Anyone noticed tesco meat shelves?

Options
Me and my OH were recently doing the food shop, when we noticed the meat shelves in Tescos have been replaced as black ones (usually white).

Does anyone know the reason for this?

Yes, bit of a Norris Cole question but we have been scratching our heads over it :rotfl:

    I noticed this when I was in tonight. I thought it was because the white ones were getting a bit manky, but it can't be if it's nationwide.

    Partly to stop them looking grimey and knackerred as they get older, partly to make the colour of the meat (especcially read meat) more eyecatching.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    I think skivenov has it spot on, produce always looks fresher and more colourful on a black background.

    In all vegetable growing competitions, black backgrounds are used.
  • it's also probably another thing they've changed to look better (as they've done with their value, finest packaging
