All fruit and vegetables being rationed by supermarkets - and when they could return

Several UK supermarkets have imposed ration limits on certain fruits and vegetables amid shortages due to extreme weather.

On Wednesday, Tesco became the latest retailer to introduce customer limits, following in the footsteps of Aldi, Asda and Morrisons. The shortages of fresh produce has resulted in shelves laid bare, with some customers unable to buy certain essential products.

The initial shortage began with just tomatoes but has since expanded to include a wide variety of fruits and vegetables due to a combination of weather and transport issues in Africa and Europe.
