One man’s love for CARROTS has totally shut Tesco’s Twitter down

Jul 6, 2016

Supermarkets are used to having a million and one complaints made to their customer service everyday. You can't make everyone happy, right?

Well, Tesco made one man very upset this week because his bag of carrot batons didn't live up to expectations.

Aaron Swift considers himself quite the carrot connoisseur, so when he came home to a bag of unruly vegetables, he took to Twitter to share his disgust.

He started off by saying: "As some may know I am somewhat a carrot aficionado and it has to be said that these @Tesco batons are the WORST."

The supermarket chain quickly responded, asking him to point out exactly what the problem is… And his reply is simply brilliant.

@Aarondswift Hi Aaron, I'm really sorry you don't enjoy our carrots 🙁 Would you mind elaborating on the issue via DM? – Laura

Aaron posted a picture of the carrots lying on a piece of paper, writing the offence of each one underneath:

So @tesco asked me what was wrong with the carrots I just bought. I thought I'd take a representative cross sample. pic.twitter.com/7iQFIreJ4r

"Infested," "curly," and "hacked to bits," (my personal fave) were just some of the reasons why his carrots weren't up to scratch.

Tesco clearly had no comeback and offered the "carrot aficionado" a full refund.
