This is the real reason to go solo. M&S sells a product called “20 Piggy Popcorn.” They are mini sausages wrapped in bacon. Bite-sized. Addictive.
Fun fact: M&S sells over eight million pigs in blankets every Christmas. If you buy the “For One” pack, you get about six. That’s six glorious, unshared bites of pork perfection. You can eat them as a starter, main course, and dessert. No judgment.
Some M&S stores also do a “Pigs in Blankets Mac and Cheese.” For one. It’s a carbohydrate hug in a dish. It has three kinds of cheese. And bacon. And sausage. It is chaos. It is glorious.

The Dessert Situation
Ah, the pudding. A full Christmas pudding for one is a weird concept. It’s like a tiny, boozy cannonball. M&S nails this with their “Yule Log for One” or a “Sticky Toffee Pudding for One.”
Want to know the best bit? You can eat it for breakfast on Boxing Day. There is nobody to tell you “that’s not appropriate.” You are the king of your castle. The emperor of the microwave.
M&S also sells a “Cheese Selection for One.” It has three mini cheeses. It’s enough to be perfectly satisfied, but not enough to feel sick. Portion control for the win.
