You can't buy that lime... it could be classed as a weapon: Shock for
chef shopping at Asda

A chef was stunned to find she was almost banned from buying two limes
from a supermarket - because they could be classed as a weapon.

Marisa Zoccolan, 31, popped into the new Asda supermarket close to her
home in Wallsend, North Tyneside, to pick up some groceries, including
the citrus fruits.

But when she tried to pay for them at the self-service checkout, the
message 'amount exceeded, authorisation required' flashed up.

When limes are outlawed,....

It isn't clear whether this nonsense came from the UK government, the
EU, Asda's inane policies, or Asda's incompetent software suppliers.
