To think this is a rubbish supermarket substitution?

LIGHTHEARTED ish

Instead of two 500g jars of sausage casserole sauce - I'm getting one packet of Colman's sausage casserole mix

We got oregano instead of ground coriander! No difference really and we would probably have kept the oregano if there wasn't already one in the same box!

I've cancelled the option to substitute on most of my order now. My favourite was when they sent me two 50cl bottles of Amaretto instead of one 70cl.

Love the outrage for jars of sauce, How can anyone not know they are sold? Do you walk round the supermarket with your eyes closed?

Nothing wrong with a jar, I can cook, I am a good cook, I do cook but sometimes when you can’t be boethered a jar is what you need.

OP yes you’d expect 2 sachets

Oh..for a friend I mean...asking for a friend

Am now off to add jars of sausage casserole sauce to my next shop...

38 weeks Pregnant with my first child. First, last and only time I have ever used supermarket delivery services.
I had an out of control craving for Hawaiian pizza - lots of ham and pineapple. So I ordered a pineapple pizza and some extra ham and extra tinned pineapple.
What showed up? A box of tropical soleros, a French baguette and some corned beef....gutted isn’t the word.

Sausage casserole was my nightmare school dinner.

It was a slightly orange liquid with fatty orange specks on top with mini chipolatas in it. We used call "boil willy casserole" .

2 of my dc like cowboy casserole which is cut up browned sausages in tinned baked beans topped with cheesy mash.

mostly my subs are fine. but I get really cross if I have ordered 5 main meal item, eg 5 pies (shock horror, shop bought pies.) and they send 4.

Which person is going to sit and look at the rest of us eating our pies??

My favourite sub was from a mn and she had kiwi shoes polish instead of kiwis!

What showed up? A box of tropical soleros, a French baguette and some corned beef....gutted isn’t the word.

Ah, love this! But I feel your pain .

Food poisoning!

Nothing to do with the sausages not being browned (although flabby pale sausages are grim), it’s to do with the fact that cooking frozen meat in a slow cooker is possibly THE quickest way to food poisoning there is.

Been doing it for half a decade with no issues!

ASDA arrived, I got my sachet and, wait for it..... ONE jar of sauce!

I had a pack of tena lady instead of verruca gel once...

Yum! Going to buy a jar of sausage casserole for Dd and my tea tomorrow

I once ordered a tin opener and got a tin of tomato soup, but it was the one without the ring pull on it so I couldn't open it due to lack of tin opener

Surely that was an elaborate situationist prank, Break

Re my shock at the jar - it's not pearl clutching, there's nothing wrong with the occasional jar, but isn't a casserole sauce basically just onions, tomatoes, stock and herbs? I didn't realise casserole sauce was a thing in general.

Packet sauces, however, wholly unacceptable

drspouse you really made me laugh! I usually get ocado which is mostly automated. Apart from when the robots go on fire . You've made me glad I keep to my old habit of ordering fairly early in the morning. I do that to give max chance of stuff being in stock but I can really relate to being so befuddled by the end of the day that a lemon is a decent substitution for lemongrass.

I'm still giggling about my christmas vegbox substitution, I got mistletoe instead of cranberries.

Cooking frozen meat in a slow and saying they have been fine for a decade, is like not using a car seat or seatbelt for your child because you were fine as a child in the 80’s and nothing happened.
It’s a stupid thing to do and pretty selfish if you serve it to others .

it's not like it's regularly from frozen, only if I forget to take it out of the freezer the night before. And I live alone, if I cook for other people I wouldn't make it from frozen!

nicky you will get more relevant replies if you start your own thread (link at top of page).

*slow cooker , fair enough if it’s just for you but honestly it doesn’t get hot enough to be safe. You have been lucky, I have had food poisoning I would not wish it on my worst enemy, worst than noro and stomach pains worse than childbirth.

I only ordered from Asda once. They tried to substitute quorn nuggets for real ones?

@MyDcAreMarvel

I'll remember that, thankyou

I want a sausage casserole pouts
