Aldi/Lidl Jumbo Sausage Rolls

I bought these to cook as part of a dinner, but noticed it said they could be enjoyed hot or cold, so was thinking I could take them as lunch as well which would make a change from sandwiches. Just wondering, do they have to be cooked first and then refrigerated, or can they be eaten straight out of the pack?

They are already cooked, so can be eaten straight from the packet. I find they are much nicer heated up even a little bit.

You could try heating them in the oven,and wrapping them in tin foil, in some sort of insulating lunch box. They would probably only
be lukewarm by lunchtime, but that would be better than cold.

Not to sound like a cooking bore but really make your own! they'll be far nicer than anything your can buy.

A pack of puff pastry
sausages
black pudding
some finely chopped tomato (moistness)
herbs/mustard

That sound's like you've invented a food poisoning incubator:eek:

Cooking something in the morning then eating it a few hours later isn't going to give you food poisoning (unless the food was already gone bad or whatever)

But deliberately keeping food warm for any period is not good idea. I'd have no issue with cooking food and letting it cool for a few hours and eating it. My problem is with the idea of keeping hot food in an insulated container for any prolonged period ie it is neither cool nor hot - just what you don't want.

They can be eaten straight out of the package, they don't need to be cooked first.

No you don't need to cook them.
