Heinz beans are best, no ifs, buts, maybes....I grew up on a big tin of beans a day.

That's cool, but I very rarely eat baked beans, and Del's happy with the ones from Lidl, 'tarted up' with some herbs and tomato puree

I shop (in order)
Waitrose
Morrisons
Lidl
Now, if i could get everything i needed in Lidl, then i’d scrap Morrisons altogether.
One thing i will say is that Lidl’s fresh fruit and veg knocks Morrisons into next week. It’s always very very good and cheap, and also as has been said, their cold meats are top drawer as well. But i’m really not a fan of their copy brands i.e cereals, butter, beans, razor blades etc etc.
Yes, they’re cheap, but i’d rather pay a premium for something that tastes or performs better.

Completely agree, Jon, but we don't buy those from Lidl or Aldi, so it's a non-issue!

Surprised you use Waitrose so much. Yes, *some* of their stuff is worth the price premium and genuinely high-quality, but for me a LOT of it is vastly overpriced pretentious nonsense, designed to 'impress' the snobbish middle-class trendy types, who generally shop there [yourself obviously excluded], and who 'get off' on that kind of thing and obtain a 'warm glow' from walking out with a Waitrose bag.

TOTALLY *NOT* our thing!

...even though affording it is not an issue.

not as dear as donald russell i bet still, they can supply so they get the work from me.

[Marco]

Lol - indeed. It was me who put you onto them (as we'd used them in the past), so I'm glad it's worked out well!

Why would Del be keeping you away from baked beans?

[anthonyTD]

Ohh, you don't want to go there!

Indeed, but to be fair, it has to be a two way Street!

One could make the same argument for Trump apologists and excusers who repeatedly try to play down his flaws, gaffes, failures and transgressions. The guy is insane but those who backed him cannot admit to themselves they failed to see what was obvious to the rest of us.
