I have Kelloggs Bran Flakes for breakfast. Every few months, I find that Tesco's have no stock of them, and have filled the space they normally fill with their own brand.

Louise has observed that Tesco's no longer sell free-trade bananas - despite having signs up by the banana section encouraging people to buy free-trade bananas.
