UK: Nest of baby spiders found in Aldi banana

A mother from North Wales found a nest of baby spiders in a 'funsize' pack of bananas she bought from Aldi. Keely Pritchard, 22, from Prestatyn, North Wales, noticed a 'strange growth' on one of the fruit she gave to her son, aged three. But when she sliced into it to check, the mother was shocked to see dozens of baby spiders crawling out.


Ms Pritchard, who is pregnant, told the Daily Post: 'I saw the bananas in the fruit bowl and I ate one and when I went to get one for my son, we noticed a strange growth on it. 

'I decided to cut it open to have a look and lots of baby spiders came out.'
