    Coffee is a great deal. I will pass on the ham though as plenty in freezer.

    Cheers.

    I have never tried the ham, I may give it a try.

    The coffee may be ok for the iced coffee below, I may give that a try too at that price.

    Is the Melangerie better than the Gold Arabica filter coffee?
    Gold is quite harsh until a taste is acquired and not a personal favourite.

    A Gold winner at 2011 Food & Drink Awards if that means anything.
    I'd assume its the same stuff in the coffee bags.

    Does the coffee come in beans or ground? Anyone know if it's any good??

    We love Lidl's Black Forest ham so will be stocking up.

    I've never tried freezing it before though - it never occured to me to do so, which is stupid really considering I buy gammon joints which I then cook and slice up and freeze in batches. Those of you who freeze this ham - do you just freeze it in the packet it comes in, or do you put it in plastic freezer friendly tubs?

    I have had this ham unopened in the fridge for 6 months past its use by date and it has been fine to eat ! It is very well cured !

    This is gonna sound like a STUPID question I know, but the ham, its like Parma Ham right? With it being called black forest I wondered weather it had blood in (because it sounds like black pudding) :rotfl: I know im stupid, but I just want to make sure.

    Yes its the same but i think the word Parma is protected now because it has to made in that region like many other things but strangely not Yorkshire puddings :D
