Found over at HUKD.

If you go to http://www.lookwhatwefound.co.uk/ and sign up with a secondary email address, then reccomend your main email address, they send you a £10 off voucher link. They also have a 40% off if you spend £40 offer, plus free shipping. This means you can spend £14 and get £40 worth of stuff delivered. Now I've never tried these, but have seen them in Sainsburys. Look ideal for hiking/camping and stuff like that, also good for throwing in a desk drawer at work for when you are a bit peckish. Most items work out a bit under a quid.

Bugger, looks not :(

I did place an order yesterday, but the server seemed to bomb out halfway through. I have an order number, but apparently don't have an account with the email address the order receipt came to?!?!

A quick run down of the ones I've actually tried. I'll be honest, I wouldn't pay full price for these. I'd say about £1.50, maybe £2 at a push for the more interesting ones. Not that it matters as you are paying a quid at most with the voucher. These are no good for a main meal unless you are on a diet, but I've been eating them all week for lunch at work and am quite enjoying them.


Chilli with rice
Quite tasty, very little rice though. Not too hot, and actually quite filling as a lunchtime snack. You actually get more in the pouch than the tray and its cheaper. 315 calories.

All day breakfast
You get beans with slices of mushrooms in, 2 smallish beef sausages and a few slices of potato. Tasty enough, not too filling but again a good sized work lunch. 268 calories.

Chicken tikka with rice
Quite creamy, not really to my taste but think thats more me than the product. Small pieces of chicken, very little rice again. Probably wont order this one again, but I like my curry more tomato based. 378 calories.

Rose veal stroganoff
Only tried a little of this one as the other half was eating it! A pouch this time rather than a tray, quite a few good sized bits of veal and the sauce was tasty. The mushrooms seems a little undercooked, but didn't bother me. Needed to be eaten with something really, be nice on a baked potato. 178 calories.

I still have the venison stew and mutton stew at home to try.

How long do they take in the microwave ? on average, this may be a good idea for me, doesn't seem unhealthy considering they're ready meals too, would stop me buying tons of junk at break at work (i work in a superamarket) so a lot of junk for me to be able to buy..

Could replace some meals at night if i didn't fancy doing much also!

Sounds good, sounds like something that would be great to buy in Bulk, well if you knew if you liked the things you order and could store it somewhere due to offer (if it's still on?)

Offer is still on, I ordered today and so did a colleague. I referred them, they followed the link and added £40.50 worth of stuff to their basket, total cost was £14.30ish delivered. Knowing what you want is the problem, I just ordered 2 each of all the tray ones so that I can easily eat them at work. If you want a referral link send me a PM.

Went for the mutton, its rather nice. Surprising amount of mutton TBH, thought it was all potato but the mutton was at the bottom. Pleasant taste, will def have this one again. A pouch this time so harder to eat at your desk, but I managed!

I've just realised that with the offer these are as cheap as a single item in a graze box, of which I have an untouched one sat on my desk since Wednesday. Time to cancel them I think.

Just tried the venison one, its got a lot of venison! If anything too much, needed some more veg with it, but was very tasty. Quite runny this one, harder to eat out of a pouch at my desk but I managed. This one is certainly on my list to order again.

Tek I have those graze boxes to, trouble is I can eat a whole 1 soon as it comes easily, so for that reason I cancelled too

I tried to add Staffordshire stuff for my order, just because of "staffordshire" haha

Got a lot of curry things on the way!

Mine seem to be mainly stew type ones this time, with a couple of the all day breakfast ones thrown in for good measure. My partners brother is an archaologist and these will be ideal for when he's on a dig, he's also on a diet so portion sizes are ideal.

Still not touched the graze box....

Finally last Fridays order has shipped, had to chase them for it but all good in the end. Unfortunately what is coming is not what I thought I ordered! Could have sworn I edited the basket after that, but was a bit busy at the time so guess not. Ah well, gives me an excuse to order a third lot I guess!

So far I think the mutton definately has the edge, but have a few left to try.

Has anyone had a delivery yet? If so, on the delivery note did you have an account number? Mine says 0001, which I find hard to believe!

Sausage casserole today, nice enough but I have a thing about anaemic looking sausages (so really shouldn't have ordered a casserole made of them!). Had 3 or 4 sausages in it, some veg and a tasty gravy. Not sure I'll order it again, but I will eat the other one I still have.

Also tried last week the beef in black velvet ale, very nice. Thats certainly on my list to re-order, but still not quite as good as the mutton stew.
