Considerable decline in quality and sneaky portions weighing

Second time I ordered from Truebites, as first order was quite good. Typically what happens with these meat delivery companies is they always try to make a good impression at first and then decline in quality over time. Surprisingly this started happening as soon as the second order, which is quite concerning. Noticeable decline in quality and found bones in the mince. Also, worth mentioning that you pay for plastic at the same price as the meat, as they weigh their portions already inside the package - please verify yourselves as I did when my delivery arrived.

Hi Bruno, I'm sorry you seem to have had an issue with your delivery. I can assure you we certainly don't purposely aim for a decline in quality. That's just not the way we work here. We aim to give every product and order our best, as we really do care about what we do. We aren't even aware which products we're producing are for which customers when we're butchering, as we do all the items for each day together. Anyway, I apologise that you found some bone in your mince, we prepare the meat for mincing by hand and obviously aim to remove any bone/gristle etc, but appear to have missed some on this occasion. We're only a small team, and don't always get it right, so I'm sorry about that. In regards to the weight, we actually pack to an average weight rule (that's what the 'e' means on the label). This is because it's very difficult for us to hand cut and pack every item to the exact weight, so sometimes items maybe a touch heavy or a touch light within specific tolerances. We obviously aim to get it right every time, but we are only human. Having said that, we obviously will take your feedback on board and do our best to improve going forward. Thanks and take care, Matt

We ordered some rind on bacon

We ordered some rind on bacon. We were kept informed every step of the way. The bacon is lovely, fresh and so tasty. We chose picked it up on the right day and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. They even carried it to the car for us. Will definitely be using this company again
