I was shocked after trying M&S’ game-changing microwave poached eggs – they are 10/10 perfect and ideal for lazy cooks

MANY people love preparing poached eggs for breakfast – but they can be a faff to get perfect.

However, one shopper pointed out that M&S is now selling pre-packaged , and all you need to do is stick them in the microwave for less than one minute.

Liv, who posts under @lifeoflivsx, uploaded a video trying out the product to see if it was all it is cracked up to be.

She shared: “So Marks and Spencers have made a big statement that they sell the perfect pre-made poached egg.

“So not gonna lie, as an egg obsessed girly, I had to give it a go.”;

She said she picked them up from near to the breakfast pots and fruit in her local shop – and was ready to give them a go.

According to the M&S website, they contain 7g of protein and are “ideal for breakfast in a rush.”;

Holding up the packet, which had two white eggs that appeared she said: “I can’t say I’m enticed by how they look, but all you need to do is apparently put them in the microwave for 40 seconds and then they are perfect.”;

Liv said she picked the two eggs up for £2.60 and said she is aware that she could make them for herself normally but wanted to try them out.

After sticking them in the microwave for less than a minute, she was left with yolky, runny eggs, which looked incredible.

She added: “I’m pretty impressed. Oh my god look. Now I probably wouldn’t buy these again because it would be a very lazy, expensive habit to do, but 10 out of 10 Marks and Spencers, well done.”;

Many people were left scratching their heads at the new product – and the cost.

One said: “Who can’t make a poached egg.”;

A second wrote: “2.60 for two eggs!”;

However, some foodies seemed very keen to try the poached eggs for themselves.

Another pointed out: “This is so handy for people who struggle to lift pans etc.”;

A third commented: “For everyday? no. for like i want to feel fancy this sunday? yes!”;
