yeah i think ASDA are doing a good job too, definitely ASDA are the winner.... I'ts ASDA vs. ASDA -.-

I work at ASDA. dont open till 7.00am so give the guys a chance to put the fresh stock out . for best results

No they are feeding them crap that will take many years off their lives.

I agree on the whole there where their 'yellow' ? budget range is really good. Itself its going up though !! Possible star of the asda yellow show the 8 fish fingers, were 69 now 80 but very good.

@@mentalasylumescapee6389 How did you escape ? I want to get out myself to enjoy these luxury essential ranges in the shops.

Thank you

cheers pal

Bit late to this video but thanks for that explanation. I always wondered why some did that while others would peel nicely

Cheers pal

Thank you pal

Totally agree

Thats my fav too.

Lidl my local at Rothwell never seen Sausage and mash.

Yes. Though i do shudder a bit at the way Lidl & Aldi are Geobbels family companies ( yes THAT Geobbels )

Thanks xx

Cheers Byron

Cheers Tony, you're welcome

Cheers pal yes will try them ones.

Cheers Philip

Thank you

Yes agreed, but if your in a hurry or just need a quick microwave meal at work rather than boring sandwiches their a good little alternative. I buy microwave meals purely for work as it’s cheaper than buying food at work everyday and it means I can have a hot meal, instead of dull, cold sandwiches.

@@matty6848 yes it is each to there own I suppose

I'll remember to pack my frying pan for work tomorrow. Also a camping stove. I was going to take one of these to work with me.

I get where you're coming from. I abhore ready meals. I almost always cook everything fresh (Including homemade butter and cream cheese)

@@Matt19matt19 no excuse. You can cook extra and pack the rest in a glass container with a lid What do you think ready meals are? It's pre made. Made in bulk for later consumption. When I ever do a stew or anything I always do bulk and then freeze the rest. I have a large chest freezer in addition to my fridge freezer. Means less cooking and washing. You only got to use chopping board/chopping knives etc once. Only got to cook once. I think reheating in microwave is a price to pay for the lack of the aforementioned washing of pots pans /etc and frying/boiling etc

... and a fiver to cook if you got the leccy meter topped up.😂😂😂 Nah you are right we all need to simplify things and tighten the old purse strings.

Cooking for 1 tho so I would be left with loads of sausages potatoes full pack of butter and gravy that I now need to use before it goes off so more expensive to buy

Cheers well do

Haha yes

cheers Sam

Cheers Jean, all the best.

Thank you 👌👌

Cheers Bob

Thank you!

Cheers pal

I did a costing of the items separately. 83p a portion (4 portions total with leftover pots etc) £3.32 for a very hearty meal for a family of 4. I do bulk buy my foods though. £2.99 for 10kg of local potatoes!

Yes as a pensioner. But when your working 60/70 hours a week I like I do as a long distance lorry driver plus staying away in my cab those microwave meals are a god send. Just pop them into the truck microwave for a few minutes and their done. It’s either that or you end up spending a absolute fortune at the motorway services for cheap, crap mass produced food like McDonald’s or KFC etc. I buy a weeks worth from Aldi or Asda, pop them into the truck fridge freezer on the Monday, which means I can tuck into a half decent hot meal every night without spending 10/15 pound at the services. Then it’s onto my bed with a decent book or film to watch on my Tablet and drift off too sleep with a full belly🙂

Cheers Robin

Cheers pal 👍👍

Sounds great!

You're welcome

Haha thank you kindly. Yes maybe watch later lol

Glad you like them!thanks for views

cheers you're welcome

I've been meaning too try Asda carbonara but never brought one. Is that the spaghetti meal in the green sleeve packet? If they are nice I'll try one. Because I'm a long distance lorry driver and sleep in my cab I have a fridge freezer, microwave and even a coffee maker in there, all fitted out by the manufacturer designed for away living. Even though we get a allowance for food you start eating KFC and McDonald's everyday it gets expensive. Plus you get bored of them very quickly and they're no good for you. Where as microwave meals you have the variety and chosen carefully they're not all bad for you.

@@matty6848 Hey! Yes, it's the one in the green sleeve packet. I love them! Of course, I add salt, pepper, and garlic granules to really jazz them up. I've even eaten them after I've frozen them and they aren't bad. You just have to stir them more because they are a little more watery from the thawing process. I wouldn't say carbonara is good for you, but it's certainly tasty! Also, the Tesco versions are basically the same, BUT the large family size (1.5Kg) pasta bake is absolute crap. The penne is basically mush. I do NOT recommend. 😜

@@Maeda_Miakoda_Gaming thanks I’ll definitely try one then. As a long distance lorry driver microwave meals are a life saver for me. I do have a gas camping stove in my cab, but it’s so easy and convenient just to pop a meal into the truck microwave for 4/5 mins and I have a decent hot meal😋

My dad puts sweet chilli sauce in Aldi’s spaghetti carbonara, I've tried it and it's actually nice. He also dips sausage rolls into egg mayonnaise (which is like normal mayo but extra eggy). I swear my dad was put on this earth to destroy all British cuisine (I know that spaghetti carbonara isn't British but who cares)

Thanks 👍kizzy

Cheers Henry

You're welcome mate, hope your well bud.

Will do cheers

Agree with you completely there. There are some rum looking, gristly, low meat ones out there.

Cheers Mark good shout

Haha me to Emma we got the same sense of humour x

I love it too. 😂

There will be a meeting of the ASDA board of directors tomorrow, only point of their schedule 'the SP-test' and i guess heads will roll!!

Cheers pal

Scouse 😋

@@tormentedsoul906 steak onions carrots potatos 🥔 lovley gravey packet of vegetable soup to throw in buns spot on 👍

Oh an musrooms an garlic 👍

Mushroom & garlic in scouse? Do you put veg soup in yeh? 🙂

@@tormentedsoul906 yea mate just 1 pkt of veggy soup also can you add vege stock 😁 ... very nice 👌 👍 🙏

Yes you're welcome James. Can't beat a butchers 👍👍

Nicely put ❤

The important thing with sausages is to avoid the ones with preservatives containing nitrites in. Nitrates can cause polyps, which a lot of us have in our guts, to turn cancerous.

Or pan fried with cabbage for bubble and squeak😋

Cheers Rick have a good Sunday pal, all the best mate

You're welcome 👍👍😊

Cheers Gerry.

Yes good point definitely

Sounds great! Cheers Darren. 🍻

Thank you both will do x

ive not yet pal cheers

Cheers will do

He said it was the sausage that tasted strange, can’t pimp that much.

I have a pre payment meter and living mainly on my own apart from when I have my lads every other weekend it’s actually worked out cheaper for me as you genuinely only pay for what you use. rather than those on estimated bills or those on smart meters that everyone swears are more expensive and ripping people off. Plus living on my own I have a small two bedroom flat that heats up really easy. I only have to put the central heating on for 15/20 mins and the flat is lovely and warm. When I lived in my old house with the ex wife and kids my gas and electricity bills were through the roof. Now I’ve brought this flat, it’s cheap as chips. When I don’t have my boys I switch the radiator off in their bedroom which means I only have my living room, bedroom, bathroom too heat up as the kitchen is right next to the living room that gets heated up just fine without even having the radiator on. Yep I’m a tight arse, especially with my bills😂

Thank you

If you can afford it, go for it

Cheers pal

Cheers pal look in my comparison playlist 👍

@@BaldFoodieGuy l will just found it thx

@@BaldFoodieGuy l must say thx for replying personally a lot of sites don't bother now. ♥️

cheers Helen

Yes agreed. Im a long distance lorry driver and when staying away in my cab those microwave meals are a life saver. Simply pop them into the truck microwave serve up on a plastic plate and I’m well away. Beats eating crappy McDonald’s and KFC every night at the services which are massively expensive and bad for you. I can’t even stomach KFC anymore just way too salty for me. And McDonald’s is just completely bland and tasteless🤢

@@matty6848 In cab microwave 👍🏻 I haven’t enjoyed KFC for years and Burger King has gone right downhill 🤮 and you’re right bloody expensive 😡

@@thornbird6768 they are expensive. Domt get me wrong we get a daily allowance for lunch and tea but you have the hassle of putting your expenses in then you have too wait another bloody month too get that money back. Plus when your eating out 4 nights a week, its gets really expensive. I just try all the frozen meals, Asda do a nice frozen king prawn curry and rice for 2 quid, and that gives you a decent little tea. Or the frozen beef or chicken dinners only £1.50 each. What I do as they're tiny I double up two of them so it makes like a proper size cooked dinner, or buy extra thinly sliced beef in gravy pouch and add that. 5 mins later a proper cooked dinner in my cab. I also like asdas own toad in the hole, basically buy my microwave meals separately put the receipt in and my firm pay it back as food expenses. Occasionally I'll treat myself especially if the newer services have the food atriums where they have chinese noodle bar, idian food stall, or some other specialty food. That's for Thursday nights, my last night out before going home Friday. Then it's up on the bunk with Netflix on my I pad curtains closed, earphones in for movie night. Love it in my cab, especially when it's raining hard outside or really windy like gale force winds which rocks the cab, but sends me off too sleep. As for the night heater it's brilliant. It could be minus 10 outside and there i am just t shirt and shorts in my cosy cab 24/25 c warm as a bug in a rug😂

Cheers Carl

Cheers pal

Thank you Glenda very kind of you.

Cheers Phil all the best mate

Thank you

Asda, thanks very much x

If you read the Ingredients it's actually alright. It's a long list but actual proper Ingredients. Usually the packaging is just filled with a gas to preserve it.

Peel seal failed, going to be a rough night 🤣🤣👍

Cheers Pal, all the best mate

Much appreciated

I've done a lobster review be in Iceland playlist

@@BaldFoodieGuy Hi, I've only stumbled onto you recently. Saw your goofy toothy grin and decided to have a look. I too like the things you like food wise. But being in Australia only see a few brands you have. I don't know about your Iceland playlist, so you must have been doing this a while, amazing the crap food hasn't killed you, lol. Anyway keep up the good work. I don't know how much you put in the bin as just rubbish food, but I have. Best wishes, Bob.
