Marks & Spencer has made an exciting announcement for sweet treat lovers. Reversy Percy is making an "iconic" return today, on July 24, 2024.
In a brand new announcement, the British retailer told customers: "We hope you are sitting down, as for the first time in 10 years - yep, a whole decade - M&S Food is bringing back one of the most sought-after OG sweet treats… back by popular demand, and quite literally, backwards… Reversy Percy is returning!
"Yes, it’s true, you asked and we listened! Reversy Percy is coming to a store near you and we couldn’t be more PIG-cited.
"We’re talking the same iconic flavours as the OG (using only real fruit juice and no artificial colours or flavourings) but more jelly than foam."

Excitingly, the sweet treat is suitable for vegans. The supermarket asked: "The question is… how will you eat yours?" A packet of Reversy Percy Pig (150g) will set Britons back £1.90.
M&S also made an exciting announcement regarding its beloved Colin the Caterpillar. The retailer said: "Colin is joining the sweetest summer party too and is ready to celebrate!
"Just in time for his birthday, Colin Party Time is full of party-themed sweets including party hats, balloons, his face (of course) and more, in six different fabulously fruity flavours – there ain’t no party like a Colin the Caterpillar party!"
Percy Pig and Colin the Caterpillar fans can also get excited for the return of two fan favourites.
M&S said: "And there’s more (we meant it when we said the sweetest summer is here).
"From one magical season to another, our Christmas Colin’s Greatest Bits and Percy Pig ‘n’ Mix wanted a slice of the summer action… and this time they are here to stay… all year round - hurray."
The retailer concluded: "Summer is finally here and it’s about to get sensationally sweeter."
But M&S isn't the only supermarket bringing out new products, as "yummy" new sweet treats have been found at Asda, Tesco and B&M.
Speaking about one of the new products, a customer said: "I'll not be walking, I'll be running."

Another favourite among Britons, McDonald's, has dropped a new limited-edition menu and Britons are running to their local restaurant.
To celebrate 50 years in the UK, McDonald's new items came out just days ago on July 17.
One McDonald's customer said: "I know what I’m getting for dinner tonight." Another took one look at the new menu and decided they "need it ASAP".
