Tesco is the latest supermarket to set limits on the number of eggs each customer can purchase.
Britain's biggest supermarket chain has introduced the measures amid food shortage concerns. Tesco customers will be limited to three boxes of eggs per shop, despite earlier claims of "good availability" across stores.
The decision follows similar moves by Lidl - with three-box rules also implemented across stores - and Asda which currently has a two-box restriction in place - with both supermarkets introducing the measures last week. The rationing decision was taken as a "precaution", with the company continuing to work with supply partners. Rival firms- including Sainsbury's and Morrisons - are not currently operating under any restrictions on egg purchasing in their stores..
