Re: Parkers Fish & Chips
Coincidentally, I just ordered two large frozen boxes of items from Parkers.
The Fish and Chips came frozen in a cardboard box. Following the instructions, they came out OK. Not exactly like in England, but closer than anything else I've had here, fresh or otherwise.
I did not like their bacon. I am very disappointed. They inject a lot of water and 'crap' in to them (almost 15% according to the label). The bacon has that horrible white slimy yuk that seeps out during cooking. Their sausage is OK, its actually all raw, whereas others are fully cooked.
I had always ordered bacon from RJ Balson and Son, but when they dropped some of my favorite banger recipes I decided to shop around. I found Parkers and stocked up on all kinds of stuff (including condiments). The quality is just not the same.
In a nutshell RJ Balson and Son is like M&S and Parkers is like Lidl.
Shipping took 4 days, yet was still perfectly frozen. They have some really good shipping freezer boxers.
