Does anyone shop here ? Is any of it actually edible ?

I am just doing a test delivery from the acado website and was wondering if anyone can advise me on any selections. I have ordered a fair bit of fruit and tried to pick the stuff that will have a bit of flavour and not be so synthetic tatsting. If anyone has any recommends then please pass them on.

Navigating through the meata nd fish is bit of a minefield though. Again, if anyone has any pointers or good selections then please pass them on.

Tips for good puds as well.

Thanks.

What do you mean 'is any of it actually edible'?

I've shopped there on occasion when location and budget have allowed. Excellent quality but a complete rip off in short.

is it edible ? is it any good, taste good ? (seeing as most supermarket meat, fruit, fish and veg is total junk)

yes people shop there.

Although I've been in many supermarkets in my time that were distinctly populated by non-humans.

I'm pleased that your delivery driver is well trained. I hope you pat him on the head when he leaves your expensive shopping in your kitchen.

I would be embarassed to let a likely-to-be 50-something guy carry my bags in from the van when I am an able-bodied individual capable of either getting the shopping myself or at least insisting that I help. Talk about highlighting the divide between you and him. Is your time so precious that you can't go shopping? Do you get satisfaction when the van pulls up and the neighbours (who do their shopping at ASDA) can see? I'd bet that you do.

Personally, if the fella had his own key and I didn't even have to get up off the couch to open the front door then i'd pay even more. Maybe these Ocado bods should cut your toneails and give the downstairs a quick hoover as well. HAVING YOUR OWN STAFF IS WHERE IT'S AT IMO
