Coles have QUORN!
OK. So sorry if you already knew this. I found out about 3 weeks ago and keep meaning to tell you all... For some strange reason, Coles have a range of QUORN products on the online shopping. I've never seen them in the stores and they're all on offer at them moment - Hoping that's not because they've changed their mind!
I got so excited I bought 2 of everything - I can eat again! (slight exaggeration but hey
OK i'm off to cook a sausage roll for my lunch

Re: Coles have QUORN!
Yeah I'm with you
I've seen this Quorn talked about before. And picked some up in Waitrose the other day (we live in gentrified Surrey, I think Tescos have been banned
). I was a vegetarian for 15yrs (not any more) but I don't ever remember eating something as dry and rubbery as this. It has a horrible texture (at least to me) and is not exactly flavoursome. I tried the sausages and something that looked like an eraser after a steam roller incident. Both tasted yuk.
I didn't try the lasagna, decided to go back to my usual fillet of panda and swan steaks.

Our local Woolworths has just has a bit of a makeover and introduced self-service checkouts.
It was bedlam!

I prefer the normal checkouts though, those self service ones don't ask me how I am

Re: Coles have QUORN!
Wow so excited. I remember emailing quorn re stocking their products in Oz back in 2004 and they said they couldnt import it due to it being a fungus.
I love quorn products been a veggie.
I am off to try and place an order online now
