andsome Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Tesco deserve all the stick they get as a result of this little episode. I have NEVER trusted them for meat, chickens eggs etc. I have always had the feeling that they go for absolute rock bottom prices, and bugger the quality.

Belatucadrus Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I don't blame Tesco for this, they're a retailer and purchased a product from a supposedly reputable manufacturer who sourced what they had every right to expect was beef from a European supplier. This isn’t somebody making an error, this is criminal misrepresentation and fraudulent. Somebody was trying to make a quick euro and didn’t much care how they did it, they now have a very pissed off selection of large retailers very very pissed off at them, I suspect they’re going to be publicly crucified.

AlanHo Posted January 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2013 What amuses me is that the flak is all being directed at Tesco. But there are other supermarkets also involved including I believe Lidl, Aldi, and Iceland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 The point is that Tesco, Lidl and Aldi all seem to go for rock bottom priced goods. I prefer to buy my food from Sainsbury's and occasionaly M and S or Waitrose. The veg frequently looks tatty in the local Tesco, so i haven't used them for at least a couple of years.

MANEMAN Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Sainsburys, M&S, and Waitrose ? How common. We have all of our food flown down from Fortnum and Mason.I dont like to be a food snob, but it's just the type of people you are likely to meet in those aforementioned food outlets.Uuugh !

Belatucadrus Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 We are a shining example of brand loyalty. We are loyal to whichever supermarket is giving out the best vouchers at the time. Morrisons were doing a nice fuel voucher before christmas but our local branch hasn't got a station and by the time you've gone to the nearest one and back your savings have gone up in smoke.

Gandalph Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Well, I'm afraid I only purchase from Fortnum and Mason, 181 Piccadilly. Mind you I have to be quick to get home before the frozen stuff starts to thaw. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
