Another person said, “Looks like I’m guessing the cooking time of my @Tesco turkey today as their packs do not have exact weight or cooking time printed on front as normal,” after being perplexed by their bird.
Another consumer complained to Lidl that their medium turkey crown, which they had purchased for £17.17 on Friday at a nearby Lidl store, was “rancid.”
“Just a heads up as I’d hate for anyone to open theirs up Christmas morning and there be no shops open selling turkeys,” they claimed in their complaint over the turkey dated December 26.
My turkey was completely rancid inside when I went to wash and marinade it for Wednesday. The meat had gone green, and it smelt terrible!
“It was purchased brand-new at Lidl Woodhouse Lane on Friday, December 26th, and has been kept in the back of my refrigerator ever since, so there isn’t any reason why it should be off.
“And this year, I believe it would be better to buy fresh rather than frozen.” A spokesperson for Sainsbury’s stated:
“We are looking into these cases and are reaching out to a very small number of customers to express our regret that they received a turkey that didn’t live up to our usual high standards.”
