So, are you saying Tesco won't accept Manx produce because they want to peddle Dobbin? Can you explain why Shoprite sprinkled their near out of date meat with marinade and repackage it? The only reason I can think of is to mask the meat. Why would you take a fillet steak and coat it with, say, a garlic and herb coating other than to create a smokescreen in the quality you are offering? Even the butchers do this don't they ? I've always been told to avoid the marinated things when buying meat from the butcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of them do it ..Have seen it in the one in Victoria street in Douglas. It might be good but I would rather marinate the meat myself.. It's like the boiled eggs that you sometimes see in supermarkets 🙂 Edited January 29 by mad_manx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopek Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Even if it's marinated in house, they will still observe the sell by date. Beef is probably good beyond the date, chicken not so! Do Tesco have a butchery dept any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
