Marks and Spencer Defends £195 Beef Wellington Amid Mixed Reactions
Marks and Spencer has defended its premium M&S Collection Tom Kerridge Beef Wellington, priced at £195. The product serves six people, weighs over 2kg, and features hand-butchered British beef fillet matured for 17 days, portobello mushroom duxelles, chicken breast mousse, and black truffle.
M&S says the Beef Wellington is selling very well with only a few units left on their Christmas Food To Order page. A spokesperson emphasized that the product is a big hit with customers.
Online reactions to the £195 price tag have been mixed, with some critics considering it overspending. There have also been mentions linking the discussion to a cyber-attack recovery narrative.
For comparison, other premium Beef Wellington offerings include Fortnum & Mason's Classic Beef Wellington priced at £120 for six to eight servings, Charlie Bigham's £30 ready meal Beef Wellington, and the Gordon Ramsay Beef Wellington Experience costing £95 per person.
Sky News contacted Tom Kerridge for comment regarding the product and pricing.
