Apples are not bananas!

AuTriker

Tesco have substituted my bananas with apples! I eat a banana every day, but apples are nothing like bananas, they are crunchy not soft and I can't bite them so would have to use a knife which hurts my arthritis. While I could maybe have an apple instead on one day, I don't know what to do with 12 apples.

I assume they had no bananas not even organic ones. They do seem to have some supply issues, which is a problem. Maybe I shall have to add a comment about if they have to sub to pick a soft fruit.

Annoying!

At least they now have lebkuchen which are my fave treat and I wish they had all year not just at Christmas.

  • Good news - I got my bananas!!

    I was super surprised when husband got back from click and collecting and was unpacking, to see bananas. He had just mentioned my disappointment to the guy handing it over (I guess they usually chat) and he was kind enough to go into the store and switch the apples for bananas! They must have had a delivery since our order was packed. (I don't want husband going into the store for covid risk reasons.)

    So impressed about an employee going above and beyond like that, so nice of him. Also nice of husband to mention it as he is very non-confrontational with other people so i was surprised he had mentioned it at all, even when the guy asked how he was.
