Let's hope they don't start going bad within 24h. Noticed that when they sell them this cheap

I think they are 1kg for £2 in Iceland's. Bought them yesterday.

British also. So heat added.

They are big size tasty

just bought some in my local Tesco

although not seen in Tesco extra Slough as of 1130 am today

Sadly now removed from online store :disappointed:

Likely only to be sold in the larger stores.

They are not tasty at all- bought some yesterday. They range from mildly sweet to watery and then to just plain sour. british strawbwerries are just the worst.

Local Aldi near me are doing them for 1.25 a Punnit... Scottish Strawberries (FIFE) , so only picked 1 hr away from my local store...
LOVELY!!

mmm .
need a size compare quote on here

The website doesn't seem to state which variety they are and that makes a big difference. The other day Tesco were selling their Finest Driscoll variety in the perfectly imperfect boxes so I was able to grab a few of them and they were delicious. Their average Sonara variety are not as tasty so it'll help a lot if someone who bought the 1kg box could tell us which variety they are.

These were S.England, kent- they were very average at best. They certainly did not look like those massive ones in the box in that picture.

Ta very much

Sadly unavailable for me online.

Online Northern Ireland OK.

Still available online if you search "strawberries 1kg". Just ordered. :smile:

Wow!! Something from tesco that is a reputable price and healthy all at the same time (impressive) :laughing:

As if strawberries grow in Scotland!... Thought they needed some sunshine? :laughing:

Via Bathgate

Some of the best are grown over the road (A90) from http://www.hutton.ac.uk


Always stopped for pick your own in Tayside when on the road years ago

Good to see some healthy food being discounted.
Usually, all I see confectionery being offered up at discounted prices, so this is good.
Voted hot.

I do like me a Strawberary in the Liberry.

If you don't get this you haven't watched Scrubs :wink:

bought Iceland strawberries today - very very disappointing - weak, watery, totally flavourless. asda ones were far better. incidentally, English strawberries are considered worldwide to be the finest anywhere if grown in season and not forced. Don't think the weather this year has done any favours though

Amazon price match....?

had these last year. dubious quality - but good enough for jam making.
They will be this years 'first batch' from the plants I guess, so will likely lack depth in flavour

Just picked up mine from Leytonstone Tesco branch. They only had about 12 boxes hidden down the side aisle in total.

Sonata - Class 1

Seems like a lot of good deals are usually unavailable in London.....seems like companies think everyone in London is rich. There is seems to be an effort by government and big business to make life in London extra difficult for poor people in order to get them to move out so the rich can move in.

Not available in my store :disappointed:

Couldn't find in a medium sized store. More the cherries the other day!

Shame I wanted to make a chocolate caramel healthy dessert pizza with them

My local had both Elsanta and sonata varieties so bought Sonata hoping it would be better but how wrong I was. no sweet at all :disappointed:

My nearest Tesco (Hayes, West London) are also selling the totally tasteless "Elsanta" variety.

East Yonderton have great strawberries. Been going to pick them since i was a child and they are always sweet. The raspberries are divine as well.

Ones bought from the supermarket are only sweet if in season and there has been sunny weather for the past week or 2. Also depends on variety.

Right after the heatwave i bought some Sonata ones from M&S and mostly they are grown in Scotland for Scottish branches. To my surprise they were sweet as hell. A couple weeks later i bought more but the weather had gotten milder and i noticed they were not as sweet.

Bought them a couple of days ago from an express...great value and taste excellent!

Aldi Fenton were selling 460g punnets for £1.39 I think it was last week. Can't comment on the taste I'm afraid.

Costco have the driscolls on offer too @ £2.79

You know its summer when Tesco reduces their strawberries!
