Tesco Value Food (and other budget brands)
 

What's your opinions on the budget brands?

I always used to assume they would be utter crap and tasteless because they are so cheap, but I have been enlightened!

Tesco Value Chicken Noodles - 8p - Tasty as!
Tesco Value Mini Swiss Rolls x 6 - 32p - Yum Yum
Tesco Value Chocolate - 27p for 150g, tastes almost as good as Dairy Milk
Tesco Value Lemonade - absolutely wonderful!
Tesco Value Apples/Bananas - whats the difference?
Tesco Value Orange/Apple Juice - tasty as!

I might yet become on of those people that has a shopping trolley full of Value goods - but there are some things you can't get away with buying cheapo goods:

Coke
Irn Bru
Baked Beans (Branston beans ONLY for me!)
Eggs (don't do battery hens, get ours from local farm, ALL double Yolk too!)
Crisps - Walkers or nothing!
Batteries

Are you a value-addict?

Just munched through a whole pack of tesco value chocolate sandwich bars (there version of the penguin)

taste the same imo

not really a fan of tesco value, but the normal tesco range is pretty good. there sausage rolls are nice :y:

I find Asda Coke is better the Coca Cola.. But nothing beats Pepsi.

tesco value orange juice! much much nicer then the branded stuff that costs £'ss

Noodles....8p..? Dare not imagine what sort of chemicals and shite is in them to get them at that price tbh.

Most of it might taste okay, but it's packed with shite.

That is the downside of it yes!

But things like fruit are ok!!!

Tesco value shit roll is like sandpaper!

am a snob... labelled foods ftw..

apart from morrisons coco pops (dont actually cost much less) but taste way nicer than the "real" cocopops lol

some Tesco Value stuff is actually pretty good,

Cant go cheap on everything tho, minimum cost maximum reacation

i woundlt dare, i wouldnt have balls left if i gave her that!


tesco value fruit ftw when making smoothies!

18p for a bag of salted tortilla dorito like crisp adictive and very salty but hey'up:y:

i wouldnt get value fizzy drinks, will be full of shit!

i buy them! nicee:P

Cheap stuff is better than expencive stuff...

smart price at asda range :y:

when me and the missus moved in together, we said we'd just buy value stuff to keep cost down

but tbh most of the important stuff was utter shit, some was ok though.

will never buy value meat again., all browna and stringy yuk :(

always buy value cards from tesco's, they always end up in the bin anyway!

Food has got expensive and all of a sudden the value prices look tempting !! However meat appears way cheaper at the local butchers - thats where im going from now on for all my meat produce

value cola is complete shite tbh

but some things really are the same as some major brands imo!

yeah the value fizzy drinks are horrible
