A DAD was left fuming after he found blue plastic in naan bread he bought from Tesco and was planning to feed his son.
Construction worker Sean, 33, says he shudders to think what would have happened if his six-year-old lad had eaten the food he purchased from the retail giant’s store in Glasgow.
The angry dad told how he was about to feed his son the naan bread when he noticed “some blue” on the food which was dated February 16.
At first he thought it was just mouldy – but upon realising that other pieces of bread were fine, he ripped open the snack to make his horrifying discovery.
Speaking to The Scottish Sun, he said: “I thought it was mould so I checked the rest and they were fine.
“I looked at the first one again and it was pretty weird – it was definitely not mould.
“I pulled it apart to double check and it was like cardboard or plastic, it was a weird consistency.
“I never let my son see it as he would have got scared, so I sent him to his room.
Anything could have happened if my son had eaten it.”
Sean hit out at Tesco for the plastic bread which could have put his son in danger.
He said: “I’m hoping to get an apology from them and something else, because it’s not right.
“Someone could have choked.”
A Tesco spokesperson said: “We were sorry to hear about this. We have very high standards for the food we put on our shelves and strict checks in place.
“If the customer returns the product to his local store, we can investigate further with our suppliers and we’ll of course be happy to offer him a refund and a gesture of goodwill.”
