  • Out Rage At Asda Broccoli’s Added Extras

    One mum has taken to Facebook to warn other mums about Asda broccoli.

    The mum sais “I just bought a broccoli from Asda and it had 3 caterpillars and 2 sacks of eggs on it and luckily we had cut and eaten the only parts with them on therefore noticing them. If we hadn’t then we’d have eaten the rest of it before discovering them.

    Called Asda and they said that they’ve received a high amount of calls about it over the past few weeks and offered me my 50p back 😂 I’m not bothered about the money back I just want to know why on Earth they’re still selling broccoli knowing that they’re infested in caterpillars as she said as of yet they haven’t investigated it.

    So I guess this is a warning to check your Asda broccoli before you buy them lol

    I did wash the broccoli before I used it but the caterpillars were wrapped tightly around it”.

    Many people commented laughing at the complaint one woman said “oh my god bugs on a vegetables that grows in dirt how outrageous, ban vegetables NOW lol”

    Only a few people were sympathetic with the poster most just mocked her.

    Would you be upset/concerned if you found caterpillars dished up with your veg? Let us know in the comments.

  • Dear Asda, I Purchased Some Of Your Smart Price Toilet Paper

    Dear Asda,

    Last week I purchased some of your “smart price” toilet tissue and I have some thoughts to share with you.

    For my first use I folded it twice like I normally would, but it was so weak it broke, at which point I realised I had fingered myself. That’s right. No romance, no weekend in Venice, just one swift digit up the wrong ‘un in a cold bathroom in Wythenshaw.

    So what exactly is “smart” about “smart price”? My eyes certainly smarted a bit as I jabbed at my rectum. I spent the next few minutes in the saddest bathroom scene since Oscar Pistorius, debating whether to sacrifice a bath towel, a sock or the fleece of the first staff member I find at my local store.

    A few more minutes passed, the anger subsided and I made a second attempt. You see this stuff might be half the price of branded stuff, but I found I needed to bandage it tightly 7-8 times around my hand to prevent me from molesting myself a second time, leaving me looking like an Egyptian mummy that’s just performed a prostate exam.

    The feeling of shame was soon replaced with regret, as I realised I had better things within arms reach to do the job. Even the pumice stone on the edge of my bath looked like it could do a better job than the stuff you supply.

    I noticed in the news today your sales have dropped 7.5% in 3 months. Looks like it’s not just the competition you can’t wipe out!

    Yours truly,

    A very unhappy customer

  • Little Angels Strike Again 

    Only last month we ran a story on Mums advice in regards to “little angel nappies”. 


    Well it appears Asda didn’t fix the issue and anther innocent baby has received chemical burns.


    Sarah Rose took to Facebook and said 

    This is what I woke up to this morning! I just want other parents to be aware, the nappy has now been sent for testing because it is thought Ava has had a chemical reaction to this batch of nappies and the nappies are contaminated. One batch of Asda nappies have apparently been recalled and I am waiting to hear back from Asda.
