Even if you haven’t eaten from this takeaway, you’re probably about to feel grossed out.

When it was inspected, Harvey’s Chicken and Pizza was found to have dirty socks in the food preparation area and food covered in mould.

There was no hot water for staff to wash in and a cannabis crusher was found, along with evidence of smoking, in food areas.

Meat was being kept at too high a temperature and some frozen produce was unidentifiable.

Out-of-date coleslaw was on sale and pineapple used on pizzas was found in a rusty tin with metal shards inside with the fruit.

Council officers found dirty socks in the food preparation area and food covered in weeks of mould

Tuna was unfit to be eaten, mushrooms were covered in slime and staff had no hot water to wash in.

Kebab meat was left to defrost in a carrier bag under a food preparation bench and chicken to be sold to the public was rotten. Marinading lamb was also gathering mould.

Kasim Ali Ahmed, who owns the takeaway in Preston, admitted nine offences of keeping dirty premises and dangerous food.

He’s now been sent to crown court so that he can be given a tougher sentence after it was found that he was in breach of a suspended jail term.

He’s also got a violent past with previous convictions for assault and harassment.

Prosecuctor Michael Lavery said: ‘This was an intentional and flagrant disregard of the law which posed a serious high risk to the public. Conditions were deplorable and the food was mouldy and putrid.

‘There was no cleaning, no hot water for handwash basins and no records kept. No systems whatsoever.’

He is also seeking an order banning Ahmed from working in the food industry.

The council visits resulted in Ahmed, who is from Blackburn, getting a zero hygiene rating but he continually failed to improve his premises and when it was finally shut down by the council using a court order he removed the official notices from his shop window.

The prosecutor added: ‘The place was in a terrible condition. There was mould on virtually every type of food and some was out of date.’

Chairman of the Bench Marilyn Padgett said the matter were so serious and sent the case for sentence at Crown Court.

I like how these facts get top billing in the story:

No hot water for employees to wash with, cannabis crusher was found (which is essentially a coffee grinder), and they were smoking in the establishment.


How about all of the rotten food and horribly unhygienic conditions....EVERYWHERE else? :lol:
