A reporter who tried the UK's most popular Tesco meal deal has described the experience as among the worst of her life, with the egg-based side dish prompting her to bin it after a single bite.
According to Tesco's latest figures, the most sought-after combination across the UK is the Chicken Club Sandwich, an Egg Protein Pot, and a Red Bull. The reporter ventured out to sample this supposedly beloved lunch, but was immediately put off by the appearance of the two hard-boiled eggs in a plastic pot.
Upon opening the packaging, she was hit by a sulphurous smell that she described as a 'war crime'. Despite the egg's yellow yolk looking pleasant, the taste and texture were so off-putting that she threw the eggs away after one mouthful.
The Chicken Club Sandwich, however, was a welcome relief, though she noted it contained six slices of bread and was ultimately defeated by a grainy piece of chicken. The Red Bull, while not a favourite, was described as 'ambrosia' for its ability to mask the lingering egg flavour.
The reporter concluded that the meal deal, though popular, left much to be desired, with the eggs being among the worst things she has ever eaten.
