As long as the weather is good, and you think naturally, you can pick up tasty treats at your local supermarket\u00a0for a delicious,\u00a0natural, healthy, filling and above all affordable picnic.<\/p>\n

The word \u201cpicnic\u201d has French origins\u00a0and the outdoor feast became a popular pastime in France after the Revolution. If you are a fan of Jane Austen, you will be aware that 19th-century picnics were huge social\u00a0ccasions.\u00a0The menus featured a wide range of pies and cold meats\u00a0that often took days to prepare.\u00a0 Also Fortnum and Mason one of\u00a0London’s finest\u00a0stores for food, claims to have invented\u00a0popular picnic standard, the Scotch egg,\u00a0in 1738. \u00a0<\/p>

With our busy lives we do not have time to spend prepping for picnics. A basic cheese sandwich was the\u00a0most popular picnic snack 50 years ago. Now, it\u2019s a bag of crisps.\u00a0 A\u00a0Tesco Meal Deal can provide millions with a\u00a0cheese sandwich, a bag of crisps and a drink for just \u00a33, but why not stretch beyond that very basic picnic?\u00a0<\/p>

Our\u00a0Zinda Foods<\/a> AirWrap range launched in Tesco with RRP from \u00a32.98 early in 2019.\u00a0\u00a0It’s\u00a0part of the Tesco meal deal,\u00a0so for just \u00a33 picnic shoppers can enjoy an AirWrap <\/a>plus a packet of naturally hand-cooked crisps\u00a0like Tyrrells and an energising smoothie drink such as innocent’s.\u00a0 There are also pots of fresh fruit, carrots and dips that you can swap out for crisps in the meal deal.<\/p>

Each Zinda AirWrap\u00a0packs<\/a> a punch for your picnic, with flavours that are simple yet complex. As each filling comes with a story sharing the inspiration and thought behind it. The age-old recipes and flavours that you may have enjoyed at traditional picnics eg\u00a0Greek Salads,\u00a0Chicken Caesar salads\u00a0have been lovingly adapted and recreated for modern life.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Anishya Kumar<\/a>, the founder of\u00a0& face behind Zinda Foods says, \u201cAll good picnics should have food that is delicious, natural, healthy, filling and most of all affordable!\u00a0
We often base our fillings on\u00a0traditional sandwich or picnic recipes and present\u00a0them in a healthier, wholesome and more delicious way<\/em>.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

The average person in the UK picnics at least three times a year, that\u2019s 94 million picnics per year.\u00a0 \u00a0“Our wraps are handcrafted with all natural ingredients, no preservatives & no palm oil with a texture thinner, lighter and softer than the traditional wraps found on UK supermarket shelves<\/em>“.\u00a0When\u00a0buying picnic food\u00a0from supermarkets, make the most of all the benefits you get from eating in the open air and taking in the sunlight. Enjoy\u00a0something that is natural and not processed.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
