I bought some brie at Tesco Lotus that is not fit to eat? I think it must have been frozen, thawed, refridgerator...etc. It was 450 baht, so I would really like to return it. Do you guys think they'll refund my money or am I wasting my time?

If you have your docket then take it back, I have done this and always had a refund or a replacement product.

I would have the manager take notice of that, without necessarily expecting any positive outcome.

I give any old Brie to my dog.  She really likes the outer skin of the stinky cheeses.  Tops must have got their new shipment in as the Brie I bought this weekend was wonderful.  Same brand but much better than 2 weeks ago. 

All Brie is not fit to eat, filthy, foreign French muck.

Eating cold pork pies and drinking warm beer is entirely different.

I drive a 100 km to buy proper brie at BigC (Casino brand).

And you live in Pattaya and buy brie at Tesco ??

Is BigC Extra too far for you?

 

Once made the mistake to buy some crap from Makro (Danish import). Could have been anything but brie.

Some rubber, tasteless, no smell.

I am debating which to buy.  It is delivered to my door 24 to 48 hours.

Brie De Meaux Tradition Briarde Boite

Brie Isigny

Brie Cantorel

 

Price is not an issue.

 

What do you think?

No, to BigC Khon Kaen.

BigC Extra on Klang is 560 km

(was there last week)

 

About your question: you can try to complain.

But be aware that 0.x% of Thai people know how a proper brie should be.

Maybe you could fry it in lard to make it more to your taste.

 

Brilliant stuff on salty Ritz crackers with some decent wine. The French one from Ex-Carrefour (Not Casino) is pretty good. 

Did not one try this new company FFF food for foreigners- they have a lot of decent cheese offers with free delivery I think. How do they deliver fresh cheese I wonder.

I used to really like Ritz crackers till they changed the recipe.  I wrote the company and they said someone would get back to me to explain but they never did.  I wrote 6 times.  I switched to Luxury vegetables crackers for my late night Brie.  I was trying to order some new Brie on line and ran into to so much trouble about the quantities and prices available were not the same as those on the website.  They told me it was difficult to update the website when a product was out of stock.  .  This is 2018 right?

410 baht returned without question and politely, even with 15% missing.

In a truckle?

 

(Yes, that pun smells as bad as the OP's Brie).

I tried the castello brie recently from makro. I asked the Mrs if she had tried it yet. She said I did not try it, I finished it.

Which one?

For crackers, try these. Make sure to get the Saltine (dark blue) pack, as the lighter blue 'standard' tastes like wet cardboard.
