A Week On Morrisons M Savers DAY 1

[@icecranberry2148]

Grace narrating was great! It is also visible how much comfortable she is with the camera now as oppose to your old videos.

[@antster1983]

She’s probably used to it now.

[@karinahilton2330]

No the lion stamp doesn't have anything to do with the welfare of the chickens and whether they are battery farmed, its just means they come up to standard and are safe to eat. it states on the box they are from caged hens

[@georginalouise95]

Karina Hilton yes it basically confirms that the chickens that produce the eggs are vaccinated against salmonella and have not tested positive for salmonella in routine testing. So the eggs can be eaten raw or undercooked even by vulnerable groups

[@drunkenhobo8020]

Full-on battery cages have been illegal in the EU since 2012, so these ones are at least somewhat more humane. Bloody EU, telling us we can't keep our British hens in horrendously cramped conditions!

[@macmacox]

in the U.S.most eggs are battery eggs.. non-battery eggs are going to cost you $3.00 or more per dozen.

[@GreatSageSunWukong]

macmacox fuck America

[@nixie9]

Well, yes and no, they put into law the right to certain things but all those things can still occur in a tiny space. These are the rights and how they solve them. Potential to nest - one end of the enriched cage has a small nesting area Potential to roost - perches 3-4” high run along part of the cage Potential to scratch - a small scratch area is provided with friable matter Potential to stretch - the height and width of the cage allows for more freedom of movement

[@KatefilmNYC]

NIce to see Grace jump in during the oven crisis. Well done!

[@karatefella]

I love your "Week On"s, Mike. I have been getting withdrawal symptoms waiting for your new one !

[@BrenMcCullough]

If your value cereals taste stale, pop them in a medium oven for about 4-5 minutes then cool to room temperature before returning them to an airtight container (zip lock bag). Usually cost saving on packaging can be the culprit, not the product itself.

[@michellewinterbone7697]

Can't you count morrisons 'wonky' fruit and veg as part of the budget range? Usually very cheap :)

[@ThatLeeNoble]

@14:10 it actually says from caged hens on the box, Lion Quality does not mean not battery hens....

[@FateBoost]

What does it mean?

[@ThatLeeNoble]

@@FateBoost "The main marketing activity of the British Egg Information Service is the Lion Quality Mark scheme. This is a mark that can be stamped onto eggs by producers who are signed up to its Lion Quality Code of Practice" Basically means they have been vaccinated and have best before dates stamped on.

[@VegasMilgauss]

[@medicami]

Grilling cheese is stuff like halloumi, it's very tough so you can grill it without it being melting on you. Have it in a wrap or sandwich or stuff it down your gob, be sure to eat it hot though.

[@tonixo8798]

please do a week on Aldi!!! their products are so good and it's so cheap!!

[@steph8022]

I'm always distracted by the random Peter Rabbit board they use for preparing food

[@joannegray5138]

I regularly get my shopping delivered from Morrison's and one of their delivery drivers once told me that they don't put absolutely everything on their website. My cat prefers their cheapest cat litter to the more expensive woodchip variety that I used to get. But, he's a Geordie cat, so it's no use refining him, lol.

[@Sierraomega1991]

They also dont quite have there tags all fixed yet so you best to just search by product type

[@rebeccavillanueva8371]

When he said it was $67 I thought that’s a good amount for 2023 prices and then I saw that this was filmed four years ago

[@emilynorman6074]

I love these budget week ons! They're my favourite. Although it is distressing when the eggs are from battery hens and the egg box said 'caged hens' :(

[@Totallyrandomthatsme]

Freerange/organic eggs are barely any better so...

[@emilynorman6074]

Bethany I agree eating eggs is not the best, but surely if you're going to live a shitty life you'd rather live one out of a cage no bigger than yourself?

[@jborrego2406]

It all bullshit unless u have chicken also if u really cared u be vegan I don’t get ppl oh let them be happy but let kill them or eat the babies but now now let them run free b4 we kill them lol dumb

Emily Norman or don’t eat them an then ppl won’t have chicken An chickens well be in the wild also let get rid of meat section in the store just make ppl hunt for meat

I loved having Grace do a bit of the filming! She did a really great job.

[@bigtoe89]

"crack on with breakfast".. Good one, potentially unintended

[@Conc1601]

I work in Ms, and online shopping is picked from a warehouse and not picked in store like other supermarkets

Love part baked baguettes with sausages, fried onions.. yum yum !!

[@matthieumeewis]

Credit where it's due, Grace did an amazing job being on camera

[@KatKaleen]

Yes, grilling cheese is a thing, and it's delicious. Just be careful, it gets extremely hot and holds that temperature for quite a while. Well, at least the oven stopped working on its own this time, you didn't obliterate the door again. 😉 Grace has been given the perfect name, she is truly a grace. Buy her some flowers and chocolates, Mike!

[@SableRain]

Hey! It was nice to see Grace do a segment. I love mustard, so that sandwich looks tasty to me!

Yas so excited for this! A week on aldi would be kool! 🙋🏼‍♀️

[@KayHatesPeopleOfficial]

aldi is just normal food ??? 🙄

[@GemmaNicoleBliss]

not kayla Its cheaper in comparison to your every day market eg tesco asda.. They are there own brand. Dunno why your rolling your eyes😂 its just a suggestion and so many people are moving over to aldi to save money so it would be good to see if mike agrees with the swap. Have a great day babes

That's a fab idea!

[@Jimbobthon]

That wasn't a Morrisons Savers Oven. Surprisingly a lot of choice in the Morrisons savers range compared to places like Asda and Tesco

[@oliviagordon5692]

You should do a video showing all the saver stuff you've converted to using since trying them, rather than full price!

[@GreatSageSunWukong]

You could have counted their wonky vegs as M savers as the fresh vegetables

[@what_im_eatin_uk]

The Morrisons website is run in conjunction with Ocado (soon to be Amazon). It is not strictly like other supermarket websites as the agreement between the companies covers sales targets and a maximum number of products. Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury's all run their own websites so they can list what they want regardless of sales. Morrisons are moving to Amazon where the range offered is set to increase under the new deal with Amazon

[@Kieranlb05]

I've waited soooo long for this. I thought it would never come.

[@TCookHopItHolidays771]

sad to say it def said from caged hers, which means battery hens eggs . appalling that superstores still sell them.

"Not from battery hens" LITERALLY SAYS FROM CAGED HENS ON THE BOX

[@dancingdroid]

Do you think we wouldn't notice that Home Alone reference?

[@RachelDex]

Not all items are stocked in/come from the same warehouse, therefore aren't able to offer the full range online. It wouldn't be cost effective for them to have to travel to different warehouses to fulfil each persons specific order.

[@siversc]

What about their wonky range of fruit and veg, id class that as savers

[@depechem0demusic]

The British lion quality mark on the eggs is a food safety mark and nothing to do with battery or free range status-your not going to get 15 free range eggs for £1.20.Those eggs are definitely from caged hens

[@reckley]

There is no Tesco Value now, they've branded them as "Stockwell" and "Ms Molly" and probably other names that I don't know. A genius move as now you can buy them without the imagined stigma and soul destroying/this is nasty plain packaging. Good food at low prices. I don't work for Tesco btw, I just refuse to let them tell me what is finest.

[@dansharpe2364]

Morrison's don't deliver from a local store, it's from a central warehouse per region which is run by online only supermarket Ocado, It's the same delivery drivers, different vans

[@GreatSageSunWukong]

Dan Sharpe so technically speaking it could be a larger carbon footprint then going yourself?, i don't drive but my two nearest are half an hour and about 1 hours walk away

@Marie I order my shopping from Morrisons every week. I realised it was Ocado doing the delivery when I returned a call from a driver who was late and he answered "Ocado, can I help you?". I then asked a few drivers who confirmed that they delivered for both from the same central warehouse.

Great vid. nice to have another week on.. very odd that Morrisons list stuff all over their website and not put the Saver stuff under the Saver heading ? May be its a sales ploy to get you to buy the normal stuff ? May be you can do a week on Lidil or Poundland or Waitrose ?
