Winner, winner, turkey dinner! As the festive season fast approaches, Iceland is back with its hugely popular ‘Turkey Insurance’ which guarantees shoppers their Christmas dinner staple.

It comes following new research from the value supermarket that found over half the nation (57%) see turkey as essential for their Christmas dinner. However, more than a third (35%) of Brits are more concerned about being able to get hold of one this Christmas compared to last year, and over half the nation (67%) worry about affording one*.

To put turkey back on the nation’s Christmas dinner plate and encourage Brits to host their perfect roast, shoppers can secure their festive bird ahead of the big day. And it’s all thanks to the return of Iceland’s ‘Turkey Insurance’ initiative which guarantees shoppers a turkey for delivery between Saturday 9^th and Saturday 16^th December.

Plus, Iceland has launched yet another Christmas deal to help shoppers manage costs – offering a turkey and any three sides for just £30 to serve 8-10 people – including fan favourites like the frozen Iceland Luxury Perfect Turkey Crown (2.2kg) and Ridiculously Crispy Roast Potatoes.

Following news frozen turkeys are rising in prices, Iceland’s frozen bundle is aimed at providing shoppers a value Christmas centrepiece with sides this Christmas. But alarmingly 39% of Brits believe a fresh turkey is better quality compared to one that’s frozen.

As 95% of its turkey range is frozen this year, Iceland is set on dispelling myths about the nation’s Christmas dinner essential to ensure shoppers receive the best value and quality for the day. According to recent research, a significant 55% of consumers believe that fresh turkeys are inherently fresher, while 35% also express concerns that natural flavours are lost when turkeys are thawed.

However, Iceland wants to set the record straight. Contrary to popular belief, fresh turkeys don’t necessarily equate to enhanced freshness. In fact, fresh turkeys can be stored for up to 14 days or longer before hitting the supermarket shelves. Frozen turkeys, however, remain preserved from the outset, ensuring juiciness and flavours are locked in and deliver a truly delicious experience.
