The parents of a Leeds university student who died after eating a takeaway pizza appeared in an emotional episode of ITVs Good Morning Britain on Monday.
James Atkinson, 23, had a known peanut allergy and may have suffered anaphylaxis having eaten only one slice of a pizza he ordered from Deliveroo. His parents called for the "full truth" and pushed for the inquest into their son's death, who they say was always "so careful" with his allergy.
James, who died on July 10, 2020, had ordered food from the same premises before. However, he was not aware that the restaurant had begun using peanut powder as one of the ingredients when making a chicken tikka masala pizza.
