Bad, bad Metro!

Although I enjoy cooking I tend to get a bit lazy when it comes to preparing lunches (who doesn't right?) Especially when it comes to making salads. Like many people I love eating salads for lucn but they take sooooo long to prepare, so I've gotten into a habit of buying a ready salad for lunch at a near by Metro store.

Today I fought hard against the urge to order Thai and stuck to my daily routine to buy salad. Once in the store though, I realised I did not want the regular greek salad that I usually get and decided to try something else. Metro usually does not have a variety of vegetarian salads so I was skeptical that I would find something. Every salad tends to have meat in it...even their spinach salad has bacon bits! (That should have been my warning!!) Looking through the "wall" of salads I came across their "Supreme salad" WOW...supreme...with no meat!. I could see lettuce, cukes, cherry tomatoes, yellow, orange, red and green peppers and walnuts. I was hooked. I double-checked the label. Nope...no meat!

Pleased with myself that I had stuck with routine, I headed back to work anticipating an enjoyable lunch. After a several bites I soon realised my mistake. I bit of digging into the mound of veggies, I unearthed a huge center of bacon bits!  I realised that a past prediction had come true.

Bad, bad Metro!! If you are going to include bacon bits please make them visible OR label your salads accordingly
