We have had turkey at Easter for every year of my life, so a huge tradition, I will be cooking for our bubble, and we like to have turkey sandwiches at tea time and at least a couple of left over meals, it is a treat and very economical. Just seems so bizarre there isn't a single one available, we had no problems last year! ?

I have never had turkey for Easter only lamb. Maybe they all got bought at at Christmas and there are none left over. Farmers, didn’t plan for a demand at Easter as they are not the typical meal and family gatherings are being frowned upon.

I know most people have roast lamb for Easter Sunday lunch, and that is probably more traditional, but we had always had turkey. I have been onto every supermarket website and there isn't a whole roast turkey to be had anywhere! The only ones I could find were fresh ones from speciality butchers costing an incredible amount per kilo.

Has anyone seen one in their local supermarket recently?
