Asda sued over frog in wine bottle
Asda sued over frog in wine bottle
Oct 4, 2010 6
A woman is suing UK supermarket Asda after buying a bottle of wine from the supermarket – which allegedly contained a frog.
Isolde Beesley says the small frog fell out of the bottle of Spanish wine and into her glass during a family celebration.
Ms Beesley, from Leicestershire, says she has suffered stomach pains ever since the incident and has hired lawyers to pursue a claim for compensation.
Asda, who took the Moscatel de Valencia wine off the shelves as a precaution while it conducted an investigation, says it has rigorous inspection procedures in its bottling plants and that it is ‘virtually impossible’ for a frog to enter a wine bottle during the bottling process.
