Hi

Where is the cheapest place to buy Sweetcorn in the tin?
Not interested in the frozen stuff.


I see a lot about the Chefs larder 2kg tins but are they any cheaper than buying the cheap stuff from Tesco/Lidl/Aldi

I know you said your not interested in frozen stuff

but it has some big advantages over the tinned stuff for a start you can come up with your own flavoured corn very easy pineapple , garlic, and bloodworm are 3 that I have used in the past
and of course the price difference is about 4 or five times cheaper

for instance FARMFOODS
750g Farmfoods Sweetcorn 3 for £2 £1.33 per kg just split if up in potion sizes let it thaw a bit so its soft and tip your choice of flavour shake so its all coated and whack it in the freezer
just saying

Sweetcorn is successful because its, well sweetcorn. Not strawberry or vanilla or any other flavor you fancy pending what video youve been watching. And the frozen stuff isnt as good as tinned. and Ive bought a shed load from these guys. These are 3kg tins under £4 based in Shenstone near Lichfield.

It's the cooking process of tinned corn that makes it better than the frozen stuff. Nothing wrong with the frozen stuff as such, it's just not as good

Doesn't need a flavour... well that's a bit narrow minded... dare to be different..

We use so many additives in our baits I say let the fish eat something without them for a change.
