Domino's' Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza has been discontinued

Customers can no longer buy the Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza, which was first unveiled in 2023.
Eaters could get a small for £10, medium for £12 or large for £14 as part of the chain's Price Slice deal.
The menu option combined spiced pulled chicken, juicy tomatoes, crunchy onions, spicy jalapenos and green and red peppers, topped with a spiced mayo drizzle.
However, Domino's has now confirmed it has been dropped from menus.
A spokesperson said: "The incredibly popular Ultimate Chicken Mexicana Pizza has been removed from the national Domino's menu.
"Despite its popularity, we're always looking to make room for more deliciousness.
"In this case, it's to welcome the return of our Double Choc Caramel Cookies as well as another exciting product we'll be revealing next week."
News the pizza has been dropped from menus will no doubt leave shoppers distraught.
One recently asked on X: "Hi, have you discontinued The Ultimate Chicken Mexicana pizza?
"Was my favourite and hope it comes back."

Others who loved the slice will be fuming to hear it's been discontinued as well, with one branding it "unreal" when it first launched.
Another recently posted on X: "That new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana looks banging."
Meanwhile another commented: "The new Ultimate Chicken Mexicana is quite good tbf."
OTHER DISCONTINUED ITEMS
It's common practice for retailers and chains to discontinue products based on customer demand and sales.
Greggs recently exclusively revealed to The Sun the Chargrill Chicken Oval Bite had been dropped from menus.
But, the bakery chain said it was to make way for the new Roast Chicken Salad Roll, which launched in May.
Meanwhile, Tesco also recently confirmed it had axed its own-brand beef sausages.
It came after Tesco confirmed it axed popular southern fried chicken flavour instant noodles.
The pack costed around 50p, but was dropped and replaced with another chicken flavour shoppers could buy.
Tesco also recently cut its own-brand tomato and basil soup from its chilled range.
The Sun exclusively revealed last month Cadbury's axed Fry's Coffee Cream after first launching it in 2023 too.
Why are products axed or recipes changed?
ANALYSIS by chief consumer reporter James Flanders.
Food and drinks makers have been known to tweak their recipes or axe items altogether.
They often say that this is down to the changing tastes of customers.
There are several reasons why this could be done.
For example, government regulation, like the "sugar tax," forces firms to change their recipes.
Some manufacturers might choose to tweak ingredients to cut costs.
They may opt for a cheaper alternative, especially when costs are rising to keep prices stable.
For example, Tango Cherry disappeared from shelves in 2018.
It has recently returned after six years away but as a sugar-free version.
Fanta removed sweetener from its sugar-free alternative earlier this year.
Suntory tweaked the flavour of its flagship Lucozade Original and Orange energy drinks.
While the amount of sugar in every bottle remains unchanged, the supplier swapped out the sweetener aspartame for sucralose.

Cyber attack means this is not just a share price ... it's an M&S sale price

Questor is The Telegraph's stock-picking column, helping you decode the markets and offering insights on where to invest. Questor relishes nothing more than an opportunity to buy high-quality stocks when they face significant temporary challenges. While other investors may prefer to wait for company, industry or economic-related difficulties to pass, this column would rather accept the prospect of heightened uncertainty over the short run in order to buy troubled companies at lower prices. After all, doing so is likely to lead to far higher returns over the long term. Although Marks & Spencer's much-publicised cyber attack may not appear to have prompted a period of significantly weaker share price performance at first glance, the FTSE 100 retailer has substantially underperformed its sector peers of late. Indeed, while its share price has fallen by 10pc since it first reported the attack on April 22, the market valuation of fellow clothing and home retailer Next has increased by 5pc. Shares in Tesco, which competes with Marks and Spencer in the food retail space, have risen by 11pc over the same period. In Questor's view, this underperformance provides an opportunity to buy what remains a high-quality business at a relatively attractive price.

Shoppers spot brand-new Cadbury Dairy Milk flavour on shelves for first time

Read on to find out where you can get your hands on the latest flavour CHOC SHOCK Shoppers spot brand-new Cadbury Dairy Milk flavour on shelves for first time Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHOPPERS have spotted a brand-new flavour of Cadbury's Dairy Milk on store shelves for the first time. The Sun recently revealed that the chocolatier was launching a new Dairy Milk Iced Latte bar this summer; however, the exact date it was set to hit shelves was unknown. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 Cadbury Dairy Milk Iced Latte chocolate bar Credit: Facebook / Newfoodsuk Shoppers have started spotting the new flavour at various retailers this week, excitedly sharing photos of the bar online. One shopper found the new Dairy Milk in B&M, posting a picture of it in the Newfoodsuk Facebook group. Thousands of excited Dairy Milk fans replied to the post tagging their friends, with many saying they "can't wait" to try the new edition. Another user called on brands to release "more coffee flavoured stuff". Another said: "Is this the same as the iced latte twirls they did a while ago? if so they were divine!" However, it's not a hit with all Dairy Milk fans, with one writing: "I love a coffee, I love chocolate, I love cadburys but I HATE coffee flavoured chocolate." As well as B&M, the new snack has also been spotted by shoppers in Sainsbury's. Some local stores, such as Nisa Local in Faversham and Premier in Tayport, have also posted to social media that they're stocking limited amounts of the product. Cadbury said its new special chocolate bar blends its classic Dairy Milk chocolate with a creamy coffee filling and crunchy biscuit pieces. It's available for £2 per bar, although this may vary depending on the retailer. Cadbury launches brand new Twirl chocolate bar – and fans are going wild for it The chocolate brand is also introducing four limited-edition Dairy Milk Summer Edition bars, complete with unique packaging designed for the 53% of Brits who, according to the brand's survey, enjoy their chocolate chilled. This packaging changes its appearance when cooled, thanks to special thermochromic technology, revealing bright, summery designs. Mara Popa, from Cadbury's parent company Mondelez, said: "We know that over half the nation is already chilling their chocolate, and we're ready to truly embrace this debate! "With our limited-edition Cadbury Dairy Milk Summer Edition Bars and innovative colour-changing packaging, we're celebrating the fun and unique ways people enjoy their chocolate. "This special pack design highlights the chilled chocolate trend in a playful way – so whether you are team fridge or team cupboard, the choice is yours!" Cadbury also recently delighted fans by launching a limited-edition Twirl White Dipped bar, which hit shelves on June 2. The brand described the flavour as "unreal, indulgent, smooth, swirly, creamy, melty, new, and mouthwatering". Meanwhile, Cadbury recently reduced the size of its Dairy Milk Little Bars multipacks by a third. New packs of four are being sold for £1.40 - even though packs of six cost the same last month. The change infuriated shoppers, with one writing on the Tesco website: 'Advertised as new, only thing new is you get 4 instead of 6!! For the same price. Disgusting!' A second said: 'Stop reducing how much is in the packet and charging the same price!!!' How to save money on chocolate We all love a bit of chocolate from now and then, but you don't have to break the bank buying your favourite bar. Consumer reporter Sam Walker reveals how to cut costs... Go own brand - if you're not too fussed about flavour and just want to supplant your chocolate cravings, you'll save by going for the supermarket's own brand bars. Shop around - if you've spotted your favourite variety at the supermarket, make sure you check if it's cheaper elsewhere. Websites like let you compare prices on products across all the major chains to see if you're getting the best deal. Look out for yellow stickers - supermarket staff put yellow, and sometimes orange and red, stickers on to products to show they've been reduced. They usually do this if the product is coming to the end of its best-before date or the packaging is slightly damaged. Buy bigger bars - most of the time, but not always, chocolate is cheaper per 100g the larger the bar. So if you've got the appetite, and you were going to buy a hefty amount of chocolate anyway, you might as well go bigger. Do you have a money problem that needs sorting?

Thousands of Thames Water customers are stuck on unfair 30-year-old tariffs

THOUSANDS of Thames Water customers are stuck on unfair 30-year-old tariffs, The Sun can reveal. Many without water meters have seen bills soar because they are calculated using their property's rateable value — set way back in the 1990s. 1 One Sun reader told us his monthly payment was up by a huge 671 per cent, from £21 to £162. Thames, which is trying to negotiate a multi-billion pound rescue deal, had said bills would rise by 31 per cent from April. But many are up by more than 40 per cent. Customers in homes unsuited to water meters — such as many flats — say they have been hit with higher hikes over the years. Their bills are calculated by their historic rateable value, which can depend on size and location — so they will often vary for homes in the same street. The Sun has been told that huge numbers of properties are unsuitable for water meters — including about 70 per cent in London. It means many people are struggling on unfair tariffs — and we have delivered a dossier of cases to Thames asking it to investigate. Consumer expert Martyn James said affordability was 'deeply concerning'. Industry regulator Ofwat said some customers may see their payments increase by more than average. Thames said: 'We offer comprehensive support for customers struggling to pay their bill.' TESCO SALES UP TESCO has revealed stronger sales over the latest quarter despite an 'intensely competitive' grocery market. The UK's largest supermarket chain said it has increased its market share further after investing more in pricing to lure customers. Group sales grew by 4.6 per cent to £16.4billion for the 13 weeks to May 24. Food sales rose by 5.9 per cent while non-food sales, excluding toys, rose by 6.2 per cent. £500 YOB FINES DISRUPTIVE Ryanair passengers who are removed from planes will be fined £500. The carrier said this will be the 'minimum' penalty and it will continue to pursue offenders for civil damages. It hopes the policy will 'act as a deterrent to eliminate this unacceptable behaviour'. The airline is suing one passenger for £12,600 after a Dublin-Lanzarote flight had to divert to Porto last year. EX-WILKO STAFF COMPO ABOUT 10,000 former Wilko workers will share a £2million payout following a legal case, it was announced yesterday. The GMB union said an employment tribunal judgment ruled that the retailer had failed to properly consult with workers before going bust in 2023. It means about 9,000 who worked in a store with 20 or more people will get four days' pay. And roughly 1,100 who worked in a distribution centre or support centre role will receive 13 days' pay. GMB rep David Bartlett said it was 'the very least Wilko workers deserve'.
