Introduction

This is the supermarket value food blog.  My name is John, and I'm a single guy living in a tiny flat, on a limited wage.  I take the cheapest budget ready meals and reduced food items I can find, and pimp them up, to see what'll happen, and to see whether you can eat healthily, cheaply, and above all, tastily, by buying them and altering them.

The purpose of the Value Food blog is not to try and turn a sow’s ear into a silk purse.  But, with the use a little bit of creativity you can turn a sow’s ear into a star-anised deep fried crispy thing of joy – spicing up what we've got for as little money as possible.

I'll aim to post once every two weeks.
