Cheese and reality TV: glad I'm not the only single one.
Ahh, Love Island, what’s not to love? Gigantic men humping women under the sheets while their mums watch at home, catchphrases generated by endless Essex people vat-grown to be on reality TV, and now promotional food tie-ins absolutely dripping in cheese. Yep, Absurd Bird are as excited by the return of every single person in the country’s guilty pleasure as you are, so are launching a delicious, limited edition chicken fondue.
Named You Total Melt, because of course it is, the dish comes packed with enough chicken and cheese that it'll muffle all the guilt that you don’t look like the gorgeous people on the screen. We’re talking giant BBQ chicken wings, chicken sliders, and buffalo tenders for the bird side, and then an absurd amount of cheese with fondue, Primula cheese, deep-fried Babybels – much like the men on the show – and Wotsit dust. Don’t be a mug: if that doesn’t sound like your kind of thing, then you probably are a melt.
You can get You Total Melt chicken fondue at Absurd Bird Spitalfields and Soho.
