You are fired !!
Is what I would say to Ben Wilson who is a Scottish West Coast Grower of mussels.
He describes his mussels as being renowned for “their plump Juicy meats”![]()
Well the bag of mussels I had purchased from my own fish counter at Tesco in Downham Market was far from being plump, in fact they were tiny.
I would have been embarrassed to serve them if I had cooked them for a dinner party.
I was so disappointed with them that I will be complaining to Tesco and hope to get a full refund.
Update… I got a full refund from Tesco today :-) shame that I will not be happy to buy them again ![]()

If you wamt fresh, fresh fish phone John Earle at Chapel Porth, St Agnes, Conrwall on 01872-553200 for the best crab, lobster, fish and shellfish. Perhaps he needs an order from Tesco!
