Thoughts are whatever the verdict it affects industry whole, not just TSCO who seemingly conjured these up in response to discounters. If the ruling is the packaging are unacceptable it's a minor waste of financing this brand exercise. But not fussed by any of this.

The packs are clearly marked with the country of origin, I bought Boswell Farms sirloin steak yesterday, right under the price and barcode it says 'Origin United Kingdom.'
Other packs were similarly Marked 'Origin Ireland'

There can really be no justifiable reason to complain, beef don't grow in factories it grows on farms. Unlike the pretend beef (Quorn) and butter substitutes that are made in plastics factories.

Before the launch, they did run it past the trading standards with thumbs up.....it is alleged.

I used to think that about the Readers Digest until I won 16 grand on their spot the ball competition. :-)

[diku] 11/7/2016 09:58

Local Tesco seems busier of late but for gawd's sake ,the store always feels like it needs a good clean .
Needs a good lick of paint
-------------------------------------------------

At the bottom of your receipt there is a £1000 competition which requires you to fill in a description of your experience today at the shop, did you do it?

If you tell them it's a mess they may do something about it, moaning on here won't get anything done.

Johnwise, all the food is clearly marked with the country of origin. In the case of British sources, it usually has the mame of the grower and his county. Customers know what these labels are.

[sr2day] 10/7/2016 09:55

supermarky,you obviously do not know the definition of a penny share.anyway if you are inve insted tesco soon you will realise what a penny share is.

Farm brand 'fakers':

Tesco 'cynically using British-sounding names to trick its shoppers into buying foreign food'


Supermarkets have been accused of 'cynically' inventing brand names that evoke the British countryside in order to dupe shoppers into buying imported food.

Produce sold under fictional names such as 'Nightingale Farms' or 'Rosedene Farms' might sound home-grown but in fact could come from as far afield as Morocco, Senegal or Honduras.

Now the National Farmers Union is 'seriously considering' legal action against leading stores for potentially misleading customers about the origin of their meat, fruit and vegetables.

Sad though it is, the Tesco DB Schemers have had a good run for their money.

Retailers like the banks will improve with the economy. It is a question of when not if, however Bank stocks will probably outperform retail short term.

By my reckoning they are saving £500m+/yr on their new staff pension contributions. In fact if staff take the 4% option not the 7.5%, tey'll save even more.

In the not to distant future I can see Morrisons being the number 5, as the big four will include Aldi.

[supermarky] 07/7/2016 16:53

It's already a penny share mate
