We've got to rely on Tesco's increasingly good range of organic groceries. We know this: they've just discontinued several of our regular buys. So goodbye to:
- Tesco's Organic Shortbread Fingers
- Tesco's 6 pack of organic ready-salted crisps
- Hawkwood pineapple chunks
- Strawberry Fizz.
It takes a lot to induce the ravens to hang around the Customer Services desk until; there's someone to quiz. It has to be said that the staff in Tesco are always helpful and so we checked each item on the computer and we left a complaint/comment (actually we now have a second complaint: the scrappy bit of photocopied paper which was the comments form did not inspire confidence!). So, since (except in Looby Loo's opinion) these aren't necessities we'll go without. Looby Loo will complain bitterly about the lack of her favourite biscuits and soft drink, she won't get to take crisps in her sandwiches, and we'll only get to have sweet and sour pork when we get a fresh organic pineapple in the weekly box. Or we flap off to Arjuna and see what they've got. If we're going to walk much further we might as well shop in a small store than trek off to an alternative supermarket (and anyway, we're still boycotting Sainsbury's).
