually post it out.

Ultimate comfort food?
Steak and Kidney pudding, gooey with its own good gravy, with just enough chips, and another veg of your own choice....
