Asda horrifies shoppers with controversial 40p recipe suggestion

With the UK still in lockdown, supermarket shoppers are looking for new and exciting recipes to try at home.

But Asda just came up with a recipe suggestion that's proven a step too far for some shoppers.

Posting on Instagram, the supermarket giant shared a recipe for a sweet'n'sour chicken stir fry. Sounds pretty simple.

But people were left pretty disgusted after Asda suggested adding an unlikely 'secret' ingredient - Fanta.

"No, Just no," said one shopper.

Another wrote: "Bleugh!! No thanks."

"What the hell," said another unhappy customer.

A fourth exclaimed: "That looks like I dont want to eat it!"

But not all of Asda's recipe suggestions have been met with such disgust.

Last week the supermarket went viral thanks to its own take on a viral Tik Tok trend.

To follow the technique you simply cut down the middle of a tortilla wrap until the halfway point to make a split, which will allow you to fold it.

You then add the wrap filling of your choice to each quarter, before folding the sections into each other to create a triangle pocket to then grill.

Asda shared its own version of the recipe on Instagram using its white tortilla wraps, which currently cost 89p for a pack.

Asda's recipe post has been a huge hit with shoppers, and has been liked over 6,000 times.
