In today’s Irish Times, food critic Tom Doorley taste tests supermarket meal deals, and he’s pretty impressed with them all.

This time last year, the idea of a decent quality three-course meal with a bottle of wine costing €10-€12.50 simply didn’t cross anyone’s mind. Back then, ready meals were an afterthought, not something you might plan your weekend’s dining around.

Then, unexpectedly, M&S changed everything with their dine in for two option. Dunnes and Tesco followed, while Superquinn devised its own unique version – Meal Deals for four. Do you like these meal deals? What do you think stands out?
