But that doesn’t belong there! A Lidl customer has lost her appetite at lunch – she complains with drastic but humorous words.
Munich – Lettuce is a natural product. In this respect, it is logical for consumers that there can sometimes be unwanted extras such as sand or earth. Occasionally it even happens that animal supplements smuggle themselves into the pack – such as the frog at Edeka once upon a time. A similar experience now had one Lidl-Customer who registers via Facebook to the discounter.
“Dear Lidl Germany team,” she writes, “I was just about to prepare a salad, thank God I saw this little buddy strolling around comfortably in my lunch.” This little buddy? The Lidl customer illustrates what she means with two photos. On which a snail crawls over the plastic. It does look cute to the eyes. In the mouth, however, it would have caused a real feeling of disgust.
“The apocalypse would certainly have broken out here”: Lidl customer chooses drastic words
The customer knows that too, and finds drastic words for it. “If I had only noticed it while chewing, the apocalypse would have broken out here…”, she writes and asks Lidl: “Next time, make a note of it ‘may contain traces of snails’.” Much of her complaint is in written in fluffy words, but the hashtag “#nichtnett” also shows that the Lidl customer is a bit stinky.
There was no reaction from Lidl in the first two days, but there was from other Facebook users. Not everyone takes the complaint seriously. “Meat side dish, more in it than expected” and “How cute,” they write. Another scoffed: “Girl it’s a natural product. It was probably not intentional – neither by the manufacturer, Lidl or anyone else. My goodness …”
Lidl customer finds snail – “I had a nice buffet too”
Others also think that something like this just happens. “There should definitely be more pesticides used to keep your lettuce clean,” says one wryly. And another writes: “I would worry if she were dead. That’s a sign of freshness.” The Lidl customer reacts to this with a funny comment: “No, she was totally happy and satisfied, she also had a nice buffet.” In the end, it was in the interests of humans and animals that the snail didn’t end up between the customer’s teeth. An Aldi customer recently showed his purchase and was shocked at the price. (lin)
