Some supermarkets have begun to relax their limits on the amount of certain fruits and vegetables that shoppers can buy instore. Last month, supply issues down to bad weather and transport problems in Africa meant that things like tomatoes and peppers were hard to come by in supermarkets.
Because of this, rations were introduced to ensure they were distributed fairly - and some of these have now been relaxed in certain shops. Asda has confirmed it has removed limits of three on cucumbers, lettuce, salad bags, broccoli, cauliflower and raspberries, leaving restrictions of three on just tomatoes and peppers.
The supermarket said availability overall had improved as expected, and supplies of tomatoes and peppers were also expected to be back to normal within a couple of weeks.
