Tesco Value Chopped Tomatoes Reviews

Although generally speaking I think fresh is best, I always love to have a cupboard full of tins for emergencies. However one of my exceptions is chopped tomatoes. I use these quite a lot, particularly for making my cooked salsa. If I make fresh salsa then I do use fresh tomatoes but for the cooked salsa I make I do find tinned tomatoes ...  Read the complete review

These humble chopped tomatoes are the perfect ingredient to add to any Michelin star spaghetti bolognese. From personal experience I can't taste the difference between these tinned chopped tomatoes and whole tomatoes bought a couple of aisle's down from the Tesco's fruit and veg stall. This quality at this price is rarely found in modern ...  Read the complete review

I've been buying these chopped tomatoes for years and they are perfect for their price. They are sold in Tesco for 42p for a 400g tin. They have gone up in price over the last couple of months but everything has. I think these chopped tomatoes are great value for money, as some of the top brands are sold for well over a ...  Read the complete review

There are certain products that are staple products that I don't particularly think have to be massively high quality because they tend to be filler items or ingredients rather than the focus of a meal. One such product are tinned tomatoes which I always have several cans in my cupboard, but I do tend to go for the cheaper supermarket ...  Read the complete review

At 33p ( 8.3p/100g) these are really good value for money! They're the perfect store cupboard staple for all money wise cooks.

I would also recommend them as base for Indian sauces ( especially Jalfrezi) or blended with other ...  Read the complete review

Tesco Value Chopped Tomatoes in tomato juice. I have been trying to cut down the cost of my weekly food shop by downgrading to 'Value' products where possible.

When it comes to tinned tomatoes they are something I buy rather often really. I make a lot of dishes requiring a can such as spaghetti bolognese and chilli con carne and the likes and for years now I have been using 'economy' brands of them (till more recently!). The Packaging: The tomatoes come in a white, blue ...  Read the complete review

Some ...  Read the complete review

A tin of these these tomatoes costs just 33p for 400g. The tin is pretty basic it has a white label with the red, white and blue Tesco value colours. ...  Read the complete review

I love cooking! My family likes eating my food! But like any other busy mum, I have to count the pennies, especially in these difficult times, so any saving I can make when shopping, I do. I used to buy brand names when I was first married, thinking that they must be somehow superior to things like value brands, but as I have got older I ...  Read the complete review

As much as I love fresh tomatoes and home grown tomatoes, it is easier and cheaper to buy them in a tin. Fresh tomatoes can be expensive and to home grow tomatoes is a bit of a hassle ( plus I'm too lazy to try!). I object to paying a premium price for chopped tomatoes since I usually use them as a base for pasta sauces or to bulk up ...  Read the complete review

When I first left home I had very little money and Tesco Value brands became the main part of my diet. Some of the Tesco Value products are worse than the higher priced brands and some are perfectly edible, tinned tomatoes are one of the ones I consider to be as good if not better than the higher priced tins. I cook most of my ...  Read the complete review

Ahh the humble chopped tomatoes, if you're a fan of pasta listen up! Money: At only 23p (last time I checked) they are a bargain too with one usually being used in a meal but you could use half. So that means with a handful or so of pasta you can make a meal for around 30p tops! Epic value for money! Taste: These ...  Read the complete review

It's not really an exaggeration to say that Tesco's tinned tomatoes kept me alive during university. With all of my money ear marked for books and um... lets be honest, nights out at the pub, I didn't have a lot extra for buying fancy haut cuisine. At just under 20p a can, they can really help reduce your shopping bill. Considering that ...  Read the complete review

I bought Tesco value chopped Tomatoes 400 grammes for the first time a little while back, and I have to say that overall I wasn't very impressed. The can is presentable, with a picture of large, succulent pieces of tomato, without massive amounts of juice. They have, as you would expect, a long shelf life, but, at £0.35 per can, I ...  Read the complete review
