Buy at your own risk
June 2, 2022

Great site if you want out of date, borderline dangerous food products and other, slightly reduced junk. Some of their stuff is *over a year out of date*. Not sure how this is even legal but products like protein powder will, at the very least, lose their efficacy after such a long time - at worst, they will cause illness. The Pre-Workout powder I bought was solid and discoloured and not at all appetising (and that was only a few months out-of-date, unlike a lot of the products on offer). See photo of the disgusting state it was in.

You may say "Caveat emptor", quite rightly. But I took the risk and am here to warn you about the consequences... YMMV. Some of the crisps and chocolates I bought were edible at least, though not at all tasty.

Can't help but feel they only exist due to Brexit. Am pretty sure EU rules would preclude selling such unpalatable junk

I have been going to review this company for some time now. Its all about cheap food and drink its here in abundance at this site. The M D buys in overstock and near to date and over date items they are then listed on the site at approvedfood.co.uk. I have been buying from them for over year now and have had no disappointments i don't buy a lot but the savings soon add up, I reckon i have saved over £800.00. I have not had reason to complain at all. I live locally to the company so can collect my goods personally but if you live miles away the carriage charges are not great. If you feel like some good cheap food and drink give them a try.

Avoid buying from them.

Just bought some items from them which never arrived.The item was recalled by the company and never get a refund, had to fill up a claim with paypal and talk to my bank to ask for a chargeback. AVOID.

Fast delivery came within 2 days of purchase. Excellent prices. Great offers. The only thing negative is the delivery fee of just over £5.
