It used to be White and red.
This is Great you find all the cheap food ideal for staff. [Shoppers accuse Asda of 'embarrassing poorer families' with its new Just Essentials budget range as they claim bright yellow packaging acts like 'poverty markers' Shoppers claimed the bright packaging advertises their money struggles People on social media said the 'glowing yellow' screams 'we are poor' Asda said it didn't understand why shoppers would feel embarrassed Just Essentials has 50 per cent more products than the Smart Price value range] https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...packaging.html |

All hail the Moyesiah

The yellow brings to mind short dated reductions a bit but hard to see what the problem is, if it's standing out then I'd say the branding is quite effective
This does just have the impression of a 'news story' built on a couple of rogue tweets though |

Which is ironic because 99.9% of Mail readers wont be shopping in Asda anyway. Let alone buying their budget food range.

How do you know they are shoddy? Have you researched it? Or just assuming?

Are ready meals bad for you?
Did you know that in the UK, 2 in 5 adults eat ready meals every week? There are many reasons why you might opt for a ready meal over a home- cooked one. Perhaps you don’t have time to cook, or live on your own and don’t feel motivated. Maybe you don’t know how to cook or just don’t enjoy it. Whatever your reasons, ready meals aren’t always as nutritious as cooking a meal from scratch. This is because they don’t always provide your body with the nutrients it needs to stay healthy. Ready meals can be high in salt and fat and low in other nutrients. Eating foods high in calories may cause you to put on weight. And too much salt in your diet is linked to high blood pressure. So, if you eat foods high in salt and fat often, you may increase your risk of health problems like cardiovascular disease and diabetes. https://www.bupa.co.uk/newsroom/ourviews/ready-meals |
