watermeadiw a slow cooker and freezing the surplus suits me, it’s cheaper and no preservatives, less packaging waste too. I get concerned with even more ‘ready’ meals, the art of basic cooking from scratch will be lost.

Tesco will recycle pouches so long as they are rinsed out.

Hope it is- it saves tons and tons of plastics.

Some big supermarkets including Asda, Aldi and M&S have trialled them, but I don’t think they are implemented yet.

I thought this thread would be about refill pouches- that save tons of plastic.

Do any UK supermarket sell those for liquid wash, handwash, conditioner, bleach, etc, etc, as we have here in France.

I use the grain and lentil packs I have some for an evening meal with some protein and the rest for lunch next day, so quick and easy. I wish they were recyclable too.

The supermarket has a growing number of foods which come in pouches now, like cat food. I like the grain and lentil packs, there’s a great variety and these foods take a lot of cooking from scratch. For people living alone they mean you don’t need to cook a panful then eat the same meal three days running.
I just wish the pouches were recyclable.
