We first tried Milk & More Milk & More | Online Food Shopping | Food Shop Online (milkandmore.co.uk) in January and have bought organic eggs, butter, milk, Belgian yogurt, celeriac, veg boxes, peat-free compost and Spoilt Pig bacon.
The main image shows the first organic premium veg box which we received. The brand is Roots & Fruit, from Yeoh Saxton-Pizzie Ltd, trading as Wholegood. Wholegood is a BDA certified organic wholesaler, which supplies Ocado with Wholegood organic produce, for example. To learn more, click on Wholegood
Having experienced the quality of Wholegood produce before, we were keen to try a veg box. Milk & More customers seem to like the Roots & Fruit veg boxes, as it is sometimes difficult to secure one. £16.50 for 8 items is 2.06 each, which seems good value for money. For low carbers, the good news, is that we haven’t ever seen potatoes in the boxes or listed, in five months of using Milk & More.
This week’s box comprises: Carrots 500g, onions 700g, Batavia lettuce, cherry vine tomatoes, broccoli, rainbow chard, 2 Ramiro peppers, fennel.
The Milk & More organic pasteurised homogenised whole milk comes in 1 pint/568ml returnable glass bottles (currently 98p 05/05/22) or 2 pint plastic jugs (currently 1.95 05/05/22) Both sizes are 17p per 100ml.
