Mum complains that alphabet letters won't spell sons name

Really? Do we complain about everything now?

Is this really news?

What a twat, just when you think nope nothing can shock me anymore some idiot turns up with this sort of crap!

Good grief what is the world coming to when a mother, in pursuit of educational excellence for her child, purchases a potato product (made from the finest ingredients known to man, no less) is thwarted in that, thwarted I say, by a huge and faceless conglomerate?

Wouldn't that company save a lot of money if they just made all "i" s and "o" s.

They would get away too if it want for heroes like this woman fighting for fairness.

Shes the Erin Brockovich for waffles and I support her.

I saw this earlier and thought she was a complete walloper 😂

After a recent similar thread I started following Angry People In Local Newspapers on FB. Comedy gold like this every single day.

I am on the naughty bench with those who spell profanities on their husbands' dinners.

Pccr deprived chiid

Just I and O would be ok if your child is named after a Greek cow.

They should do numbers instead. Just 1 and 0 would suffice.
Here are the ASCII codes so Logan would be:

01001100 01101111 01100111 01100001 01101110

HTH.

I remember my mum bought these for us once years ago. She spelt out my sisters name, then my name but just before we started eating them, she grabbed a couple of my alphabites as she needed them to spell out my youngest sisters name. She did give me loads of left over letters that weren't in anyones name, so I did forgive her.

Much better value for Montgomery though

Much better!

And yes Penguins!

Glad someone else understands

She could call him Clang. That would work.

Wow, just wow! Get a fucking grip woman!!

I thought the article was about some sort of plastic letter toy (which would have been more understandable), not just food.

How embarrassing that her photo is now gone public alongside this story. I can see you may feel a bit miffed at the time (in your own head), but you've got to be a bit thick to think that an alphabet food item will contain all/certain letters.

I'm going to empty out a tin of spaghetti alphabet letters and put them all in order to see if any are missing......then complain :-)

The fucking stupid cow. Is that all she's got to worry about.

There are little babies getting killed in Syria and she's chatting shit about potato shapes not containing the letters O and L. Some people will complain about anything to get their gob in the paper.
Shame on the paper who reported this none event.
I hope Tescos tell her where to go.

When I was a child I used to get really distressed at never being able to find my name on key rings in gift shops.
I'm going to sue the Gift Shops rights away.

My sister went through life never ever being able to get a pencil, ruler, keyring or badge with her (unusual) name printed on it. It left her deeply traumatused, and a sad, bitter woman...

Not it didn't. People don't half like to complain don't they? Sheesh.

So she reckons the person who invented them doesn't have children?

I reckon her head is going to explode when she realises she has to try and spell out her second child's name. Is she planning to buy them a bag each?

In her possible defence, its easy to contact companies on FB now so its worth a punt to get some freebies. She might have been doing that and not really thought about it being picked up by a national tabloid.
Because WHY THE HELL WOULD A NATIONAL TABLOID CARE?

Fill the spaces with carrot sticks?

All she had to do was adapt a V and a Q or buy some alphabetti spaghetti.

I'll bet she was after compensation and got a flaming in the national press instead.

are you saying there are loads of Qs but no Us? Now that is shocking!

Hmm, from the picture of the random bag I can see a couple of other names. Perhaps she should change his name every time they buy processed potato snacks so that he can always make 'his' name. Ryan or Ian or Ray perhaps?
Poor child. Having a Mum who gets that upset so easily must be exhausting!

😂

When I saw the title I imagined a mummy searching the bag for an umlaut or accent.
