Sometimes the intimidating nature of Valentine's Day can put a lot of pressure on couples to cook extravagant meals for each other or go out to expensive restaurants.
The hype around the day can leave people wanting to really impress their significant other, although many might not know where to start. The easiest thing to do is head to a supermarket and grab their Valentine's meal deals, especially if you're on a budget.
Lucky for overwhelmed shoppers, M&S have brought back their Valentine's menu, which includes a breakfast dish that will be sure to make your date laugh or blush - the 'Love Sausage'.

M&S announced the return of the popular breakfast option in a tweet which read: "It's back! Yep, that's right – is it even Valentine’s Day without a Love Sausage?
"We'll leave that up to you… Made with 100% British pork and wrapped in smoked bacon, this heart-shaped treat makes for the ultimate Valentine's breakfast."
The heart shaped banger first appeared back in 2019 and instantly achieved viral fame for its cheeky name and shape. The Love Sausage is actually two sausages, wrapped in bacon and shaped into ... you guessed it, a heart.
Last year's launch also saw the release of mini sausages, one of which had a spicy twist. It's no surprise that the infamous meat has returned to shelves in time for Valentine's Day for the fifth year running.
The Love Sausage only costs £6 and is a bestseller, with one fan saying: "You know valentines day is around the corner when the iconic M&S Love Sausage rears its glorious head."
Even Ocado tweeted: "The M&S Love Sausage is the height of romance."
"Personally if it's not an M&S love sausage I'm not interested," said one Twitter user, while a single user added: "Have just written 'buy Love Sausage from M&S' on to-do list to cheer myself up... then, despite my relationship status.
M&S's iconic Love Sausage is in stores from today but unfortunately, the banger cannot be purchased as part of M&S's Valentine's Meal Deal. This gives you a starter, main, side and dessert as well as wine for just £20 total. However, that deal could get you sirloin steak and a three cheese bake for two.
Nothing says romance more than heart shaped meat wrapped in bacon, so if you're hoping to impress this Valentine's Day, what better way than with a Love Sausage.
