I have bought these chicken legs many times and find them very good value.There have always been 5 good size legs in the pack

A Tesco Customer14th November 2020

Nothing wrong with the product, but the packaging system is an issue. Like everyone else here, Tesco's fresh chicken is 'use by' dated two days lazier than got should be. I often find that one day before the pumpkin date, it's already humming like a beehive, and reeking to the heavens. I've had to resort to washing it in vinegar and salt water, which is a half cure. It's a serious issue, Mrs Tesco.

A Tesco Customer4th October 2020

As others have stated, the sell by date is very short and chicken needed to be cooked straight away. I cooked mine in my slow cook pot with tescos fresh chicken stock and the usual vegetables and they were delicious. There was so much meat on each leg that one leg did me for two meals. These are a great buy if you need them straight away.

Old chicken.

5 days plus? Delivered 16/08 use by 17/08. Bit of a pong. Had to cook immediately instead of marinating and using over several days. Not what we wanted al all. Shopper quality control problem?

Great buy for meal
