  Asda £5 CHEESE Easter egg

  Includes blue cheese, crackers and caramelised onion chutney

  If you prefer cheese over chocolate, Asda* is offering a £5 cheese Easter egg, or for those who enjoy portmanteaus – a 'Cheester' egg – in stores only (find your nearest*).

  As egg-spected, this has been getting a lot of press and social media coverage so we've had a sniff around to see what we can find out about it, and whether it's good value or a deal that stinks.

  What do you get?

  Well, you don't get a whole egg – it's 172g Blacksticks blue cheese in a half egg-shape. Also in the packet are five mini oatcake crackers and a sachet of caramelised onion chutney.

  

  How good value is it?

  At £5, we think it's a bit overpriced, though we suspect if you're going to go for this, then it's probably because you're egg-cited by the quirkiness of it, and less concerned about its value.

  However, you can pick up 150g regular pack of Blacksticks blue cheese for £2 in Asda – that's £13.33 per kg. If the cheese Easter egg was the same value per kg then it would cost about £2.50ish, but at £5 it's £29.07 per kg.

  Of course, you have to factor in the mini crackers, chutney, extra packaging and the novelty factor.

  The cheese egg launched in stores on Fri 16 Mar and is likely to be popular. Asda couldn't tell us how many stores it's still available in, so it may be worth contacting your local store before making a special trip.
