Tesco and Aldi limit sales of tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers
The grocers join Asda and Morrisons in limiting sales due to shortages of certain produce.
There will be tens of thousands of them. You just watch. All whizzing down the shops to buy stuff they don't even need just in case.Idiots.
I don't think you can even freeze things like tomatoes, cucumbers or peppers. Maybe you can but they aren't going to taste very good so why would anyone buy loads of this sort of thing.I think the shortages have been an issue well before any panic buying (not that I've seen any evidence of that) - it's very much a supply issue rather than a demand one, and I'm not sure how you go about hoarding fresh produce the same way as toilet roll...
Don’t want to give the loonies a tip but you could make batches of tomato sauce with the peppers and tomatoes then freeze it. Not sure about the cucumbers though.I don't think you can even freeze things like tomatoes, cucumbers or peppers.

I grew some tomatoes last year and ended up with a bit of a glut so your tip might come into some use later in the year.Don’t want to give the loonies a tip but you could make batches of tomato sauce with the peppers and tomatoes then freeze it. Not sure about the cucumbers though.

I’m still holding out for the long overdue launch of the three seashells…….I came here hoping for a toilet paper alternative.
Now it’s too late.

So Brexit caused the war in Europe which has made energy prices spiral and also caused extreme weather in the countries where we normally get our veg from?A combination of poor weather conditions in Europe and Africa and, as usual, Brexit.
Any shortages on tomatoes and peppers in Italy?I must have moved to another continent without realising.
Why is that?I must have moved to another continent without realising.

But you're correct, Brexit blamed as usual.
How is it Brexit?Sorry I meant poor growing conditions and Brexit are the actual reasons, but not necessarily the reasons given
Everything is Brexit.
I'm going to not turn up to work for a week and just blame Brexit. I'm hoping that it distracts my boss so he rants about Brexit to realise I was on the lash for a week.
This detailed diagram explains!
Thankfully you can still buy lettuce, that would have been the tip of the iceberg otherwise!
