Imagine my dismay therefore on (with some difficulty) opening the PLPS to find no prawns. No, this cannot be I assured myself. They must be buried under the lettuce, pasta and so forth.
I dug and I dug but no. No prawns. In a rush for a quick lunch I batted on and after a few disappointing forkfuls I discovered a prawn. Singular. Maybe that was it - it was a PLPS, not at PsLPS. So delighted was I, I took a photograph of said prawn:
There he is - centre stage. His name is Edwin and he looks lonely don't you think?
I bottomed the plastic dish and have to admit that I discovered another 1 1/2 prawns (Ethel and Wil.) So that was it - 2 1/2 prawns.
I promise I polished off the lot and my prawn count was thorough. Pleased though to read that it contained responsibly sourced prawns.
For now I am blaming Brexit for this outrage but in fairness I shall give Mr Booth the opportunity to make amends. Watch this space.

I did what it said on Booths receipt and filled in a long questionnaire. Then, nothing. No acknowledgement. No thank-you. No 'we'll take it up with our supplier'. Just nothing.
So, we took the documentation to the Settle store and were refunded the purchase price.
Well Booths, the Co-op do these things better and cheaper y'know. There's more than one fish in the sea - and more than 2 1/2 prawns in a Co-op Prawn and Pasta Layered Salad.
Hello. I am sorry you had such an experience in 2018. I assure you that if you had brought it back today you would have had it refunded and replaced. I can also assure you their prawn layered pasta salad bowl...new to the meal to go lunch range is quite lovely. Have enjoyed two in the past few days. I didn't count the prawns but I was satisfied with the product and the prawns were nice and large. Hope you try again sometime and you are pleasantly satisfied.
