Maybe due to the heat, if when opened it was poked about for five minutes or so ?

![]() In that heat it would be a tin of slop As for quality Fray bentos is obviously good but I find sainsbury own brand just as good........sometimes you see a brand you've never heard of, usually in a yellow and red tin with funny writing on it...............I don't buy those !...............

I always keep my tins in the fridge.........if it's at room temperature you can't slice it, it's too mushy

I'm assuming Waitrose does a good one too - but I'm certain their tins are around £5 a tin! |

Yes, I like Sainsbury's as well. That's made me peckish now. Off to get a sandwich.

I'm back on the diet tomorrow. Bought a load of salad earlier. My last fling...a corned beef sandwich in honour of IACGMOH.
Any excuse works for me !

Have you noticed how bloody expensive corned beef is as well? Bloody hell! You could have knocked me down with a feather! A small tin of the best corned beef is minimum £2!!!!!!
BTW - I agree - the Sainsbury's home brand is very, very nice! I'm assuming Waitrose does a good one too - but I'm certain their tins are around £5 a tin! ![]() Thye dont sell tinned hotdogs or fraybentos pies either. No demand apparently

True! We usually put our corned beef in the fridge for a few hours before opening.

Frigging reverse snobbery is all it is. Corned Beef (the good stuff) is one of the most expensive 'common' commodities these days!

I used to make corned beef hash but these days i tend to have my corned beef on butties for lunch
with mustard or pickled onions, pickled gherkins, chilli sauce, piccilili is good. One thing i do buy occasionally for a quick microwave lunch is Tesco's cheap range version of corned beef hash which is like a cottage pie but with corned beef on the bottom covered by mash potato................it's only 80p or something like that, have it with a tin of peas It's nothing like what I know as corned beef hash...........which we always called potato hash............but it's not bad for a quickie hot meal.............. |

I am now wondering though what fab means by this... I don't want to know, do I?
![]() I always check ingredients on everything now. I used to love ham sausage boiling rings - lovely flavour but when I saw they contained 'mechanically retrieved meat' I was & pukey smiley.

I've had corned beef before and it's lovely. I also love baked beans as well. I'd have either.
