Tesco Updates Meal Deals but Shoppers Find Issue
- Tesco has made a major update to its meal deals.
- Some shoppers have identified an issue, particularly in the summer months.
- The beloved supermarket's revamp may not be all positive for customers.
Bargain hunters in the UK are in for a treat as Tesco has revamped its popular meal deals, a staple for busy consumers seeking convenient lunch options. The supermarket's best-selling combination for the past two years has been the Sausage Bacon & Egg Triple sandwich, paired with McCoy's Flame Grilled Steak crisps and a can of Coca-Cola. However, Tesco is now shaking things up by introducing ice creams and ice lollies into the mix, available for as little as £3.40 with a club card. The new offerings include a variety of frozen treats such as Solero, Magnum, Calippo, Feast, Twister, Cadbury Flake cones, and Oreo ice cream sandwiches, replacing traditional snacks like crisps. This change has sparked excitement among customers, with many taking to social media to express their enthusiasm, calling the addition "revolutionary" and "game-changing." One user on X (formerly Twitter) exclaimed, "This is the best news ever!" Despite the positive reception, some customers have raised concerns about the practicality of including ice cream in meal deals. A viral post on the Instagram account UK Newest Foods highlighted the issue of melting ice cream, with users noting that it would likely melt before they could enjoy it as a dessert. Comments reflected this sentiment, with one user pointing out that by the time they finish their sandwich, the ice cream would be half melted, prompting a mix of excitement and caution among shoppers.
