As I lifted the sheet away, there was still water above the surface. At least when I had used the Plenty sheet, it cleared the majority and only left the surface slightly damp. For double the price of most of the other kitchen rolls, I’m just not convinced it is worth it. I’d much rather buy Asda or Sainsbury’s kitchen roll than splash out.A second sheet was needed, which is of course fine as each other test needed a second sheet too, but this one came out quite wet. The Waitrose kitchen roll wasn’t particularly bad, it just wasn’t quite what you expect from Waitrose. This Sainsbury’s kitchen roll claimed to be ‘super-absorbent’ and to be fair to it, it wasn’t far off.

I pulled the sheet away and only a small amount of surface water remained, which I used the same sheet to mop up. I did have to use a second sheet, just to dry the stubborn water, but I didn’t think it worked all too differently to Plenty, although it was much cheaper. This is possibly the first supermarket comparison I’ve done where I’ve found two supermarket brands which are better than the expensive brand. Although Plenty kitchen roll is undoubtedly the strongest, it just doesn’t quite work the magic with absorbance. The M&S kitchen roll immediately felt stronger than the others I had used, thanks to being two-ply. It felt the most like the Plenty sheet than any others I had tried.

The Plenty kitchen roll is effective, there’s no denying that, but the marketing behind ‘one sheet does plenty’ is definitely a lie. The second sheet stayed relatively dry, but it was still needed to soak up the remaining water. I don’t add the maple syrup. It’s fine with it, but it’s just as good without. So for the sake of not adding unnecessary sugar, I skip it. I compared Hellmann’s mayonnaise to versions from Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Aldi and Lidl - one tasted identical
