Not Good Value For |money
Watercress should be sold in bunches. Tesco, you can't make soup with a few leaves in a flat pack!! Selling it flat in a pack means you have to use it the same day. It does not store like a bunch would (head down) and you get less than half the amount. When I get my order from Tesco I don't have any choice so if I want watercress this is it! There is another supermarket that does nice big bunches wrapped in paper, the proper way. More value for money if you want to make soup.
Not fresh enough
Always same date or next day on it
Poor Quality
A bit disapointing lots of stalks and very small leaves wouldn,t buy again.

Expiry date 1st July, which is tomorrow and it’s going yellow in colour
2 bags of watercress just delivered dated 1st June
2 bags of watercress just delivered dated 1st June two days away but already yellowing and unusable for salads. Disappointing as thus far Tesco has been excellent in sending fresh produce.
Poor Quality
Watercress quality not good. The day it was delivered the leaves were all yellow, couldn’t eat it and had to throw it away. Waste of money.
more expensive than M &S,was not as fresh tasting.

Conflicting informtion on origin
I usually buy my watercress from the local farm shop as they always sell English watercress, but last week I bought some from Tesco as it said on the back of the package : "One of our trusted growers, Sean Ede, has been growing watercress since 1982 across 10 farms in Dorset and Hampshire." so I presumed it was English watercress. However, when I got it home I noticed on the front of the pack it says "Produce of USA" which is very misleading. I have to add that it was delicious as well as being nice and peppery, but I think you will agree that the packet gave conflicting information.
Insist in longer cuttings
the quality varies with different countries.The lower tasteful are when they harvest the tops only.The most tasteful are with more stems and from the UK!
