    Just eating a lasagne that I made with ASDA's own brand. MY, this stuff is gross. Straight away you can tell it's different from when you open the packet - the granules are bigger. I didn't think it would mean a totally different taste though.

    It feels like I am eating sponge.

    Not nice. I only saved a few pennies to the branded QUORN versions

    Secondly, ASDA nappies - much cheaper but have a horrible hard paper quality which is leaving marks on my baby's tummy.
