Tesco's french bread sticks were 21 baht. then 25 baht, then 29 baht a couple of days ago, today now 31 baht. No longer worth it. When I did buy, would cut in half and stick in plastic bag, seemed ok to my taste.
But at 31 baht, they can keep them. Otherwise, the whole wheat was passable, and that small sesame is thick and makes good toast.

Its not hard to notice that the Baguettes at Tesco have undergone a severe downsizing.
They are now getting to be Hot dog buns rather than Baguettes.
Not worth making the trip for me anymore, as they have also cut ingredients, I think using cheaper flour, so they have lost any flavour they previously had.
Miserable Fluckers

Why don't they just add to the price instead of cutting the size?
If they added back 100gms of weight it would cost them around 3.5 Bt at the most. But no they have got to ruin a previously good product by cheap skating.

Roll on Carrefour :D

we bought one of these S&P "English bread" loaves from Tesco-Lotus the other day
would not say its the same as back home,
but better than the sweet rubbish they normally sell

Hard to get it into the toaster (better off not) but it makes a good sandwich.
