I have just received my order-perfect-nothing broken and all as requested-ordered Thursday-lovely.

Still waiting for mine.Had a text yesterday to say it was packed and waiting to be picked up by the courier but nothing since.

Just had my first delivery today (ordered on the 1st, they tried to deliver yesterday but I didn't hear the doorbell). 4 cases of beef jerky - almost 100 packs.

Very pleased with delivery & packing.

Just put in another order for noodles, nuts & snacks ~28kg for £32 delivered.

I'm gonna try to keep my orders to one a month - unless they have an unmissable bargain like the jerky again.

That's what I said too, to start with........... (10 bottles of Caramel Crackin Ice cream sauce and suddenly I've got a £17 order waiting to be picked and packed)

Recieved my order today (I placed another order yesterday, this one was from last week when they were having an Easter break). Really happy with the honey jerky, so yummy and the dog loves it!

Went on approved food site for first time in many months, have done 2 orders previously and been pleased with it. However although some things still good value - alphabet decorating icing stuff for example - many now not much better than tescos, biscuits for example comparable with when on offer in tesco. Has anyone else noticed this?
The other problem I have with approved food is that an awful lot of the items are processed, not much basic stuff. Otherwise a good site.

I agree that there are some things that aren't as good value as supermarkets etc. Yesterday i was in B & M and they had the pretzels i ordered, they were only 10p per bag (I paid 12p per bag) and the croissant were 10p per bag (I paid 16p per bag). On the whole though, I have been very happy with my orders, with the customer service and with the delivery, so as long as it's only a few pennies here and there and as long as i am still benefitting from huge discounts on other items, i think it all evens itself out.

Got my delivery this morning-all great stuff-one item was missing-I ordered 4 but only got 1 but I rang up and they will refund that.Tucking into some biscuits now-yum.
