Sugar snaps Zambia Waitrose...found this...

[Apolloboy]

Waitrose reaction...! put it in another plastic bag seal it up & throw away!
Well for one... ANOTHER plastic bag!!! Makes a mockery of their ... let’s look after the Environment!
And advocating killing something!
Teenagers look aghast... & vowing to not eat anything from there again !

Basic biosecurity.

It's a bit rich of you to throw your eyes up at Waitrose use of plastic when you're buying produce that's been brought in from Zambia.

it looks like a box tree moth caterpillar anyway. No biggy.

Has your google finger died? Box tree moths came into the UK less than 10 years ago , are already nationwide and have destroyed hundress of thousands of box plants.

Fortunately box isn't a food crop.

Return it to Waitrose and get double your money back. Job done.

Yes I did think if you found that caterpillar the chances were that it was already in the UK.

OP is this serious? Anyone buying peas from Zambia is really not concerned about the environment. Why the mock horror? Why even inform Waitrose - just deal with it!

hahaha...

oh you're serious???

UPDATE...Well...aghast looking environment worried teenagers have been evicted & caterpillar is now moved into its own humidity Zambian environment bug home & Waitrose has given me £1000 towards bugs living expenses.

As if...

I thought you meant Zambia had a branch of Waitrose now

Teach your teenagers that sometimes, little green animals hang out on green leaves. Boy are they in a a harsh lesson when real life comes around! 🤦🏻‍♀️

I saw somewhere selling asparagus from Peru earlier in the year, in a part of Norfolk that has asparagus by the ton at that time of the year! Must be bought by the fools who drive by the farm selling lovely eggs at £1.50 a dozen on their way to buy eggs at the supermarket for twice the price!

Call the police
