Move over Tim Tams, there’s a new snack causing a stir in the supermarket aisle.
A cult favourite from the UK has officially landed at Coles, and shoppers are already racing to get their hands on it. The snack in question? Marks & Spencer’s famous Percy Pig lollies.
The soft, pig-shaped treats have built a huge following in Britain over the years, and now Aussies are finally getting the chance to see what all the fuss is about.
A British Favourite Arrives Down Under
Percy Pig has been a staple on UK shelves for more than 30 years, becoming one of Marks & Spencer’s most iconic products.
Known for their soft texture and fruity flavour, the pink pig-shaped lollies have developed a cult-like following, with many British expats in Australia thrilled to finally spot them in a local supermarket.
Coles has brought in several Percy Pig varieties, along with a range of Colin the Caterpillar treats, giving shoppers a taste of two of Britain’s most-loved confectionery brands.
Shoppers Are Loving It
The arrival has sparked plenty of excitement online, with social media users sharing photos of their finds and encouraging others to head in-store before stocks disappear.
For some shoppers, it’s a nostalgic taste of home. For others, it’s a chance to finally try the snack they’ve been hearing about for years. Either way, the response suggests Percy Pig could become one of Coles’ most popular imported treats.
Worth The Hype?
British shoppers have been obsessed with Percy Pig for decades, and now it’s Australia’s turn to decide whether the famous pink lolly lives up to its reputation. If the early reaction is anything to go by, these little pigs won’t be staying on shelves for long.
So if you’ve been looking for an excuse to wander down the lolly aisle, this could be it.
