Here I am in Kent on holiday for 10 days. Decided to treat myself to some supposedly upmarket salad stuff. Bought a pack of Santini tomatoes and an "essential cucumber". The Santinis looked just fabulous but turned out to be the most bland taste I have experienced for this kind of tomato. Even a shake of salt had little effect on the bland flavour. Now for the cucumber. It had an most amazingly tough and leathery skin and the inside was very seedy, pithy and soft. So lacking in any real fresh flavour associated with good cucumbers. Tomatoes from Morocco ref 8639D and cucumber English supplier 279ACH. In future I will stick to my usual source (Lidl and Aldi), pay much less and experience far better quality and avoid M & S in the future.
