    My local poundland has trays of ktc tinned tomatoes at £3 for 12 tins atm - choice of chopped or whole <snip>

    I looked for these in my nearest Poundland, but they didn't have any. It wasn't a very big store or food section, though.

    PS. I did find a butcher, selling cricket ball sized faggots for 40p each, so it wasn't a wasted journey.

  • Do you know what goes into those faggots? if you don't- then it's better you don't! I love them, by the way.

    Yes, I do. All the perfectly edible, delicious but ... how can I put this delicately? ... "unfashionable" bits! :)

    I am a stickler for the waitrose essential whole plum or chopped tomatoes; quality is better than any others I have tried and they are not watery so in recipes where I used to have to use two tins to get the depth of flavour I only need to use one and can add more stock or water, they ain't cheap but I only get them from ocado when there is a massive discount on my shopping then I class them as one of my 'free' items :D xx

    B&M are selling chopped toms with basil for 4 for £1. I got 8 at the weekend and stocked up as already have lots left from poundland.

    more calories means more tomato (& tomato byproducts!)
