Customer claims Tesco Christmas item is 'misleading' and not 'in the festive spirit'
Elena Popescu said the £5.50 Tesco Finest wrap looked larger on the pack, and the video has drawn more than 180,000 views.
- Elena Popescu, 34, bought a £5.50 Tesco Finest chicken and bacon wrap at a Tesco Express in Sevenoaks, claiming the packaging was 'misleading' because it contained only two 3-inch wrap halves instead of appearing as one larger portion.
- The packaging design includes a gap between the wrap halves to accommodate a gravy-mayonnaise dip pot, creating visual space that made the product appear larger than its actual contents.
- Popescu's social media video drew more than 180,000 views, with one reviewer commenting, 'This should be illegal, it's misleading,' while others described the portion as 'very small.'
- In response, Tesco stated the wrap matches other Finest range products and noted that 'space will be left between the wrap halves once the dip is removed,' offering full refunds for dissatisfied customers.
- Popescu recommended shoppers 'check the weight of the product' before purchase to avoid disappointment, as consumers debate whether festive branding justifies the smaller portion size in premium meal deals.
