12 plump mussels ideal lunch or starter enjoyed it

4 stars

On the whole I enjoyed these. Each pouch was ideal for 1 person lunch with a baguette or as a starter, there was a dozen & they were a decent size and plump. I did have one with the beard attached & oddly a couple of empty shells, did think the sauce was a bit thin.

Not as good as doing your own with fresh mussels

3 stars

okay I guess - not as good as doing your own with fresh mussels. I added white wine and cream as otherwise I think the liquor would have been rather boring. Did also find quite a few 'beards' that should have been removed in the cleaning process. Not sure I would buy these again.

Unbearable salty

1 stars

Very poor quality mussels. Tasteless and unbearably salty.

Normally A good product but the last batch had 6

2 stars

Normally A good product but the last batch had 6 mussels that did not open after cooking. Very disappointing.

Too salty

2 stars

We were really looking forward having these, but they were so salty that we hard to leave them.

Nice

4 stars

Not as nice as the white wine mussels but the garlic ones are healthier. Good sized mussels. I will be buying again

Very small muscules and not many off them, liquer

2 stars

Very small muscules and not many off them, liquer was ok but item is very expensive when considering the amount of meat, I will go back to Tesco's own muscules in future.

Lovely juicy mussells

4 stars

I was surprised how lovely these were considering the price. I only have a small appetite but used both packs for main meal. They are a good size and plump. They tasted delicious and will definitely buy again. If you added some cream to the sauce they would be amazing. Well worth the price.

Restaurant Quality Garlic Mussels

5 stars

Just as good as restaurant mussels in garlic. You need a big pan and one mussel was closed but overall superb and lovely garlic sauce. Perfect with crusty French bread to serve 2 at lunch. For an evening meal I'd buy 2 packs and have some mussels left over for a pasta.

Mussels were stringy sauce is very thin and needs

2 stars
