Now Lidl limits sales of certain vegetables, but the Frome store was already empty of them on Sunday
Lidl is the latest supermarket to introduce limits on sales of certain fruit and vegetables due to shortages of fresh produce.
The company is putting limits of three per customer on sales of peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers.
However when Nub News visited on Sunday (February 26) there were no products on sale anyway.
Tesco, Aldi, Asda and Morrisons have already set some limits, but today (February 27) Marks & Spencers food section in Bath had a lot of tomatoes, at least in the organic section.
According to The Guardian newspaper, shortages of fruit and vegetables such as tomatoes and cucumbers could be the "tip of the iceberg".
The National Farmers' Union (NFU) deputy president, Tom Bradshaw, said a reliance on imports had left the UK particularly exposed to "shock weather events"
