The most shocking part of the new Waitrose Christmas campaign? A £50 “turkey bauble”, a spherical meat centrepiece sold with a sachet of honey and orange glaze.
The idea concerns me, a 1.3kg piece of boneless turkey meat stuffed with a pork-based fruit and rum stuffing, covered in bacon, a candied orange slice and sprigs of rosemary. Not to be hung on a tree, clearly.
