"@DrAseemMalhotra: Is this some sort of sick joke " Is this supposed to be a joke @Tesco? What are your thoughts? #doc


Whatever you do, don't tell Sid "everything in moderation" Bonkers. And do not mention the flogs gruesome diabetic hampers full of carbs they used to flog.

Yes, it's that time of year when Easter Eggs are piled high ..... and children pointing out which ones(s) they would like 'The Easter Rabbit' and friends to get for them.

But what an error from Tesco (or indeed any other business or person) to think up a hamper prize full of chocolates, when they are specifically trying to help diabetics.

There are so many other gift ideas that could be included - and if there has to be a bar of chocolate why not the 85% dark chocolate bar .... plus tea or coffee, bath-time goodies, etc.

Before any action you need to think of the reaction and clearly Tesco's and their management didn't .......

What would you have put in the prize gift hamper?

All the best Jan
