Tesco shopper speechless as he finds 'rude' parsnip inside 19p bag of vegetables

A Tesco shopper and his wife were left "rolling around laughing" after finding a very suggestive parsnip inside a bag of veg.

Matthew Whitaker, 44, was stunned to pull out the phallic foodstuff from the 19p sack.

And he said it prompted a laughing fit from his wife Amy, 34.

It is the second time Matthew has found a rude veg - two years ago he pulled out a carrot that looked like a tiny member in between two legs.

This time around it was a parsnip which appears to have been gifted with an enormous appendage.

Matthew and his wife of nine years Amy fell about laughing when they saw it.

Two years ago, the couple, of St Just in Penwith, Cornwall, found a carrot with a rude-looking appendage from a bag of shopping they'd had delivered from the same store.

Delivery driver Matthew said Amy, a support worker, called him into the kitchen to show him the hilarious X-rated find.

The couple usually buy wonky carrots, but their local store did not have any in when they ordered - and Matthew quipped they sent "winky" ones instead.

Matthew, originally from Bradford, West Yorks., added: "We had a good laugh about it, it's the second time I've found a rude vegetable from the same Tesco.

"I guess it's just luck that I find the funny ones. I
