Hi,
Please can you tell me why you no longer put the carbohydrates (per serving) on your sandwiches?
You offer a calorie value per pack/serving and a carb value per 100g, but as I diabetic who has to count the carb contents of what I eat along with many hundreds of thousands of other people to enable us to take the correct amount of insulin, please can you add the carbohydrate value per serving?
Not just to sandwiches but to all of your lunchtime / snack products such as salad etc.
I have really been struggling with this since eating your products and this can really affect people with diabetes and result in poor control which can go on to affect eyes and nerves, even resulting in blindness.
I’m afraid I, probably like many others will have to stop buying these products from Tesco if this information cannot be readily available.
I will also send a copy of this letter to the Food Standards Agency for their info and hopefully it may encourage them to change information that retailers provide on products in future.
Thanks in anticipation.
Yours faithfully
