Marks & Spencer's Christmas food range is hotly anticipated every year - but now you don't need to wait all year to enjoy one of the most popular items.

From delicious Christmas liqueurs to Christmas Jumper Colin the Caterpillar, M&S fans look forward to stocking up with their favourite items from the British retailer every year. And there's one particular item fans have been longing to get hold of year-round - and now they can.

Foodies will be familiar with Very Merry Munch - a salty-sweet chocolatey mix with green candy coated peanuts, pretzels and popcorn. They usually come in adorable tins, or refill packs, and are a staple to bring out when you have guests around at Christmas.

M&S have regularly delighted fans by bringing out special versions of this mix at various times of the year, such as the Love You Very Munch for Valentine's Day, and the more recent Player of the Munch, for Father's Day/the Euros. But now, M&S has finally confirmed they are bringing them out in all year packaging - and this time it's called the Very Moreish Munch.

A staff member at M&S Stockport took to TikTok to share the brilliant news, saying: "This is not a drill. By popular demand, you'll never guess what's back all year-round at M&S. The Merry Munch. But, it's the Very Moreish Munch now. It's not Christmas."

The staff member did explain that while they have a version for the Euros and Father's Day, and also brought them out at Halloween, this one is "here to stay so you can enjoy it whenever you want".

Fans of the British retailer were beyond thrilled at the announcement, with one person saying: "This makes me so happy! I can't get enough," and another simply adding: "My FAVE".

Under a separate video, posted by M&S White City, London, others commented: "Addictive and lives up to the moreish claim," while another said: "It looks like the best one yet."

The Original Very Moreish Munch retails at £3.50 for a 300g bag. The description of the item says it's an "iconic mix of milk and white chocolate popcorn, salted and dark chocolate pretzels, milk chocolate peanuts and caramel almonds."
