Avoid
Full of grit, absolutely vile, please do better Tesco.
Gritty
Really gritty which was such a shame, really made my meal horrid. Wouldn’t recommend buying these! Have never had this problem before ...

They are not ready to eat as the box says. The old mans beard as it's called and is what the mussell attaches itself to rocks needs to be removed. And also need a rince, sometimes a bit gritty.
Use by date the same day as delivery many times!
So many times my online delivery has been received where the product has a use by date of the very same day. Definitely will be avoiding purchasing this for delivery any more!
Disgusting!
Full of sand and just horrid. We ordered these as they were the only option available for online ordering, and put it this way: you get what you pay for!! Strongly suggest if your dish depends on using mussels, COOK SOMETHING ELSE or buy your mussels elsewhere. Yuck, yuck, yuck!!

Lots of grit in them. Not pleasant. Ending up throwing them away. Next time I'll make sure I order rope grown ones, lesson learned.

Unfortunately this product only had 2 days to be used instead of the 5+ days stated so had to freeze it.
Disappointed product, will not be buying again.
I have brought this product before and liked it but this time when I brought it, it was very sandy and when I put the pasta in my mouth I could taste the sand between teeth. This meant that I did not enjoy my meal. Thumbs down. In future I will not be buying this product again.
Not to be trusted
Just a word of warning regarding this product. I shopped this morning and picked up what should have been ready to eat mussels from the refrigerated section only to find they were frozen. There was nothing wrong with the fridge, no other fish or seafood was frozen, this was checked by the on duty manager who immediately withdrew all the packets on display. I can only draw the conclusion that they were wrongly put in the deep freeze when they arrived in store and were subsequently put out on the shelf from there. My issue lies with the fact that had I shopped after they were defrosted I would have been none the wiser and would have refrozen when I arrived home - definitely not recommended for any seafood. Come on Tesco, customers shouldn’t have to be policing what you sell. Train your warehouse staff and floor staff correctly so that they don’t put product for refrigeration into the deep freeze and then put frozen product into the fridge section. I now have absolutely no faith in this product.

Was very gritty the last time I bought some.
