A customer from Munich was amazed when she put her purchases on the shelf at home.
The supermarket chain responds to the angry complaint.
Munich - The pandemic breaks out.
The first wave comes and finally the second wave ... Christmas in lockdown ... Meanwhile, an article from Munich spends two years on the Rewe shelf.
The product is probably even longer in the discounter: a holdover from long forgotten times.
When a woman from Munich hurriedly packed the product into her shopping basket, she had no inkling of this.
The greater the surprise at home when you look at the label.
“You buy something in a hurry at @REWE_Supermarkt and buy a product that is obviously a bit of a slow seller,” the customer reports angrily on Twitter and shows the best before

“Yes, I know it means 'at least best before', but it's been a long time.” It was an Asian organic product, definitely something that doesn't last very long.
They don't see buying an expensive organic product for full price when it has expired over a year and a half.
You buy something in a hurry at @REWE_Supermarkt and buy a product that is obviously quite a slow seller.
Yes, I know, it means "at least durable", but that's a long time ago.

Almost an ancient discovery on the Rewe shelf: "I'm considering whether I should get it to 'Bares für Rares'.
Other Twitter users agree with the angry Rewe customer: “Wow, I hope you take receipts with you, unlike me, the date is embarrassing for the employees.” Another gentleman jokes that “Well, at least everyone is in question coming germs died of old age and it is guaranteed corona-free.
It’s something! ”The Munich resident concerned doesn’t seem to have completely lost her sense of humor and answers:“ I’m thinking about making it to “Bares for Rares”.
Finally, the discounter also speaks up and apologizes to the disappointed customer.
Of course, something like this does not meet the requirements for quality and freshness: “We are very sorry that the product expired two years ago.
... Please contact the market directly to clarify the matter so that a solution can be found. "
How much the Munich resident's “Rewe antique” is worth remains unclear.
