Fruit and vegetable production was
already falling, the union said.]

[Asda is temporarily limiting the purchase
of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers,
lettuce, salad bags, broccoli,
cauliflower and raspberries to
three of each item per customer.]

A lot of working class people with young families probably do. Trying to shame people that shop at Asda isn’t very nice

Who buys 3 cucumbers at a time, or most of any other units of fruit and veg.
Hardly rationing.

Watch people who have never previously bought a tomato in their life suddenly panic-buying 50 of them.

Precisely :laugh:

Vanessa 23-02-2023 02:36 PM

I'll just buy what they have. I'm not fussy when it comes to fruit and veg.
If they don't have anything I'll get peaches in syrup and I already have frozen veg

The Lady trying to buy the 100 Cucumbers
in Lidl, runs a business making health drinks.

Metro Front page.

She was stopped by a Good Manager
and failed to buy her 100 Cucumbers.


She will have to halt her veg drinks
Could go under.
