A corner shop owner in Bradford has been fined after trying to flog a sausage nearly half a year past its use-by date 🤢

Trading Standards said it posed a ‘significant risk’ to the public after making the shocking discovery during a routine inspection in October 2021.

Former shopkeeper Karim Mohammed Omer Jaf, 36, was fined £207 and ordered to pay £640 in court costs after he pleaded guilty to a number of food hygiene offences. Prosecutor Harjit Ryatt said: ‘Use-by dates are very important, especially with products deemed to be highly perishable.‘Legislation on this issue is very strict – any food for sale past its use-by date can lead to enforcement.’

Mo Hussain, defending, said it was common for people to debate whether out of date food was suitable to eat.
