Real products.
A small, transparent catalogue.

Seven selected products, manually checked against public online listings on 21 September 2026. The optimiser finds the best combination within this selection, not every product sold by Tesco.

What “last verified” means

We reviewed each linked listing for the exact product, pack context, regular price, meal-deal category, nutrition and dietary information. This is an online check, not an in-store inspection or live stock feed. The chicken salad and egg & cress listings showed unavailable online; we retain them as clearly marked in-store comparison ideas because the offer is still listed. Check your local shelf before relying on a combination.

How we handle uncertainty

Nutrition is per whole pack or bottle. Unknown barcodes stay blank. Walkers is marked vegetarian; unconfirmed vegan suitability stays unknown and is excluded from vegan results. Diet Coke does not declare fibre: the table shows that gap and the score awards no fibre points for it. Fruit-pot salt is below 0.01g; we use 0.01g conservatively. Plain-water energy and macronutrients are zero by composition; its salt equivalent is calculated from the manufacturer’s sodium figure. Individual product notes explain each choice.

No caffeine means no declared caffeine-containing ingredients. Dietary filters do not replace allergen checks. Always read the actual pack.

Sources and scope

These are limited manual factual observations with source links. We do not scrape Tesco, bypass anti-bot systems, or copy product descriptions or retailer images. The homepage lunch illustration is original AI-generated artwork. No customer reviews or taste ratings are used.

The earlier Open Food Facts research is not imported into this release: conflicting or incomplete records were held back. Prices and deal eligibility are checked separately from nutrition.
