xbones Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Anyone any idea why tesco are only stocking manx sausages and bacon?

Foxtrotlima Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 It is the foot and mouth restrictions as alpha-acid mentioned. The supermarket I work in has not had any mainland produced products in for a while now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonan3 Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Nothing to do with sausages... but I saw an advert on TV last night saying that, if you spent more than £50 at Tesco you'd get 5p per litre off their fuel. Obviously, that can't apply here, so shouldn't they be doing something else by way of compensating us? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikingRaider Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 How are McDonalds still able to sell burgers? They aren't manx made are they? Would have thought that was obvious ... they don't contain anything remotely resembling meat so they arn't affected by the ban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visionary Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Shock horror but McDonals does actually purchase their meat from the meat plant in Tromode, spent a year putting my back out packing vans for them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
