Aussies are divided over a $10 Heinz spaghetti jaffle sold at an upmarket pub, with some arguing they could make it at home for 49c.
The jaffles are being sold at Lil Sis, a fancy wine bar located at the The Abercrombie hotel in inner-Sydney.
The bar serves up three jaffle flavours; triple cheese, pastrami and Heinz tinned spaghetti and says they are the ‘ultimate comfort food’.
‘Feels like a hug, tastes like home. We think jaffles are the ultimate comfort food, especially after a few wines.’
