Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed her ultimate Irish favourites – during an exclusive chat with SuperValu.
The Sex and the City actress and her husband Matthew Broderick own a holiday home in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, which has been in Matthew’s family for decades.
In celebration of SuperValu‘s offer on the Invivo X, Sarah Jessica Parker wine range – available now in stores nationwide, the mom-of-three joined the favourite Irish supermarket chain for an Instagram Live on Wednesday, November 15.
Speaking to SuperValu about her favourite Irish snacks to pair with her Invivo X, Sarah Jessica Parker range, the actress said: “I would say [Charleville] cheese. We eat a lot of it. There’s also a salami that we buy at SuperValu [Horgan’s], it’s German. It’s gorgeous. We eat a lot of that, also brown bread.”
“My husband when he’s in Ireland, he makes – everybody in our parish is famous for their basic vegetable soup that you purée, it’s a very Irish thing to do.”
“That’s always in our house, so that’s a great snack for all of us. We think of it as Irish because it’s sort of like an Irish kitchen, typically women would just be throwing things in a pot and just puréeing.”
“We love crisps, I will say. We love crisps a lot. So, we eat those.”

When asked whether Irish crisps have more flavour than American crisps, Sarah Jessica enthusiastically responded: “Oh gosh, there’s no comparison. Everybody knows it. I’m not offending anybody, it’s just a fact!”
SJP, best known as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City and its reboot And Just Like That, is a huge fan of SuperValu and has previously given them shout outs for some of her favourite tasty foods on social media.
The Hollywood star regularly shops at SuperValu when she stays at her holiday home in Donegal, which she owns with her actor husband Matthew Broderick.
SuperValu also holds a special place in her heart as they exclusively stock her Invivo X, SJP Sauvignon Blanc and Rosé wines, which she created with winemakers Tim Lightbourne and Rob Cameron from New Zealand-based Invivo wines. SJP is hands on, and tastes and blends every new vintage with Tim and Rob.
The New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc boasts tropical flavours, with a smooth and long finish.
The delicate oak influence underpins the fruit on the nose and in the palate giving an immediate softness and accessibility, making it a versatile wine that’s great with food or on its own.
This seriously drinkable Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect accompaniment to any fish dish, from grilled prawns, baked or smoked salmon or with some fresh oysters.
The Invivo X, SJP Rosé, crafted in partnership with a family-owned vineyard from Provence in the South of France, is the perfect beverage for a girls night in.
Full-bodied with great complexity and elegance, the aroma invokes clear rose petals and bright summer berry characters which make this wine exceptionally fresh.
A gorgeous shade of blush pink, this rosé delivers a terrific fruit intensity, finishing with a delightfully long and refreshing taste.
