An Edeka customer discovered mold on the sausage after buying a hot dog – but her subsequent complaint on Facebook caused a lack of understanding among users.

Munich - Normally, customers in supermarkets or discounters can rely on the packaging information on the best-before date when it comes to whether a product is still suitable for consumption or not.

Nevertheless, it is advisable to check the products carefully before eating, even if they are still edible according to the best-before date, in order to detect previously unnoticed bad spots or even mold on food at an early stage.

This was the experience of an Edeka customer who quickly shared her disgusting find online.

The angry customer shared her find on Facebook and wrote to Edeka: "It would be great if you checked your goods when you cleared them away".

Fortunately, her son discovered the mold before eating.

According to her own statements, this is the third time that the customer had accidentally bought spoiled products in the supermarket.

"Smoke less, work more," she grumbled, "we can no longer recommend your shop, it's a shame... it was different."

The customer attached a picture to her post that clearly shows the moldy spot on the hot dog sausage.

Also, in the second picture she shared, according to the expiration date, the hot dog should be good for over a week.

Complaint from Edeka customer causes incomprehension on Facebook

In no time at all, the comments under the angry customer's post began to accumulate.

The reactions of the users were rather less understanding.

“There are always 'air pullers' which then go moldy very quickly.

The staff cannot constantly check the entire inventory,” explained one user and also gave the customer a tip for the future: “If I see something like this on the shelf (I always look at the goods I buy), then I take out the goods and give them to someone from the staff without any negative words.

I always get a thank you and a friendly smile... that's how it works.”

While one user was able to understand the customer's anger, another user complained: "Such a post doesn't get any more stupid than that".

Another commented sarcastically: "It is best for the employees to open each product, turn it over three times and bite into it so that you know whether it still tastes good." Another user also protected the employees of the Edeka branch.

"You obviously didn't see the white horse either," she remarked.

Edeka itself also responded to the customer's contribution.

An employee responsible for the Facebook account thanked them for the tip and asked if the hot dog was a private label product.

So far, there has been no response from the customer to the comment.
