Has anyone else noticed the marked decline in the quality of Tesco's own brand cottage cheese with pineapple. It used to perfect, plenty of solid curds and pineapple chunks. Now it seems to have much less curds and chunks and lots more liquid. I wondered if this has anything to do with the new packaging? as they have replaced the foil lid with a plastic one.

Tesco are buggers for doing this!!!

It's their bait and switch scam!

They launch a new product under their 'Finest' label on special offer and it will be gorgeous.

Two months down the line they change the product but leave the packaging unchanged.

I was wondering if anyone would notice this!!!

Damn! Now everyone knows I shop at Tesco. boxedin

I don't agree with pineapple and cheese but these chaps make the best cottage cheese I've ever tasted:

I've seen it in specialist supplies places in the south but I'm not sure how widespread supply is.

I think I've seen this on the shelves of the local Happy Shopper or Mace. Worth a go I reckon (although the fat content is quite high for a 'low fat' cottage cheese).
