ini yang berlaku di London:
LONDON: Apabila seorang ibu dua anak menggigit sandwic ayam yang dicampur dengan bakon dan salad yang dibeli dari sebuah pasar raya Tesco, dia menelan sesuatu yang tidak dijangkanya.
Katie Crabtree terkejut mendapati binatang berbulu, seekor tikus, di dalam snek prabungkus yang dibelinya dari rangkaian pasaraya itu di Stockport.
Wanita berusia 31 tahun itu hanya ternampak ‘objek berbulu itu’ selepas memakan separuh daripadanya dengan menyangka ia bakon salai yang hangus.
“Saya menggigitnya dan melihat benda hitam di dalamnya. Saya menyangka ia bakon salai dan menelannya.
“Saya menggigitnya dan melihat benda hitam di dalamnya. Saya menyangka ia bakon salai dan menelannya.
“Kemudian saya melihat sesuatu yang buruk dalam sandwic itu. Ia berwarna hitam dan berbulu. Saya juga melihat kakinya. Ia sungguh dahsyat,” katanya.
Katie berkata, penemuan mengejutkannya itu membuatnya tidak selesa.
“Saya tidak boleh lagi makan sandwic bungkus kerana ia akan mengingatkan saya kepada peristiwa itu,” katanya.
Dia menuduh pasar raya berkenaan tidak menghiraukannya selepas mengadu hal itu kepada pasar raya terbabit dan ibu pejabatnya.
“Saya menghubungi pasar raya berkenaan dan ibu pejabatnya tetapi tidak ada orang yang tahu mengenai kejadian itu,” katanya.
“Mereka akhirnya memberi saya baucar �10 (RM50).
“Saya berpendapat mereka tidak mempedulikan saya. Mereka sepatutnya menyiasat kejadian dan membuat tindakan selanjutnya,” kata Katie.
Tesco menghantar wanita itu surat permohonan maaf dan berkata, ia akan menyiasat, di samping menawarkan pampasan sebanyak �10. - DM
Horrified mum finds 'furry creature' in Tesco sandwich
A horrified mum bit into a supermarket sandwich – and discovered she had eaten a chunk of a ‘hairy creature’ inside.
Katie Crabtree, 31, was shocked to discover what she believes was a small, dead rodent in her pre-packaged sandwich bought from Tesco at Portwood.
The Stockport mum-of-two tucked into the bacon and chicken meal and swallowed a chunk – only to then realise there was a ‘furry object’ inside the bread.
Katie, of Beauvale Road, Offerton, said: "I took a bite and saw this big black thing in it – but I thought it was just burned bacon and swallowed it. Then I saw there was something horrible in the sandwich.
"It was black and had hair – and I could see a little paw. It was horrendous.
"I felt so sick and now I can’t eat another packaged sandwich because I just think of that horrible thing."

Katie blasted the supermarket giant after following up her initial complaint with the store and head office.
Tesco sent an apology letter and said it would investigate, as well as offering her £10 compensation.
Katie added: "I chased it up a few times with the store and head office but nobody seemed to know what was happening. In the end they gave me a £10 voucher.
"I think they’ve fobbed me off. They need to find out what happened to this sandwich in case something needs to be done where it was made."
But the supermarket chain insisted they were urgently investigating the find.
A spokesman for Tesco said: "We take any case of this kind very seriously.
"Sadly, on this occasion, our food safety procedures didn’t work as they should have done.
"We have apologised to our customer and are urgently investigating the matter with our supplier."
