    Asda have better radiation to nuke them with so they last longer

    (I've had a few manky onions this year as well - from Tesco and Sainsbury's)

      it's normally ok

      someone ^^^ said there was an announcement about weather damaged crops. but that would apply to asda as well. wouldn't it ?


      Yeah, it's not bad - just huge!! Takes me ages to get round it.

      I would have thought a tulipty onion crop would affect all supermarkets. Bizarre.

        But where's your Lidl and Aldi?

        We have to know.
        There is an Aldi not far from me I like it for cheese & meat (like Serrano & Parma ham) and other random tulip

        No idea where the nearest Lidl is though.

          I must say the veg has been OK recently in my local Sainsburys. But there have been times when the carrots have been distinctly past their best.

          Maybe it's all this rain we've had over the last several months

          I blame global warming.

            Yes, I like Sansbury's. They've got a great bakery, with lots of nice made-in-store produce.

            Their fruit and veg is always good too.

                I don't buy normal onions anyway. I prefer shallots, because they're tastier. Never had any trouble with those.
