This may explain why "everything is so expensive in Mallorca". For example, Heinz baked beans - what are they, about 89c at Eroski? At the "British shop" they're what, €2.95? But the label is in English, so I suppose the cooking instructions are easier to understand for many Brits. Well worth the price. And that good British quality. Bisto gravy used to be abundant, but mysteriously it disappeared from supermarket shelves on Feb 1 2020. Funny that. Yorkshire tea - yes, well you have to go to Carrefour or Mercadona (and they aren't exactly "British" shops). But you can always get it at the "British shop" for 3x the price. And they speak English there. Or another solution is to simply move back to the sunlit uplands. Then you can have your beans and eat them too.
SaraWith whom are you going to take this further? The Department for Archaic and Mildly Smutty Double Entendres? Please keep us updated as it would be far more entertaining than most of the MDB articles being trotted-out recently.
I suppose you think that headline is amusing. It isn’t. It’s a disgrace. It just shows the level of the MDB nowadays. As you are publishing in Spain I’m going to take this further.
