Iceland is selling Turkey Twizzlers from this week
2020 is looking up!
The news 2020 has needed came last week, when Bernard Matthews hinted that Turkey Twizzlers could be coming back.
Well, the news has finally been officially confirmed and it truly does match up to the self-defined ‘comeback of the century’.
It’s been 15 years since the savoury treats were taken away from us following a controversial Jamie Oliver programme about school dinners.
But finally, they are back! They’re set to be a little different to what you remember though…
Bernard Matthews has spiced things up with two flavours, Original Tangy Tomato and Chilli Cheese.
And to make sure even Jamie Oliver will be happy, the new flavours are healthier and tastier than before, containing low sat fats and lower calories.
They’re still the same unique shape, though, so you can take a trip down memory lane with your tea.
Nutritionist, Dr Sarah Schenker, said: “Turkey Twizzlers have listened to the public and completely transformed themselves into a much-improved product.
“They now have a nutritional profile they can be confident in. High in good quality protein and lower in fat, saturates, salt and sugar.
“You can create a balanced meal by teaming them with plenty of veg such as a corn on the cob and broccoli.”
They will be available exclusively in Iceland from August 20th, before being rolled out across all major retailers.
A pack of eight will set you back £3 in the frozen aisle.
