In my last job I always used to walk past a Tesco Express on my way into work and, on the occasions when I couldn't be bothered to make myself lunch or just fancied something different, I'd always go in and buy myself this chicken and bacon pasta salad. This is one of those types of pasta that are perfect for buying for a lunch at work or just when out and about as they're a great size to fill you up nicely. It comes in the usual see-through plastic pot with a little plastic fork inside which makes it great for eating on the go. This isn't really a salad at all as there are no salad ingredients in it, but is purely a pasta dish. The pasta is short ...  Read the complete review

Today when I was out shopping in my local Tesco store I was starving! Terrible time to be out food shopping.... I know this now since I spent a fortune in there and I'm sure it's down to that fact lol. Anyway I decided to get myself some dinner and I quite fancied a ready made pasta dish and when I saw this sat on a shelf with other varities it looked nice and was as I said ready prepared so I bought it and rushed home, plonked it on my plate and was ready to go! How easy is that!? lol. The Packaging: See through oval and quite deep see-through plastic tub with a brown sticky label that goes down the middle of it and around the back of ...  Read the complete review

Since Tesco have gone all 'We are the nations biggest discounter', I noticed this crop up in my local Tesco store, priced at just £1.19 (was formerly £1.59 apparently) for a 450g pack. The salad comes in an oval plastic container with a fully removable lid sealed just by the plastic label that covers it. There is no plastic fork, but then I don't suspect that Tesco anticipated people like me eating the whole thing in one go as lunch! Yes, it is meant to be shared as part of a ploughmans or salad I expect, but for a hungry guy it serves as a complete lunch on the run pretty well. The price is also brilliant seeing as the pasta's in their 'take away ...  Read the complete review

When it's really hot like it has been the last few days, I actually find it quite hard to eat a substantial meal at lunchtime more than anything because of preparing it in the heat, so I tend to opt for a bowl with a bit of mixed salad in it. This is quite difficult to do however if you know you're going to be running around a lot during the day, and it's maybe not as substantial as a sandwich or something like rice or pasta. I happened to be in Tesco on Tuesday morning and spotted this salad and thought umm that might be a good idea for tomorrow. The reason - I knew I was going to be running around a fair bit trying to get things done, and having something ...  Read the complete review
