I was served mouldy apple pie but when I complained the Fleetwood dessert shop never replied
“It was vile!”
A customer at a Fleetwood dessert shop received a slice of mouldy apple pie which she says was ‘vile’.
Kerry, who lives in Thornton purchased the dessert from Indulge Desserts in Fleetwood on Wednesday (April 29) and although it looked normal when it first arrived, with a sell-by date of May 4, she immediately noticed visible mould on the pie.
She said: “I took photos straight away as I was quite shocked. This obviously raised concerns about food safety.
“I contacted Just Eat and reported the issue, providing the photos as evidence.

“I have also reported the matter to the local council’s food safety team due to the seriousness of it. I contacted the restaurant via email but never got a response.”
Kerry complained to Just Eat, the food delivery company that delivered the apple pie, and provided photos as evidence.
“Unfortunately, the response from Just Eat was disappointing, I didn't get a refund but I'm not too fussed about that.
“I was more angry at the fact they'd even sent mouldy food! I thought how could they not notice that?
“I’ve since shared the images online to warn others, as I wouldn’t want anyone else to experience the same thing. It was vile!”
Indulge Desserts and JustEat have been approached for comments.
