Tesco Value Unsmoked Back Bacon Reviews

Bacon is a treat in my house. I buy it for Sunday mornings and I use the remainder in pasta dishes during the week. I bought this value product on Friday for £1.35 in preparation for Sunday breakfast. ***********Packaging *********** As you would expect the packaging is very basic, it's almost air packed into the ...  Read the complete review

My mum brought a pack of this Value bacon last week to try it, she's a bit snidy there buying such cheapo looking bacon because she doesn't eat it herself! lol It's not that bad even though it looks disgusting in the cheap plain plastic pack, I've had a couple of sandwiches out of it and my dad had the last 4 rashers with his dinner ...  Read the complete review

Tesco Value Unsmoked Back Bacon ============================== We bought this Friday afternoon intending to have it Sunday morning but instead decided to make some bacon baps on Saturday afternoon, boy what a waste. The pack cost £1.35 and to be honest had that squashed look even before I opened the packet. Once in ...  Read the complete review

I have to admit I am cheap, if I can find a cheaper way of doing something I generally will, most recently this has involved swapping some of my weekly shopping items for tesco value products, its worked well with Chopped Tomatoes being great, Tortilla Chips being pretty damned good and the choc ices and milk lollies having a real taste that i've ...  Read the complete review

Bacon, one of the key ingredients to making a nice fry up or Presto pasta, and many other dishes. Like any other type of meat it is possible to get a range of them from premium quality to the lower and cheaper alternatives. For a long time, I have always had the suspicion that paying premium prices for the more expensive and well known ...  Read the complete review

If you think about it, most food is extremely versatile. Most things can be the main part of a meal, or act as a smaller ingredient to a larger recipe for something. I find that bacon is one of the more versatile ingredients to use, and we regularly have it for a variety of dishes. There are many different types of bacon you can get, ...  Read the complete review

This is the third in my value trilogy. This is not the bacon to be buying if you want lovely even rashers of bacon on your plate. The reason this is value bacon I think is not because of the quality of the bacon but the fact that it is full off mis-shapen slices - obviously the ends when the bacon has been sliced and slightly thicker ...  Read the complete review

I had planned to make a bacon quiche last weekend and when my brother heard this he asked me to make him a couple and also mentioned that my nephew, on his way back to university the following day, would appreciate one to take back with him ensuring that he and his impoverish flatmates ate properly for at least a day or two. I ended up making ...  Read the complete review

I have noticed that everytime I visit Tesco`s more and more people are scrutinising the prices carefully. Heads are bowed over the shelves and you can sense that everyone is doing calculations in their heads. Bacon used to be a reasonably priced meal, bacon and eggs with a slice of bread and butter is lovely and tasty. But just take a ...  Read the complete review

Tesco Value Bacon is a product I have avoided stoutly over the years, although I use other value products with no qualms. When I saw it reduced down to 32p though, I decided 'what the heck' and bought some. The price of bacon has really shot up in the last year, so much so that I am normally forced to buy a measly 4 rasher pack which is still ...  Read the complete review

Packaging The 250g pack of bacon is packaged in a plastic vacuumed pack. There is a sticker on the front of the pack, with the Tesco logo on the top left corner, the product name located in the top center, quick glace nutritional information on the top right side. With a central picture of some lean tasty looking cooked bacon. ...  Read the complete review

I have just eaten some of this awful, tough, chewy and cheap bacon. I bought it at the weekend for about a pound and thought I'd got a real bargain but not so. The packaging is just plastic wrap, no solid carton or anything but who cares about that if the bacon is nice? There are about 8 slices in the pack, much the same as other ...  Read the complete review

I may be a little biased in this review in the fact that I find smoked bacon far superior and tasty than its plain unsmoked cousin, however I can at a push eat unsmoked. I find unsmoked goes better if you are having it with something with a fruity taste to it, for example it is nice with rings of pineaple on toast, or in the classic ...  Read the complete review

As you will know if you have read my previous reviews, I like to eat different things, I'm not one of those people who can stand eating the same thing everyday. I also love to swim which really helps to burn energy, there is a rumour, whether it is true or not that if you swim for two hours then whatever you eat in the hour afterwards will just ...  Read the complete review
