We Tested Porridge From Tesco, Aldi and Lidl & 8 UK Supermarkets | Here's The Clear Winner
Porridge should be the one shelf in the supermarket nobody can interfere with. Oats and water. The cheapest, simplest breakfast in Britain, and one of the best things you can eat.
But walk down that aisle now and you are looking at bags, sachets, pots and protein tubs, all carrying the same word on the front, at prices that range from pennies a bowl to more than twenty pounds a kilo for what began as the same grain.
In this video, we investigate porridge from eleven UK supermarkets and ask one simple question: if it all starts as the same oat, what exactly is the extra money buying?
In this video, you'll discover:
The number on the back of a sachet that tells you how much of it is actually oats
Why the second ingredient on most flavoured porridge is not what you would hope
What happens to an oat when it is milled fine enough to cook in ninety seconds
The health claim on these packets that is genuinely earned, and rare on any shelf
The pack that quietly halved in size while the price went up
The one product in this aisle that beats every other on price, on sugar and on substance
Every claim in this video is based on current labels, supermarket listings, company information, public records, or named sources.
At UK Food Exposed, we investigate what British consumers are actually getting for their money, from supermarket shelves to restaurant chains and the heritage brands we grew up trusting. That means giving credit where a product earns it, as well as pointing at what is going wrong.
