Old stock
Don't believe the 2+ days. The store will get rid of its oldest stock first. Delivery on 10th had 11th bbf date.
Disappointing
Disappointing. Usually better than bagged salads, romaines have been acceptable on previous deliveries when there was a bit of time on the date, but this week lettuce was on its last minute before expiry - not great.
Really good value
The Romaine lettuces that I have had from the UK were large enough to serve 4 portions per lettuce. I leave one lettuce untouched in packet in my salad drawer and it stays fresh for up to a week. I initially wash one but only cut the leaves prior to serving. Keep washed leaves in water in a sealed container in the fridge and they stay fresh for 3-4 days (no brown edges).

Worst (un)fresh veg ever
The quality and quantity was dreadful. Truly the worst Romaines I have ever had. They both had only 3 or 4 leaves on (barely enough for 1 person). It was maybe 10-20% the size of what it should have been. It should never have been picked (for my click and collect). Come on Tesco (Lincoln) - this was one of 3 fresh veg items that were in an appalling state and should have been thrown away not sold. The one saving grace is that I called customer services and got a refund without argument.
Soggy lettuce
If you look at the picture on the site..Romaine lettuce looks nice and green and crispy....When t arrived the outer leaves were a horrible dark green and the whole thing was very wet and limp...Threw it away was not nice at all
INFERIOR QUALITY. WENT STRAIGHT IN THE BIN !!!!

Tiny lettuce with hardly any green leaves.
These romaine hearts have been terrible lately, tiny little lettuces only slightly bigger than a little gem lettuce and half the size of the bag they come in, with hardly and green leaves and just the yellow core of a romaine. Not sue why tesco won't sell regular romaine lettuces instead of these butchered romaine hearts.
Rubbish
Terrible. Incorrect description of “lettuce hearts”. There weren’t any hearts to speak of!
