An angry shopper has divided social media after blasting M&S for flogging a pastry called Plain Jane.
Jane Hudson took offence when she spotted the retailer had called their vanilla flavoured yumnuts 'Plain Jane' after she bought a pack of three from their Epping store in Essex.
Jane took to social media to complain about the sweet snack, claiming "name calling is not OK".

Carole Barlow wrote, "Why do people get offended about everything these days? You aren't a Plain Jane, I'm not a Christmas carol.
"Life's too short to be always offended, they just aren't very inventive."
Debbie Eibbed commented, "Try being Debbie.... did I do Dallas or am I a downer?"

Karen Willis commented, "It's a bit like being a Karen - I have found if you laugh together with those people calling these names they laugh and love you."
Jane was blissfully unaware of the controversially-named yumnuts until she got home but still thought they were delicious.

Jane said: "I bought them at M&S not realising [the name] and went home.
"My 23-year-old thought it was hilarious that they were called Plain Janes, so jokingly I said 'I think that's disgusting'.
"They're a plain vanilla doughnut, I don't know why they need to name it that person's name.
"I'm not moaning, they were very tasty, I just think M&S should know better.

"My kids think I'm totally bonkers. My son now walks around calling me a doughnut.
"My daughter says I've got too much time on my hands and that's why I'm moaning about it."
M&S were contacted for comment.
