    No - bacon is cured meat.

    Just found out my offer is minced beef (not lean) for £1 per 500g pack.
    Only 3 offers for myself also and the other 2 are:
    Tomatoes (loose as above) for 99p per kg
    Dolmio sauce for 99p

    Looks like another blank week and the Scottish offer are much better.

    I want chicken breasts (stamps feet and stamps them hard!!). :D

    Same here (Cumbria). I'll probably get the mince and tomatoes. I've never had the sauce before and usually make my own. Might give it a try.

    Whenever I see pork belly slices it always looks like 70% fat, like a pork chop with most of the meat removed. Am I missing something?!

    Pork belly is the same bit of the pig that streaky bacon is cured and made from.

    Yes, it's fatty, but meat needs fat to cook and don't add any extra. Grill it or fry it in a pan with just a little oil to protect any non-stick coating at first.
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)
