Our Visit to Sainsburys

Today we went to Sainsburys Acocks Green. We were shown around the store by Liz and Julie.

We wanted to find out about where our food comes from and how can we find out. We looked at lots of fruit and vegetables. Liz showed us that some fruits have labels on and some have flags on to show which country they are from. Some foods are from the British Isles and some come from far away.

We found out about all the foods made from milk. Where are all these foods kept to keep them fresh?










We also visited the bakery and tasted some of the foods made in Sainsburys every day.
