So we spent £150 on meals as we are trying to be healthy. But each meal is tiny…. The packaging is misleading as they're the same size as anywhere else but once the food is cooked, whats left is tiny. My mrs is 5 foot four and weighs 50kg. She would need a 2 person meal and a side to be full. I thought a £4 rice would give enough rice for a side, unfortunately not. You are guaranteed to need to spend £8 on rice to get a portion. What an absolute rip off. If you’re a 70+ year old their portion sizes might be sufficient but for anyone else I strongly recommend looking elsewhere for food…

The meals we tried, chicken satay and chilli con carne were tasty ( although not as good as M&S or Waitrose ) but portions were very small so just not filling. Also way overpriced considering rice had to be added. Overall just not value for money and wouldn't bother again.

I have bought your Tarrragon & Lemon Chicken many times and have always enjoyed it, however, the past couple of times have found it to be very salty spoiling the delicate flavour of the sauce.

Absolutely foul. Nothing tastes like it should. Way too many vegetables in everything. Overpriced and literally has no flavour whatsoever. I wouldn't even pay a quid for these. If you haven't already, don't bother. No where near worth the money. Bought for convenience, wish I'd never wasted my money.

Tried Cook nut roast, mouth burning, sweating, can’t taste anything but chilli. I do have an allergy, so should have checked I accept that, but as I am vegetarian and cooked thousands of nut roasts I have never felt the need to wreck it with chilli it didn’t occur to me it would have chilli in it. Why? Ruined a good nut roast

Bought the steak and ale pie which after two mouthfuls I descarded. The pastry was like thick cardboard, and the 4 pieces of meat was tough and the so called gravy was gluppy thick and had an odd taste. Complete waste of £5.00. I have bought other meals from Cook and found them to be of a good quality so don’t know what went wrong with this pie. Would I buy again, definitely no

Just had the salmon gratin for one (bought from garage btw, great placement) and was so impressed with the amount of fish, delicious creamy sauce and perfectly cooked potatoes. Delicious and so happy I can pick one up for an easy dinner at my local shop.

Looks like muck, my dog rejected the food after myself, Mrs and both kids did. Soo bad we threw the remaining meals away be ause we didn't want anyone else to have to endure tasting them. The absolute worst food we have ever purchased. Do not waste your money on this companies meals.

Tried Smoked haddock and bacon, with sweetcorn & broccoli, liked the combination of sweet & white potato chunks. However it needed 15 minutes extra cooking time as was still cold in the middle. Fish was a bit dry & very little bacon. For the price would have expected it to have a more luxurious taste. Has inspired me to try making it for myself

This was the first time I bought Cook products, very disappointed with the Sweet Potato Katsu Curry. No taste or flavour at all, I didn't expect it to be "hot and spicy" but all my family agreed it didn't taste of anything - at £8.50 I won't be using Cook again.

The Cottage Pie is far too salty! Spoilt it for me as the flavour was okay, then got the salt hit! Yuck!

Very salty. Mixed herbs in three different meals overwhelmed the taste. Meat chewy no flavour my dog food looks more appetising. Veg like leaks make flavoured sauce go runny. Beef burgeon tastes very odd leaves a metallic taste. I got because I had seriously I’ll and needed easy meals to help recovery. I ended up throwing them away after a couple of mouthfuls.

Have ordered 5 different meals , last night had the chicken and mushroom lasagna (for 2) It was dreadful, we had 5 pieces of rather tough chicken between us and not a mushroom in sight! It was awful, not to have a mushroom in a chicken and mushroom lasagna is unacceptable, not even evidence of mashed up one. Going to try the fish pie tonight I hope that’s good I really want it to be as it’s convenient as I live walking distance from the cook in the Cheltenham, just hoping this was a one off bad experience we’ll see.

The leek & peas veg dish was awful…the leeks long, stringy & only half cooked , so most of it went in the bin! The beef stroganoff was good Chicken Alexander was also good but too much cream & fat for a people on low fat diets, as have several of your dishes. The fish pie didn’t contain enough fish & too much potato

I bought the beef stroganoff as a special treat. With two small children there are times when we are too tired to cook. It’s also a challenge finding a dish that they may warm to - one we can buy and serve at tricky times. We usually cook from scratch so figured this may be a good option. Unfortunately it was not as good as I had hoped. But then what should I expect. It is a ready meal. The children would not touch it after tasting it unfortunately. It got better as I pressed on but it really was a disappointment on the whole. Some of the meat was chewy and the back flavour was a bit claggy. For the price of a meal for 4 it was a shame.
