Sexy strawberries sales firm up
Strawberry sales have rocketed since scientists revealed that the fruit is nature’s own version of Viagra. Supermarkets are up 17 per cent up following news on Monday that they have a similar effect to the ant-impotence drug. Growers have been warned that orders could triple by the weekend.
ASDA buyer Lee Harper said: “The research definitely had passionate effect on shoppers.”
Customer Georgina Benson, 28, at ASDA’s Morley store in Leeds, said: “I can’t believe that I’m carrying on aphrodisiac in my shopping basket- but thought I would buy a few punnets just for a laugh. I hope my husband is amused.”
