Bernard Matthews Reviews 

What have you done? A favourite of mine for over 35 years. I bought some today. Noted the packaging change, then the appearance change. The taste and texture are both awful…consistency of fish cake and tastes of mushy potato. No garlic flavour at all. Unbelievable bad. I’ll never buy them again.

They have completely ruined one of their favourite products, Mini Kievs taste absolutely disgusting now! The sauce doesn’t even taste of garlic anymore which is literally the reason people bought them in the first place🤣 I can only assume Bernard Matthews wants to go out of business if they are willing to completely drive away thousands of paying customers by making one of there most popular products completely inedible

Kiev balls were like a bushtucker trial! Should not be on the shelves masquerading as the original item we expect to be buying when theyre not! Pull from the shelves and dont put back til this abomination is back to the original recipe! Scam of a sale!

Absolutely devastated to see they have changed the recipe for the mini kievs with no warning. Thought the packaging had just had an update but the once loved family favourite for an easy tea was in the bin. Grey, tasteless mush. I knew something was wrong when the garlic sauce that usually comes pouring out of them was missing and the smell of them was non-existent. Total disappointment is an understatement.

What have you done to the mini kievs?! Used to love them - bought a pack lady week and thought just updated packaging. Nope, the actual mini Kiev recipe has been changed. Hardly any filling, stodgy and tasteless meat around it - even the breadcrumbs are more insipid and don't go crispy!
Please change them back, you have ruined them!

Son used to love these I bought some last week absolutely disgusting son refused to eat them I tired them tasted horrible no taste of garlic in them and pure mushy meat won’t be buying these again

I bought a bag each of mini kievs and drummers as my husband likes both and they’re good for a quick dinner. I hadn’t bought them for a really long time and will never be buying them again. They are now absolutely revolting . What have you done to them? Your company will be the next one to go into liquidation, mark my words. If there was a zero star rating then I would have given that as they don’t actually deserve 1 star

Turkey kevie balls terrible no sauce dry and taste less

The Mini Kiev's taste of nothing...seriously, if you don't believe me then try them. They must use the absolute lowest quality turkey possible to make these. I unfortunately bought a few bags but I can't stomach them so they are in the bin. I wouldn't even give them to other people. Honestly one of the worst recipe changes I've ever known. Do not buy these.

Bought Bernard Mathews Turkey Mini Kievs from Iceland store as I hadn’t seen them in Tesco for a couple of years, they were disgusting and no more like turkey meat than fly in the air, they used to be good with firm meat, I stupidly bought 3 packets of them but wil be binning them , minging.

You have absolutely ruined the Mini Kievs. I can't believe you are even managing to still sell any. I have switched to Farm Foods mini kievs now which are at least slightly similar to the taste and texture your product used to have.

These shouldn't be on sale they are disgusting...and what's worse, is they actually USED to be really nice. They've actively changed them to this rubbish.

I bought some Bernard Matthews Mini kievs from Morrisons thought I would have some for my tea, Very very disappointed no taste in them all the creamy middle is non existant. The suppose to be turkey meat was also tasteless I ate one and binned the rest of the bag what a waste of money.
I did message Bernard Matthews with my findings but no reply, Not surprised when I see how many other people are complaining about them.

New Turkey Kiev balls absolutely disgusting. Hadn't had these for ages and bought as a change as they used to he so nice. They have changed so much, absolutely disgusting, avoid!

I am complaining about the recipe of the mini keif recipe change. It is now tasteless the I side is not soft and creamy. The texture inside of the keif is thicker. I can't eat those now. I had previously been eating them for years.

The new recipe is vile, inedible. Such a disappointment.

I want to cry!! Bought a bag of mini turkey kievs for a bit of nostalgia as I hadn't had them in over a decade, they used to be my absolute favorite cheat meal, creamy garlicy yumminess!! What the hell happened, couldnt even smell them cooking, took one bite and 🤮instantly spat it out and the rest went in the bin!! Absolutely disgusting grey mushiness, no yummy garlic, just horrible balls of sadness. These things were inedible, tempted to call my lawyer for compensation due to the trauma!! Never buying anything bernard matthews again, this was a sad day 😔

Used to be nice but the newer version needs to be binned - DO NOT BUY THESE, a different factory is making them and they clearly have no quality control whatsoever, bland grey meat and a dry powdery filling. Cannot believe that BM is allowing this garbage to carry it's name - they are truly revolting.

Where do I begin ,such a huge disappointment .when I saw these in sainsbury I just knew I had to get them for my adult son as a nostalgic treat .they are not the same product as we remember from when he was a small child .they are now tasteless and no longer have the same texture and flavour. We will not waste our money again.

How the new mini kievs went out the door and passed any kind of quality control I have no idea. As others have said, I had to double check to see if I'd accidentally bought a plant based (with that rank fake cheese taste) product.
