M&S Percy Pig Globetrotting - 170g

Percy Pig is the sweet M&S is best known for, a pink, chewy pig face that has become part of the furniture in British food halls. Grown adults buy them by the bag and claim they are for the children. The children have heard this before.

When you move abroad, it is the small habits you miss most: the lunchtime M&S run, the bag in the coat pocket, the quiet pinch from someone else's. A bag of Percy turns up and suddenly it is a Tuesday on the high street again.

This one is a sharing bag, in theory. Fold the top over and it sits happily in a cool, dry cupboard, assuming it gets the chance. It earns its keep in a lunchbox, on a film night, or on a long drive, which seems fitting for a pig who has been globetrotting.

People tend to pick Percy up with a few other M&S favourites, or with a handful of British sweets to make up a proper bag of home. It also makes a very good thank you for anyone who still talks about the food hall.
