TEAM GB’S Delicious Orie wants to follow in the Olympic footsteps of gym buddy Anthony Joshua.

European and Commonwealth Games superheavyweight gold medalist Orie is Britain’s biggest boxer to top the Paris podium.

And Orie, whose Midlands accent belies the fact he was actually born in Moscow, admitted training alongside AJ at Team GB’s headquarters in Sheffield has made him even more determined to come back with gold.

Orie said: “I only started taking boxing seriously after seeing AJ in London 2012.

“Then it really appealed to me. That is my first and greatest Olympic memory – until I do it!

“When I started, the guy everyone looked up to was Anthony Joshua.

“From then on it was in my head that I had to win a medal because this is what GB Boxing has done time and time again and proven time and time again.

“So it’s only right that I go out there and do that. To listen to the coaches and go out there and perform and just have complete belief and confidence in them and myself.

AJ was crowned king of the super heavyweights in London in 2012 before turning pro and becoming a two-time world champion.

The Watford star, 34, now has a third world crown in his sights after his demolition of former MMA fighter Francis Ngannou in two rounds in Saudi Arabia a fortnight ago.

Orie turns 27 on May 31, two months before the Games start in Paris.

He added: “I’ve spoken to AJ a few times about what it’s like to step into that Olympic arena.

“It’s great because you can have these kinds of conversations with him outside the ring.

“I’m so lucky to be able to talk to him about these things. He gave me advice, both boxing advice and stuff for outside the ring.

“I just couldn’t have a better role model to look up to.”

Orie’s mother is Russian, his father Nigerian and he has a Ukrainian grandmother and cousins.

He came to England at the age of seven, settled in Wolverhampton, has a degree in economics from Aston University in Birmingham and reads books on finance in his spare time.

The ongoing situation in Ukraine remains “devastating and terrible” for Orie, but his heart is now very red, white and blue.

He added: “If I can win that gold medal for Team GB it will mean absolutely everything.

“It will be a way for me to say ‘thank you’ to the nation for giving me all the opportunities I have had so far.

“I just collect everything and make the most of it.

“My job in Paris will be to inspire the next generation, just as I was inspired as a young adult.

“My boxing has evolved 100 percent over the last few years since I entered the Sheffield GB boxing camp.

“Every tournament I participate in, I feel inside that I am getting better and better.

“Not just physically and in terms of strength, because that’s just natural.

“But in being able to deal with pressure and expectations, being able to deal with the level of opposition and just going out there and winning.

“In terms of progression it is unparalleled. I feel happy these last few years.

“So this is the plan: the Olympics in Paris and then turn professional. And then heavyweight world champion in 2029.

“Early thirties, world champion, I will be happy with that.”

B&M shoppers are thrilled to see a “delicious” Malteser flavor back on shelves.

The discount retailer has restocked Maltesers Gold and fans can’t get enough of it.

1

Maltesers Gold are filled with the classic malt flavor and covered with white chocolate.

The flavor launched in Australia in January last year and shoppers were desperate to reach British shores.

Astute shoppers first spotted the packs in B&M stores in June last year, but it is not clear when they disappeared from the shelves.

Chocolate lovers have taken to social media to share their excitement about the return of the Maltesers.

One shopper wrote on Facebook: “Looking yummy.”

Another user tagged his friend and said: “Omg have you ever tried any of the gold things – they are amazing.”

A third exclaimed: “Omg I have to try this.”

And a fourth described them as “delicious”.

The Sun has asked B&M how much the 130g Maltesers Gold bags cost, and we will update this story as soon as we hear back.

When The Sun checked we couldn’t find any other retailers selling the treats.

You can find your nearest B&M store using the locator on the website.

It always pays to compare prices to ensure you get the best deal.

Please note that stock may vary from store to store, so it may even be worth calling your local B&M to see if they are selling the new Maltesers flavour.

And to keep an eye on other stores to see if they sell them.

At the time of writing we couldn’t see Malstesers Gold in stock online, but B&M were selling other flavors and sizes.

To the delight of shoppers, dozens of food items are making a comeback – from sweet treats to savory snacks.

B&M is known for offering snacks and sweets that haven’t been before

If you look online there are several independent online retailers doing this, and sometimes it’s worth checking out Amazon too.

Aldi made biscuit lovers’ dreams come true when it revealed it would be bringing back the much-loved Elkes Sports Shortcake biscuits.

While Nestle made KitKat fans very happy when the Hazelnut KitKat Chunky was back on the shelves after three years.

The Sun has put together a guide to the ‘nostalgic’ foods making a comeback.

In the meantime, here’s the full list of discontinued food products that are slowly disappearing from supermarket shelves.

SHOPPERS are rushing to B&M for a brand new flavor of popcorn that has just hit shelves.

The bargain store is currently selling Chupa Chups’ iconic signature popcorn – for just £1.

One savvy shopper took to a coupons and bargains page on social media to share the news and low price, much to the delight of Chupa Chups fans.

One Facebook user quickly exclaimed, “It’s delicious.”

In late 2023, Chupa Chups launched its new lollipop flavored popcorn in Carrefour supermarkets in France and Spain.

Their iconic sweet signature lollipop flavors – including apple, strawberry and cola – have been combined with premium air-popped popcorn to bring you these colorful treats.

A spokesperson for United Food and Beverage Group said: “During big birthday celebrations or intimate TV evenings for all the family.

“We are there together with iconic flavor Chupa Chups popcorn to celebrate true joy.

“We are excited about this great collaboration between partners who share the same values; bringing tasteful and joyful moments to families and friends around the world.”

While the Global Confectionery Group manager added: “We are very excited about the prospect of CRNCH Popcorn Concepts.

“We offer fans of our brand many moments of joy and pleasure with every crunch of this popcorn so expertly glazed in long-favorite Chupa Chups flavors.”

Since its launch in Europe, the lollipop-flavored popcorn has taken consumers by storm – finally making its debut in Britain.

The retailer is known for its value purchases and many social media users have started sharing their offers online.

Earlier this year a man bagged a huge amount of food for just £1.20.

Alongside the photo of the bargain purchases, Anthony French wrote: “Another good morning delivery of B&M items worth 10p. Total £1.20!”

Anthony managed to get his hands on two loaves of Warburtons fruit bread, which were reduced from £1.80 to just 10p each.

He also received two packs of Walls pork and pickle pies, which were reduced from £1.40 to just 10p a pack, two packs of plain chicken breast slices and a pack of chicken tikka breast slices, all costing 10p each from £ 1.25.

Anthony also got some super sweet treats – as he bought a tiramisu dessert, which was reduced from £2.60 to just 10p, and four packets of salted caramel Gu cheesecakes, which once cost £2.50 per packet but now only costs 10 cents. each.

What should have cost Anthony £22.75 actually set him back just £1.20, saving him a whopping £21.55.

Chocolate fans are also sprinting to their nearest B&M to get their hands on a famous soon-to-be-discontinued chocolate bar.

As other bargain hunters rushed to get their hands on Bluetooth wireless headphones, they were reduced to just 10p.

There is little better than a bacon steak.

We revealed this week that the super sarnie has been named Britain’s most loved comfort food in a survey.

But where is the best place to buy your slices?

Hayley Minn put the supermarket’s own brand bacon to the test and rated it out of five for taste, appearance and value for money. . .

Waitrose 8 dry-cured smoked bacon strips, 250 g

£4 (2 for £7) Price of slices: 50p or 44p

9

THIS was the most expensive cut I tried, so I had big expectations.

It had a good color, browned well and was nicely salted and not too chewy.

So all good, but there were other, much cheaper options that were even more fun.

Score: 4/5

Morrisons smoked bacon strips, 10 pack, 300g

£2.25 (2 for £4) Slice price: 23p or 20p

9

GOOD appearance, nice brown and a good amount of fat on the side, which is welcome.

Just the right saltiness, well balanced with the smokiness of the meat. One of my favorites.

Score: 5/5

Asda Butcher’s Selection smoked bacon strips, 16 pack, 500g

£3, price of slices: 19p

9

SIXTEEN slices is great value for money, but they were much greasier than the rest.

Chunks of fat came off during cooking, but there was still quite a bit of fat in it.

The bacon tasted good, but a little too salty.

Score: 3/5

Sainsbury’s smoked bacon rashers, 10 pack, 300g

£2.25, price of slices: 23p

9

REALLY a sight to behold when I took it out of the pan, perfectly browned, with not too much fat.

The taste was great too.

The smokiness was strong and there wasn’t too much salt.

Score: 5/5

Tesco British 10 smoked bacon strips, 300 g

£2.70 (£2.40 Clubcard) Ticket price: 27p or 24p

9

THE FIRST thing I noticed was how much fat there was compared to other purchases.

The taste was decent Niceand not as salty as some of its rivals, but there wasn’t enough meatiness for my taste.

Score: 3/5

Oakhurst smoked bacon rashers, 10 pieces, 300 g Aldi

£2.15, price of slices: 22p

9

It seemed like a good price for ten slices, but they shriveled a lot when fried and ended up being much smaller than most.

Too salty too. But not too much fat and a pretty good, meaty flavor.

Score: 2/5

Birch wood smoked bacon, 8 pieces, 300g, Lidl

£1.89, price of slices: 24p

9

At 7 p.m. individually this seemed great value for your money. So I hoped it tasted as good as the price.

But unfortunately it was way too salty, which overpowered everything else. I couldn’t detect much meat.

Score: 2/5

Co-op smoked back bacon, 280 g, minimum 8 slices

£2, price for slices: 25p

9

RASHERS were nice and big, which put a smile on my face.

The flavor was great too, not too salty and packed with meatiness.

But this bacon had a little too much fat compared to the others.

Score: 4/5

SHOPPERS have flocked to their nearest Home Bargains store for the new Aero and Milky Bar flavors hitting store shelves.

New chocolate is always a big hit with customers, but this latest release has confectionery fans in an uproar.

1

Home Bargains made the announcement on social media Tuesday, posting photos of the brand new products.

It seems that both Aero and Milkyway have collaborated to produce favorite ice cream flavors.

Shoppers can now purchase Raspberry Ripple Ice Cream as their Milky Way flavor, and Neapolitan Ice Cream as their Aero flavor.

Uploading the image to Facebook, Home Bargains said: “Some of your most loved ice cream flavors have made their way into AERO & MILKYBAR! Try these delicious new flavor combinations! Who will you share with?”

No price has been announced for the bags of sweet treats, but they are set to be a big hit with shoppers nonetheless.

And that was reflected in the comments section of the post, with Facebook users getting excited about the exciting news.

“Share? Bag, everyone thinks,” said one.

“I want the Milkybar ones, I gotta find them,” said another.

One person who has tried them before even confirmed that “they really taste like they say.”

The news comes after nostalgic Home Bargains shoppers panicked after spotting ‘the best’ chocolate bar on the shelves.

The discount chain is known for selling everything from energy-saving gadgets to quirky items, but one sweet snack in particular has caught the attention of many in recent weeks.

And chocolate lovers obsessed with Terry’s chocolate orange are in for a treat after a much-loved favorite treat returned to shelves.

Terry’s Chocolate Orange Easter Edition with Crushed Mini Eggs returns with a special Easter twist and recently hit stores.

ALDI shoppers are excited about the return of a “delicious” hot cross bun flavor.

The discount supermarket has just relaunched the banoffee flavor of the traditional Easter treat.

1

One savvy shopper who managed to get his hands on a pack of the popular flavor posted to the official Food Finds UK Facebook group.

The message read: “NEW banoffee hot cross buns spotted in ALDI,” alongside a photo of the sweet treat.

Other foodies rushed to comment, with a few people noting that the flavor was a firm favorite last year.

One person said: “These taste amazing.”

I had these last year, they were delicious!

Another commented: “I ate these last year, they were delicious.”

While a third said: “OMG I have to try these.”

The post racked up nearly 300 comments and likes from hot cross bun fans excited about the return of the banoffee flavor.

According to the retailer’s website, a pack of four costs £1.25.

However, if you want to get your hands on them, you’ll have to head to your local store.

Although the item is listed online, it only shows as ‘coming soon’ and is not available for purchase.

You can see where your nearest Aldi is via the store locator on the website.

As always, we recommend shopping around to make sure you get the best deal.

You can use price comparison sites such as Google Shopping and Trolley.co.uk to compare the prices of items from different retailers.

In addition to getting a better deal, you may also discover a flavor you prefer over banoffee, as many retailers now offer different versions of the traditional hot cross bun.

We’ve looked around to see what alternative flavors other supermarkets are offering to tempt your taste buds.

Morrisons has a pack of four hot cross buns with lemon drizzle as part of its “The Best” range for £1.25 per pack.

This flavor also seems to be a hit with shoppers, as it has received a four-star customer rating on the supermarket’s website.

One fan stated: “These actually taste like lemon!!”

Another agreed, saying: “Taste and smell of lemon which really elevates it from a regular hot cross bun.”

Iceland is also a hit with its four-pack of chocolate and salted caramel flavored hot cross buns.

One customer said the sandwiches are “perfect for non-fruit lovers” and “beautiful with real butter”.

Another fan said: “These are perfect with some jam on top!”

Marks and Spencer recently launched a new flavor that has also appealed to those with a sweet tooth.

One person even went so far as to say that the new flavor is “the only hot cross bun I eat.”

In the meantime, if you’re looking to stock up your Easter cupboard, we can reveal the tastiest hot cross buns and Easter treats in our taste test – and that’s good news for bargain hunters.

And as supermarkets start to compete to offer the best deal, we can reveal which supermarket has recently slashed the price of its large Easter eggs – but you’ll need to be quick as the offer won’t last long.
