Note to Tesco

[rhiannon_s]

Under no circumstances should a hard boiled egg need a list of ingredients. Or at least it should not require a list of ingredients more than one entry long (and for the sake of being specific, cause y'know Tesco, that ingredient should read "Egg").

Just had one of their pre-made egg and cress salads (yeah, I'm lazy there) and the sliced hard boiled egg apparently contained four ingredients. Only one of which was "egg". This seems not right to me.

I know I'd probably be happier if I didn't ask, but I can't help myself - what on earth were the other three?

One was salt, and the other two were some ridiculously long named chemicals for "color" (apparently an American chemical) and acidity regulation. Scary thing is, I only looked at the ingredient panel out of boredom idle curiosity to see what lettuce was in the salad (and I still don't know as all it said was "mixed salad leaves") apart from iceberg. It makes me wonder what else is packed with chemicals that looks like it would never need them.
