Sainsbury's launches investigation as family claim to find mouse in granola
Sainsbury's is investigating a possible packaging breach after a family found a live mouse inside a sealed 1kg granola bag purchased at a London store.
- Josie Wright, a 16-year-old student, noticed a £2.40 sealed bag of Sainsbury's Raisin, Nut & Honey granola moving after returning from a Sainsbury's Local in London, and the family filmed scratching sounds inside.

- Josie Wright initially left the sealed 1kg granola bag for five minutes then heard munching, saw half-eaten oats and movement, while Lindsay Wright heard crackling and saw the packet move.
- The Wright family returned the sealed packet to the Sainsbury's store and reported it to customer services, while Sainsbury's said it is urgently investigating with its supplier and requested permission to contact the customer.
- The Wright family urged Sainsbury's to review packing processes to prevent recurrence, noting they regularly buy the granola product and were lucky to spot the movement before opening it.
