I shop at Lidl from time-to-time, but invariably, it's only for certain brand products, with continual 'offer' prices, such as Pepsi's etc.

A couple of months ago, I followed a suggestion of a friend, who told me that I would not tell the difference between any Lidl product and those of Tesco or Sainsbury's store brand.

The first thing I tried was chopped tomatoes...it may have been just bad luck, but it seemed as if I had more roots and stems than I'd ever seen before. However, I accepted that this could happen and bought a couple of more tins...which are in my pantry now.

Then I bought a several brands of sausage. As I recall, I bought a knockwurst and a bratwurst...and I 'think' I may have bought some sliced gammon as well...too long ago. After cooking the sausages, neither I or my children could eat them. They were awful. I do understand this is a subjective view...but oh my...they were terrible!

Part 2

The last item I bought was for a school outing. I was proud of myself by buying ten tins of flaked tuna. Oh my goodness...not one, two, but the four tins we opened were vile. One of the tins had something that I'd swear was rat tail...it actually had something that looked like fur on it. The contents of another tin were almost red in colour. The third was a bit more acceptable, but there were lots of silver bits..finally, out of exasperation, I scooped all of the tins into the trash & went to Tesco and bought Princess brand.

Personally, I'm fine with the tesco brand tuna...but what Lidl had, in my opinion, resembled floor scrapings from a processing plant. I certainly might have been able to force a sandwich down myself...but I couldn't endure the thought of serving this to the children. The same thing comes to mind when I see Tesco selling their brandline of sausages...I really don't need to tweak your imaginations to help you understand what is in a package of sausage skins that cost 28 pence a pack.

I, just like most of you, enjoy finding good value for money. However, as I share very often with people: The cheapest is not always the least expensive. I agree that M&S line is too expensive...and of course they have a marginal 'snob' factor going as well...But at the other end of the spectrum...I value what I place inside my body and especially what I serve my children. Inbetween, there's a balance...I'm afraid Lidl has never succeeded in tweaking my taste buds...and besides, when it comes to value for money...I make much nicer, more luxurious, and better presented items than you could ever buy on a high street...And...there's always that special 'secret' ingredient.... I add a bit of love to what I make... Beat THAT M&S! :-)

Gute Appetite!

I think the fancier the sarnie the more expensive it is. Cheese and onion, egg, tuna are really the most basic ones. I saw one in Tesco the other days which was something like chicken chilli, saurkraut and pear. Something limited edition! Was really expensive!
P.S there are a few things I think are okay from Lidl.. tinned potatoes, kidney beans. pesto and stuff like ravioli.

Just come back from Asda and their cheese and onion sandwich is 88p so Lidl beats it.
