Had better

2 stars

A Tesco Customer26th September 2019

The swede I had delivered had been cut in 3 different ways with one small bit of outside skin left. It was wrapped but looked old and drying. Had great swedes before from tesco, not sure what went wrong this time. Please do not cut top, sides and bottoms off

Mix up your mash!

5 stars

A Tesco Customer5th August 2019

Always put off by the PREP, but took the advice of the lady at the checkout, ran it under the tap to clean it and NUKED it 20 mins in the microwave. Then used a spoon to take out the soft middle, mashed with butter and pepper and lo and behold, different topping to my increasingly more vegetarian cottage pie - nothing wrong with that!

Advertised large swede arrived half a small swede

A Tesco Customer10th March 2019

quality was OK, size wrongly labelled

Call that large !

A Tesco Customer12th February 2019

Ordered large Swede and received something far smaller.. I grew up in an area where they grow Swedes and helped gather them when I was a Child.. So I know my Swedesor Turnips as we used to call them. Not sure if I was sent a small one instead ( no way to tell from the label) and couldn't send it back because I rely on home delivery for all my food shopping. It would be a good idea if there was a weight range so bad a better idea of what I was paying for. Dread to think what size a normal sized Turnip is! Very disappointed.

The whole truth is it's a half

A Tesco Customer3rd February 2019

Advertised as a large swede - what you get is half a large swede

not as pictured, you only get a cut 1/2 of a swede

1 stars

A Tesco Customer28th January 2019

you only get 1/2 a swede, not a whole one as pictured,...this is very misleading...

A Tesco Customer19th November 2018

Very disappointed. Ordered two of these LARGE swedes for a home delivery and was delivered parts of swedes (a half and a third!). Certainly didn't meet my expectations of a large swede. Wish I could post a photo!

Unacceptably small 'large' swede

2 stars

A Tesco Customer14th November 2018

'Large' swede have been incredibly small of late. A few times being little more than the size of a large apple! Other times when a swede might have been more sizeable they have cut them in half - meaning the swede is still small but also deteriorates very much quicker. Not acceptable Tesco! Please deliver swede which are large in size not just in name!

your turnip (as per IS NOT a TURNIP IT IS A SWEDE

A Tesco Customer11th November 2018
