I’m a pro-chef & tested EVERY Tesco meal deal sandwich to find my favourite… the 2 winners divided opinion

A MEAL-DEAL loving chef has posted a TikTok rating all Tesco’s meal deal sandwiches – and her results are surprising.

After a trip to her local Tesco on Friday, August 2, TikTok food critic Becca Stock thought to buy 31 meal deals and test which packet sandwich tasted the best.

The 27-year-old’s viral TikTok shows her spending two hours taking two-three bites of every one to give them a score out of ten.

The Sausage, Egg and Bacon Triple, which Tesco revealed was its most popular sandwich in 2023, only finished 14th – with Becca claiming it had “gone downhill this year”.

The former chef ranked Pulled BBQ Beef at number one, saying the sandwich “melts in the mouth”.

In second place was The Chicken Club, which Becca praised for its “peppery taste” and amount of chicken.

The TikTok video caused a stir, with users saying that they “disagreed wholeheartedly” with most of Becca’s judgments.

Others debated her decision to rate the plain ham and plain chicken highly.

Others praised her “dedication” to food reviewing and felt “validated” when she praised their personal favourites.

The video has been viewed more than 2.1 million times on social media, but Becca was not surprised people loved it because meal deals are “unique to Britain” and “something we’ve grown up with”.

Becca, from Southampton, Hampshire, said: “We happened to be in Tesco and I thought it would be a great idea to compare them and see which one was best.

“People in my local Tesco know me so they weren’t surprised when they saw me, but we did the scan and shop option so everything was already in bags.

“The BBQ Pulled Pork was lovely and it was nice to have one or two stand-out products from the line up.

“With the Sausage, Egg and Bacon Triple I’d be quite surprised if it’s the favourite in 2024 because the only reason people will buy it is because it’s got three sandwiches instead of two.

“I could tell the sausage wasn’t as nice, there wasn’t as much tomato ketchup in it and that just brought down the quality of the sandwich.

“The reaction has been crazy because people have been agreeing with me and being very upset about where their favourite sandwich is placed.

“Ultimately it’s something we’ve all grown up with so people in Britain are interested in it and people from other countries say they have nothing like this.”

Becca’s scored the Tuna and Sweetcorn sandwich lowest, at a dreadful 1.5/10, In the video, she complains that the tuna was “vinegary and bitter”.

Becca says that she donated donated leftover snacks to a food bank and saved the leftover sandwiches to eat or give to pals.

Becca, who has 320,000 followers on her TikTok account @beccaeatseverything. This video alone has more than 4,000 comments and 140,000 likes on her video.

One commented: “I feel like these need to be re-reviewed by other people because I disagree wholeheartedly with most of this.”

A second said: “How do the PLAIN cheese and PLAIN ham score better than any of the chicken and bacon varieties.”

A third joked: “I can’t trust anyone who puts prawn mayo in the top 10.”

Some loved the review and said: “I feel so validated that my fave is number one.”

A second added: “£80 is madness. True dedication to be the best food reviewer!”
