... for the price but I prefer the ones we sell - mainly because the pastry seems to be of a better quality or at least batter baked. So, that's what I think about Tesco's Cheese & Onion pasty: The pastry was ok, it didn't really convince me but it didn't put me off either. I had the impression that it wasn't really baked, far to moist and soft on the inside and too flaky, I ended up with lots of grumps all over the table.
