Horrible.
This was so disgusting I scraped it off our teatime rolls and threw the whole lot in the bin. No flavour. No seasoning. Horrible texture - How i imagine tiling cement would feel in the mouth. Whatever happened to Shippams? Where have the tasty pastes gone?
I'd buy this again (in fact I have)
I've avoided this for years but thought I'd give it a try for convenience. I was pleasantly surprised. I've only tried the fresh salmon pate which is ok but this is comparable in my opinion. If you think it's like the gritty crab paste from yer lunch box way back when then think again and give it a try.
Tastes fine
Tastes fine, but reminds me of an old girlfriend.
I bought some for sandwhiches but it tasted awful!

Poor
This smelled obnoxious when I opened the jar. Thankfully it didn't taste quite as bad as it smelled, probably because of the vinegar included in the recipe. The consistency was thin and watery - nothing like the consistency of, say, peanut butter or yeast extract. Overall it was an unpleasant experience which I don't plan to repeat. I suspect the parts of the cod & haddock that were used to make it were the off-cuts from fish that is trimmed for restaurants or fish & chip shops rather than muscle flesh from steaks and fillets. I am sorry the recipe uses farmed salmon and not wild because of the animal cruelty. The shoulder of the jar made it awkward to scrape all the paste out. The jar's shape could be improved ergonomically. However, I am grateful to Tesco for printing a very helpful instruction on the lid: "Twist to open". Without that advice I might never have figured it out!

Salmon for supper
Noticed this salmon paste on sale and wondered whether to try it. It reminds me of the contents of a school lunchbox. I spread it on some water biscuits for supper...
