Britons are furious at UK's supermarkets after some of them complained of receiving rotten turkeys on Christmas Day.
According to reports, many people have reported to have bought ready-to-eat turkeys on Christmas from the supermarkets only to find rotten turkeys inside.
Taking to Twitter, shoppers expressed their anger on Twitter as the supermarkets ruin their Christmas.
A Twitter user said that she bought a turkey less than five hours before from Sainsbury's, opened it to give an overnight soak, and found that the turkey was stinking. Another Twitter user said that she complained to Tesco that they would not be having turkey this Christmas as the one they bought from the store was so rotten that her husband had to throw up.
There has been a significant increase in the number of rotten turkeys delivered to customers by the stores. People shared pictures of the rotten turkeys on Twitter.
Reacting to claims, supermarket Tesco spokesperson said that the company is very sorry to hear about people's ordeals and is taking the necessary steps to address these issues. He further said that they know that turkey is an integral part of the festival for many of their customers, and the company takes great measures in selecting and preparing the turkeys. He further requested the customers to return the turkeys at the store so that the matter can be investigated.
A Sainsbury spokesperson also addressed the issue and said that they understand that many of their customers enjoy the turkey on Christmas, and the company is sorry for not meeting the expectations of a small number of customers. He said the company takes great care while selecting and preparing the turkey. He further said that the company is very sorry that some customers had to face the issue and requested the customers return the turkey to the store and claim the full refund.
