Retailing at 28p a packet, you really don't expect much from it. As a student, you are willing to try anything for food, especially if it's cheap and you don't get much cheaper than the green and white packaging that screams Asda Smart Price. Pasta is a core food for students and I love the Bachelors cheese and broccoli pasta but naturally any way to cut shopping costs was welcome and at 28p, if it was rubbish, I'd lost nothing.

I love foods that are quick and easy to prepare myself with minimum fuss and/or effort. I'm not the worlds best cook and when I cook just for myself I really can't be bothered messing about for hours though of course I do appreciate decent food. Though not really being a meal person and more of a snackaholic I like to be able to fling stuff in the microwave and this when I saw it in Asda appealed to me because I really love pasta, cheese sauces and broccoli and I thought it had to be worth a try!
