Waitrose shopper mocked after complaining about finding feathers on his chicken

A Waitrose shopper was recently outraged after discovering feathers on a chicken he'd bought from his local branch, and decided to complain. Unfortunately, a number of people didn't have much sympathy for his plight, urging him to "just pull them out and get it eaten".

Unimpressed customer Gary purchased the £6.90 garlic and herb whole chicken from a Waitrose store, and only noticed feathers on the wing and leg after he'd already cooked the meat.

Repulsed that the bird apparently hadn't been plucked to his satisfaction, Gary, who has become "accustomed to great quality products from Waitrose", took to social media to air his grievances – but not everybody was on his side.
