A Romanian man was shocked to find a dead mouse inside a salami sausage he was eating.

Nelu Luca, from Iasi, had eaten almost half of the vacuum-packed salami before he spotted the mouse.

He said: "I couldn't believe it. I'm always careful with what I buy but the salami looked perfectly fine from the outside. But in the middle there was a dead mouse."

Manufacturers Tabco Campofrio Romania, based in Tulcea, now face a fine of up to £1,000.

Valerian Salvastru, head of consumer protection in Iasi, said: "We took samples from the salami and sent them to the lab to see if there was a health risk. We are continuing our investigations."
