Infected beef from Lidle ?!
God knows where Lidle are sourcing their meat from these day? Where is the beef from and why is it such an awful PURPLE colour. Have they done a deal with that weirdo Bill Gates and bought a licence to inject more chemicals. It looks at it tastes: absolutely disgusting. One bite and I spit out. British farmers are driven out of existance and on our shelves is weird foreign crap. Be like me now and do not buy meat and dairy products from super markets.
Quality of food is beyond poor
Vacuum packed mince beef
Vacuum packed mince beef. OMG it was like slop. Just disintegrated into the water. I will definitely not be buying it again. Disgusting and should be taken off. I want to give it minus stars.

Lidl 5% 750g beef mince in vacuum pack
Lidl 5% 750g beef mince in vacuum pack. Used this tonight and it is an absolutely disgusting texture. Turned to mush, wouldn't feed it to my dogs.
I will not be buying it again.

Vacuum Packed Minced Beef
The recently introduced vacuum packaging for beef mince has compromised the quality of the meat. Not only is it difficult to brown properly, the texture of the finished dish is unappealing. None of my family will eat it ( they all binned the meal ). I returned the unused pack to the store.
Your meats were why I visited the store, I have little reason to return.

Worst decision ever lidl
Worst decision ever lidl. Did you not see Sainsbury's customers were dissatisfied with this packaging a few years ago and you still went ahead and changed it. Wrote to customer services and they explained about savings they are trying to make regards plastic. I get that. Inside the packet though it says not to recycle at home. So where do we recycle this???

Dreaded Vacuum packed mince
The dreaded vacuum pack mince has arrived at Lidl. This has got to be the worst packaging for Mince Meat as it compromises the texture of the meat. Sainsbury’s started to use this system and it’s just useless to cook with. Never mind, Morrisons are still using the older style packaging where the mince isn’t compressed into a large beef burger.
