    It will say best before feb 14.
    Its not feb 14th.
    10:20 will be the manufacture time it was packed and be used for traceability reason. Though it can be confusing to put that in the same spot as the best before info.

    curiosity got the better of me today and while in co-op checked there hb mint sauce and it too says 5% dried.

    obviously Tesco is the clear winner here, with 29%. (as well as everybody that buys Tesco. :beer:).
  • 5% dried is probably the same or more as 29% reconstituted. At least ASDA are being more honest about what's going in.
