Asda Now.....

Asda fresh meat is close to inedible, tough, grissly, including 'Extra Special'.
The fish counter contains barely anything fresh or UK caught. It's virtually all either foreign, farmed or preserved.

The Asda TV ad, is great. A proud butcher in his pristine whites and rows of digitally corrected vegetables in perfect weed-free fields.

But, their 'Extra Spesh' boxed pizzas are bloody good.

I most certainly do, Asda is the most local shop to me.

Apart from here- Argal Farm Shop | Facebook, which is at the end of our road. The farm shop has quality gear, I use it regularly. The owners 'appreciate' my honest reviews on new lines.
