    Hi folks :) I hope you’re having a great day so far! Welcome back to what’s for tea, and I hope I find you all very well.
    We spent just over £30 on Asda Just Essentials :) I do have some cheese and chicken still to get. But this will do us for the week.
    If you like these types of videos, please leave a like so that I know you like them…and I’ll do more in future.
    Until I see you next, take care x

    I love watching British shopping because of the different items available than in the States, and also the prices that may be rising there, but not as high or as fast as ours.

    This should be interesting to see what Asda's just essentials would be like in the coming week Chef👩‍🍳whether, any good, better, or avoid, I usually go to the Co-op or the Spar, which some of their goods are alright but as some has told me a bit costly so I have started going to Aldi even if it's a few more miles but so far cheaper and some of the products surprisingly are pretty good too !!😋👍.

    The tins all look similar - reminds me of a really low-budget series of shops called Happy Shopper - if you haven’t got your glasses on, you might pick up the wrong tin - pie, chips and peaches - or you might wonder why your porage tastes horrible - after all, you put plenty of salt in it - it’s not porage - it’s soap powder - which explains why your laundry isn’t clean and your washing machine no longer works! And you don’t serve tinned mixed veg and custard for dessert!

    You really should check out the Bald Foodie Guy on TH-cam. He compares a lot of the store brand stuff to the name brand stuff. He’s fun to watch too. Down to earth just like yourself. Will be interesting to get your take on the quality and taste. Mind you, those sausages will not be anywhere as good as the butcher’s. Sometimes it’s worth paying a bit extra for quality.

    We only have a relatively small Asda on the less convenient side of town, and only visit occasionally. However, most of the yellow label products we have tried have been quite acceptable. A few, such as the cheese and onion pasties, have gone straight in the bin.

    I thought you got quite a bit for your money there Cheryl. Those cooked chicken chunks look good, so do the kievs. And let's face it, a tin of peas is a tin of peas however much you pay. My hubby prefers supermarkets own cheap brand baked beans to heinz, he says heinz beans are too sweet. Good yo try new essentials ranges out from the supermarkets, & what's the worst that can happen..if you don't like certain products you don't buy them again. Good to see what you can get for your money 💰
