Stomach-churning moment woman sees a rodent tail sticking out of the ice lolly she’s eating
The woman can only get up to £113 in compensation for rodent in her ice lolly under Chinese food safety laws
A WOMAN was disgusted to find a frozen mouse in her ice lolly - while she was eating it.
Ms Yang bought the sweet treat from a supermarket in Eastern China and only noticed the furry tail sticking out of it after taking several bites.
Furious at her discovery she demanded the shop pay her £11,300 in compensation but the store refused her request.
Under food safety regulations in China the store can only compensate Ms Yang up to 1,000 yuan (£113).
According to , Ms Yang bought the ice lolly from a local supermarket in Huai'an, Jiangsu Province on April 24.
She said: "I took a few bites then I could feel something furry and I thought it might be a small caterpillar."
Ms Yang returned to the supermarket and asked for compensation of more than 100,000 yuan (£11,300) but they refused.
Instead, the store manager offered to compensate her with boxes of ice lollies and later suggested a payment of £230.
According to Global Times Ms Yang said: "I just licked the mouse in the tail! It has cast a shadow on me. How can that little money compensate my psychological loss?"
She has complained to the local market quality supervision after the supermarket refused her substantial compensation request.
Officials examined the lolly and confirmed it was a rodent.
But Office Zhu Conglai told Ms Yang that the supermarket is only a medium to sell lollies to customers.
He said: "The ice lolly manufacturers are set in Shandong Province and it is out of our administrative area."
Ms Yang has not agreed to the supermarkets compensation offer and is seeking to get a higher payout.
