“Something needs to be done as this is the only big supermarket in Ashington.”

Responding to the complaint, an Asda spokesperson said: “We have robust cleaning processes in place to ensure that our stores are clean and tidy, so we are disappointed to see that we have not met our high standards on this occasion.

“We would like to reassure customers that the store has since been cleaned and we would ask that if any customer has any concerns, they immediately make one of our colleagues aware so they can look into it.”
