What's happening to M&S food?

I agree the 3 items for £10 is not very good at all at the mo. The salmon steaks are tiny and £3.33 for 2 chicken breasts isnt a bargain IMO. I bought chicken thighs at full price instead.

I now go to waitrose for the odd nice thing, I agree Marks food is no longer anything special.

I bought a sweet and sour chicken meal just before Xmas and when I took the card board sleeve off, the sellophane had been nibbled at by a mouse or rat and the chicken had bites out of it. Needless to say I have'nt bought anything since.

We had some of the cappucino muffins and they tasted of absolutely nothing!

What did they say when you took it back?

I used the vouchers too, I thought the quality and for what you get was pretty good. I only buy meat there, no its not cheap but sainsburys isnt much cheaper and asda meat is definately no. The butchers around here are not the greatest.
I did just buy mainly meat ( 3 for 10) half price cheese,

i agree the fish was small bu its sustainably sourced, fish seems a lot more in waitrose.

all supermarkets are cutting quality but i find M&S has cut the least.saying that i dont buy ready meals apart from the desserts which have def gone up and i have stopped buying them now.

I had found "the cook menu" has gone down in quality. I used to buy their olives but found the past few times they were off even though they were within their sell by date

I got a meal for 2 for a tenner the other day, a decent sized chicken ( price label was over £6) a bottle of wine some parmentier (sp) potatoes and a couple of very tasty Creme Brulee in reusable ramekins I though that was good value to be honest..the chicken did us for dinner and sandwiches for lunch next day and the wine is on ice for later, I try not to drink on a work night...except Sunday!
