A social media user has brought the attention of her followers to a fake food item.

It appears one cannot be too careful when it comes to going on grocery shopping especially in the open markets scenes.

In what could be described as a completely surprising development, a Nigerian lady left social media users in a startled state after sharing photos of a fake food item that a man bought from the market.

According to the lady identified as Chiamaka, the man bought tomatoes from the market only to discover that what was sold to him was completely unripe.

Sharing the image, the lady wondered how people could be so heartless.
