Prep the stuffing. Don’t overcook the pudding. Remember which relatives can’t be in the same room together.
It’s hard to fully enjoy Christmas when there’s so much organisation involved. Lucky for you, there’s an instant fix.
Tech retailer GAME has just released its vegan ‘Christmas Tinner’, a three-course festive meal packed right into a can. And they are not messing around.
GAME first released Christmas Tinner in 2013 for ‘hardcore gamers that don’t want to leave their gaming chair on Christmas day.’
This meaty version, which is still available, includes turkey, potatoes, broccoli, bread sauce, sprouts, stuffing and mince pies.
But this year, they are offering something for vegans and vegetarians too.
Each cylindrical bad boy contains a full Christmas dinner for just £2. That’s 12 layers of plant-based takes on classic festive dishes.
‘Almost half of British gamers plan to spend the majority of Christmas Day testing out new games and consoles,’ a GAME spokesperson said.
‘It’s the ultimate innovation for gamers across the nation who can’t tear themselves away from their new consoles and games on Christmas Day – the first all-in-one festive feast in a tin .’
They’re onto something.
The vegan Christmas Tinner includes quite the smorgasbord. Ready for it?
There’s vegan gravy, mushroom wellington, pigs in aubergine blankets, tofu and stuffing, as well as your go-to winter veggies including squash, sprouts, and parsnips.
Each of those layers sound pretty good, it’s just the aspect of it being crammed into a cylinder that might (definitely) alter the tastes and textures.
There’s also a dessert layer, including vegan custard and choccy cake. Which raises the obvious question, are festive feasters meant to meticulously section off the dessert portion, or simply enjoy a bit of sweetness with every savoury bite?
Either option is certainly feasible, but we’re going to say that option two is for anarchists.
Another new Christmas Tinner release is the vegetarian option, featuring another 12 layers of nut roast, cauliflower cheese, gingerbread pancakes, toblerone, potatoes and because it’s apparently treason to provide a veggie meal without it, there’s also halloumi in there.
