    Yes, the toad in the hole is very good and the lasagne is nice. Heat given, they were 79p not long ago so it's fantastic value.

    Yuck, cheap processed food, so people not care what they put into their bodies.

    The Chilli Con Carne one is excellent... time to go fill up a draw of my freezer me thinks (they make for excellent midnight snacks).

    It’s not always a choice, people can make, sadly a lot of people are on a tight budget these days, don’t have or unable to cook from scratch so it’s a quick and cheap hot meal

    To copy Aldi and Lidls this does looks better, l would expect more people to buy and try these, a lot of shoppers wont have a clue these are value rebranded, a very clever mind trick by tesco. Tesco Adverts in the press seem to be copying Lidl, as long as no more annoying TV ads with that annoying families mundane tittle tattle at the till..!! Give me strength..

    65p frozen ready meals "very very good"

    Hmmm ok.

    Try Donald Russell for very very good.

    All supermarket frozen ready meals are extremely poor compared.

    Chilli con carne is nice, as is the Liver Bacon & Mash. At this price (a chocolate bar will cost yer 60p+) yer may as well try em out.

    Chili con carne made from scratch is the best


    Absolutely but it'll cost you a lot more than 65p a cover, unless you was cooking for a lot. The more you cook for the cheaper it is.

    Chilli con carne cooked from scratch? ABsolutely, and I feel the same way about spaghetti bolognese (my favourite) and TBH I wouldn't try the "Hearty" Spaghetti...unless I had no other option.

    My elderly neighbour is expecting a (free) delivery from Tesco today (free trial courtesy of HUKD ) and she is testing these Hearty food company meals in place of her Oakhouse ready meals, delivered weekly....at 4 times the price YES yes yes, the quality will be different, but 4 times worth different? I think not.


    EXAMPLE...Oakhouse ready meals
    Mini Spaghetti Bolognese A rich Bolognese made with minced beef, tomatoes, onions and mushrooms in a tomato and red wine sauce, seasoned with basil, garlic and oregano. Served with spaghetti. code: 466Weight: 240g @ £2.65

    OR

    TESCO

    Hearty Food Co. Spaghetti Bolognese 400G @ £ 0.65

    SO
    240g @ £2.65 v 400G @ £ 0.65
    Some will knock this "Brand" (even if just because it's Tesco) but to many? it's this or nothing.

    Now it all makes sense. We don’t have a local Tesco apart from the little ones so don’t use them much. We were away at the weekend and used one for our essentials shop. I’m no snob but would usually go for mid range stuff. However I bought the Eastfields ham, Creamfields cheese and yogurts etc and can’t say there was anything wrong with them!

    Avoid the sausage and mash, it’s very bland save for the occasional off tasting pepper. Most of the others are pretty innocuous but that one in particular isn’t worth trying. It’s the saddest sausage and mash I’ve ever eaten.

    Only tried the lasagne after previous recommendations

    Some people must have very poor taste buds as it was just watery bland pasta with very little cheese or meat. OK for a lunchtime snack if you're desperate.

    LOVED the everyday value (tinned) Chilli con carne, and would prefer it (as no rice) to this, but that's not an option, so this is the next best thing
