Tesco has been forced to apologise after confirming a "delicious retro product" has been discontinued from stores across the UK.
Major supermarkets, including Aldi and Sainsbury's, have already discontinued products in 2025.
Aldi has axed several products from its range this year, including:
- Very Berry Muesli
- Dairyfine Blonde chocolate bar
- Yeasty Flavour Snackrite Mighty Crisps
- Savour Bakes Water Biscuits
- Specially Selected Prawn Cocktail Crisps
Discontinued UK chocolates and sweets
Meanwhile, Sainsbury's has discontinued the likes of its mini sausage rolls, a range of eggs and two of its own-brand coffees - Mellow Roast Instant Coffee and Taste the Difference Indian Monsoon Malabar Ground Coffee.
Tesco discontinues "delicious retro product"
Tesco has also axed items from its range this year, including its British Whole Milk 3.408L (6 Pints).
The supermarket giant has now confirmed that Foresight Pease Pudding (410g) has also been discontinued across all UK stores.
One shopper took to X (formerly Twitter) recently to ask about the ready-cooked vegetable product, which is made up of rehydrated yellow split peas.
Hi. I'm so sorry, but yes, this is now discontinued in all stores. Liz

They posted: "@Tesco Are you discontinuing "Foresight Pease pudding 410g tins" in all stores or just some?
"It was in Tesco Bursledon Towers Southampton, discounted to clear (brought the lot!). Is it being discontinued by Princes?"
A Tesco spokesperson replied, saying: "Hi. I'm so sorry, but yes, this is now discontinued in all stores."
It appears Foresight Pease Pudding has also been discontinued by its makers, Princes, as it is no longer on the international food and drink group's website.
"Tasty and delicious" - shoppers rave about Foresight Pease Pudding
Foresight Pease Pudding had proved popular among shoppers with it boasting a 4.3 star rating on the Tesco website.
One person, reviewing the ready-cooked vegetable product, said: "Pretty authentic Pease Pudding - excellent with pork, ham etc, and also as a meat-free healthy staple, packed with protein. Highly recommended.
"It's been out of stock for a while now - please, Tesco, get some more in!"
Another added: "Just like home made. Delicious and highly nutritious."

While a third person, describing the Pease Pudding as a "delicous retro product", wrote: "Absolutely delicious! It's a bit like mashed potato with carrot; that's the nearest I can describe the flavour.
"I saw it in a chap's basket in the queue at the till about four years ago and I was intrigued by the retro look of it. He went and got me a tin.
"When I tried it I loved it. Now I'm shopping online so glad to see I can still buy it. I usually have it with home made roast potatoes, vegetables and a veggie burger. It's vegan too!"
