DANGEROUS Yeo Valley yogurt pots

533 replies

Albie20 · 08/01/2016 12:05

Hello everyone. Firstly let me introduce myself. My name is Denise, and I am a grandmother of three. I have registered with the site today, to warn parents of the hidden dangers of Yeo Valley yogurt pots. I use the word hidden, as after having contacted them about a serious cut to my grandsons tongue at Xmas, they wrote back and said they was aware of the situation with the sharp pots, but still have no intention of putting a warning on the packages. They then had the audacity to send me £2 in vouchers as a way of an apology! My 3 year old grandson simply licked the pot like children do. The problem is the extremely sharp plastic that's there once the pots are separated. This is clearly a case of putting profits before the welfare of their customers. SHAME ON YOU YEO VALLEY!

One of my greatest pleasures in life is licking the lid of a Longley Farm Hazelnut Yoghurt.

Please tell me I can still do that.

I don't think they've made losely farm for donkeys years. I used to love the stuff. I heard they sold the herd.

It's only 12 pages if you have 25 posts per page.

It could be less pages for some, maybe 6 pages? Is that less sad?

Longley Farm. Holmfirth.

Only 1 continuous page for me *AssKicker

jorahmormont · 08/01/2016 15:15

Try it on "Show all messages" - it's only one page then if that makes you feel better?

originalmavis · 08/01/2016 15:16

Longley not Losely? They deffo stopped making Losely farm yoghurt.

ExitPursuedByABear · 08/01/2016 15:18

Just google Losely and they claim to still make yoghurts

I believe they recently started production again. I've not seen it in the shops. It's different cows though, innit, so won't taste the same.

Exit, you are making me pine for oop north. Haven't been able to lay hands on longley farm yoghurt since I moved darn sarf. Lovely stuff.

But its so dangerous to eat yoghurt these days. I don't think my insurance will cover it.

Asskicker · 08/01/2016 15:23

She was licking
The opened tin
For hours and hours
Without realising
That she was drinking
Her own blood.

Sorry, I just thought of this poem when I read this. Am Hmm.

This thread made me scroll down the page using my nose and the other passengers on the bus looked at me funny. I think I shall complain to MNHQ for hurt feelings.

Sad Jam

lincolnshirelassy · 08/01/2016 15:43

I'm at home with a really painful bad back today. This thread has cheered me up greatly.

However that's not the point of my post. I trapped a nerve reaching for the shampoo- so who do I seek compensation from? Is it:
a) B&Q for fitting the toiletries shelf in a position likely to cause back injury
b) L'Oréal fir not printing a warning on the shampoo bottle that reaching for the shampoo may cause back injury
Or
c) my hairdresser for cutting my hair into a style which requires washing and styling every day?

I am so confused.

"Hazelnut Yoghurt"

Doesn't that give you botulism? Far too risky IMO. You can't be too careful.

ZingDramaQueenOfSheeba · 08/01/2016 15:47

Never mind botulism!
