    i have just recieved my second order and everything has been excellent. it arrived in about 4 days from order and everything was packaged perfectly, all jars bubble wrapped and extra card padding put in between items. got everything i ordered as well so cant fault atall.
    im so glad i found approved foods! we dont have any poundlands or any other discount shops near us so it has saved me loads of money.

    thank you dan and the team!:beer:

    We've had our 3rd order now, 2 this week.
    First one took an hour to unpack and check which was great fun. Second came yesterday. Both a surprise really as if you pay with Google checkout you don't get a dispatch email. Also a surprise as it was Good Friday.

    Packaging on both is wonderful, splitting some things across the boxes to make the best fit. And even adding extra items to balance it out or make it less likely to break in transit. Even got a nice sketch of a face on the back of an invoice :)

    It's truly amazing, really it is. Want to keep popping back and buying more but I've already spent so much!
  • Just arrived back from Chicago (competition win) to find our order here all present and correct. Everything packed well, everything in stock and even a couple of free Smartie eggs added! My kitchen is now bursting at the seams so I shall have to try and stay off the website for a while until we've eaten some of it. Approved Foods has been a joy to discover and it's great they seem to have got their despatch and stock control sorted.

    Son is requesting more beef jerky and I'd like some smoked sea salt, please Dan!

    Son is requesting more beef jerky

    I ordered 40 packs of the jerky as I know I love it.
    imagine my surprise when I not only got a few extra ones but they are not out of date until September!
    Those packets are £1.49 in WHSmiths. I saved over £50!

    There is one main problem with Approved Food. It's SO addictive!

    To be fair it's more often to be found in WH Smiths in train stations where they have other food, but it's sometimes found in other stores.
    I just happened to be in Kings Cross station and saw how much it actually costs (I'd normally just toss one in the basket in Tescos without looking).

    With AF you have to keep looking back. I got the naan breads last time as I'd missed out on them previously and they are great. The big boxes of chocolates look great too. My parents say they are exceptionally good!

    And us- we used to order with my email address and card, but have been ordering with my fiance's lately as it's easier.

    Anyway, he got the google order thing, but I got the despatch notification :confused:

    They must know that he is not to be trusted with high level information :rotfl:
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine
