ALDI has sparked a food price fight with the launch of the cheapest three-course Valentine’s Day meal for £9.66.

But yesterday frozen giant Iceland waded in with a package that includes booze for £10.

The deal from its Gino D’Acampo rang e includes clams with garlic and white wine, puds such as tiramisu and wine.

Asda and Morrisons have £15 deals, while Tesco and Marks & Spencer cost £20, with the latter calling its menu “a showstoppe­r”.

KELLOGG’S has said it has no plans to cut the sugar in its cereals – as they are so popular with young adults.

Figures in The Grocer show sales of Frosties to 20 to 28year-olds were up 11% year on year and Crunchy Nut up 8%.

A spokesman said there is a “whopping 37g of sugar per 100g” of Frosties.

But he added the figures showed, “there is still a place at the breakfast table for sugary cereals”.

Dig in to those Heinz truffles

ROSES are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, add sauce and woohoo...

You can treat the love of your life to a ValentHein­z Day box of chocolates with a tomato ketchup filling.

Heinz have teamed up with Fortnum & Mason to create the milk, white and dark shelled truffles with a blonde chocolate ganache and a Heinz Tomato Ketchup centre.

They come in a heartshape­d box and will be on sale from tomorrow at £19.95, in plenty of time for February 14.

LOVE

Heinz described the soft centres as having a “tangy tomato flavour “which “bursts through the silky creamy rich ganache with a sweet finish”.

Its relationsh­ip with the posh store stretches back to 1886, when Fortnum & Mason first stocked Heinz products.

Alexandra Bayet, from Heinz, said: “Ketchup and chocolate are two of the nation’s most loved foods.

“It was only right that on the internatio­nal day of love we combine these ingredient­s in mouth-watering truffles.”

Sophie Young, of Fortnum & Mason, added: “They have developed something truly and unexpected­ly delicious.”
