Sainsbury’s is selling pigs in blankets and brussels sprouts flavoured teabags and we think they sound gross
The pigs in blankets flavour apparently tastes of sage and rosemary, while the brussels sprouts brew is a green tea
THEY usually belong in your Christmas dinner, but now Sainsbury's has launched two controversial teas that it claims taste like pigs in blankets and brussels sprouts.
The pigs in blankets brew is said to taste of sage and rosemary, while the supermarket claims a brussels sprouts cuppa will be a vegetable-infused green tea.
We haven't had a chance to try them, and we're not particularly desperate to, but they could make for a fun novelty Christmas gift.
The packets contain 20 teabags and they cost £1 a box, so it would be an inexpensive way to prank a relative.
They were first spotted by a Sainsbury's shopper who shared a snap of the teas in the .
They've whipped tea fans into a frenzy, with more than 2,000 people commenting on the weird flavours.
Nathan Dussie wrote: "I'm gonna replace all the teabags at work with the sprouts ones."
Erin Cole asked: "This can't be real... surely?"
Ami Setterington added: "Naahhhhh I'll keep those on the shelf."
Emma Louise Sharpe also wrote: "I love tea but this is too far."
The teas are currently on sale at Sainsbury's stores but are not yet available online.
