please please please talk to your sales reps. it is hard enough being vegetarian without having to struggle with shrinking lines in supermarkets.i live in the torbay area,where i am lucky enough to have 1 asda,2 sainsburys,2 tescos,numerous co-ops and 1 morrisons….morrisons being the only place i can find your quorn roasts,which consequently means an hours round trip.as christmas is coming i wished to stock up with 6 of these to see us through,but guess what? the only place i can get them has none,as is often the case when the supermarket runs out(always)it is usually a month before they are restocked,so again this christmas it looks like plenty of roasties but no roast. you need to push your products more we vegetarians do count
MERRY CHRISTMAS
I can’t understand why anyone would ever use animal mince when quorn is fat free and tastes as good if not better.
Amen to the post above. Such a struggle to find Quorn products in most shops I have stopped bothering.
I have become really disillusioned by ALL the main supermarkets when it comes to “choice”!. My nearest small supermarket 4 miles away only ever has Quorn mince & Linda Mc C sausages which is a start, yet 7 miles away my “big” Tescos has ONE FREEZER ONLY for vegetarian stuff! They have all their own “Tesco” branded veggie burgers & mince (which are disgusting!) yet only 3 Quorn products! (Pies, Pieces & Mince!) Sometimes they stock the sausages in the fridge bit, with ‘Fresh’ quorn mince, but if i go in there on Friday iam usually left with nothing to buy, so i have to end up going to the “Health food Shop” where everything is about 20% more expensive!
Why are vegetarians so picked on in this way by the retail giants? Meat eaters would never be forced to go without THEIR bacon!
I too wanted a Quorn Roast for xmas, spent a week trying to purchase one to no avail! Ended up with Linda McCartney pies for xmas dinner… Thanks Tesco & all others who don’t care about not eating meat products! Quorn mince rocks by the way, now rants over!!
