Every little helps (them)
I appreciate times can be hard, but don't you think it's better to eat less quantity and more quality stuff? Tesco is the pits when it comes to quality food, their 'value' crap is marginally fit to eat from their mass-produced chickens to sausages with no meat in and biscuits made with additives.
I'd rather spend a bit more elsewhere and know that it's 'fit for purpose'.Comment

Sugar, flour and a load of flavourings and preservatives, from Waitrose/M&S through to Tesco Value. Check the ingredients next time you buy some "better quality" junk food.Comment

FFS,
How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

I hate to think what 'doggy stuff' you could put in a custard cream.

Sounds like they are right up there with the Morrison's value brand curry sauce. 5p per jar

Nobody's supposed to buy the Value brand in Tesco. It's a marketing stunt so people don't feel like they are buying bottom of the range when they buy the normal stuff.Guy Fawkes - "The last man to enter Parliament with honourable intentions."Comment
