The smell in Morrisons

Anyone else smelled it?

I am convinced that I have a problem because to me it smells like a mixture of sewage and refuse. But everyone else in the shop seems oblivious.

I've noticed it. And when we first moved to PG a neighbour said she never shopped there because of the smell.

I have also noticed it, and like Basil's neighbour, I don't shop there because of it (well, that and the lack of quality, safe bike parking).

I'm sure there are health and safety issues with storing food in this building. I am sure there are health and safety issues in allowing employees and customers breathe the fumes in.

I wonder if Enfield Council have had any complaints?

I haven't detected this problem, and I find their fresh bread, veg and fruit to be particularly good.

I'm concerned about this thread and wonder whether having raised a problem that rather than continue it, that those concerned should either speak to Morrisons or even trading standards.

I have no interest in Morrisons other than as a shopper!

Morrisons' predecessor Safeway was built, as older residents may recall, on an industrial site. I think it housed a large cable store yard, Before that, it was a coal yard and I have been assured that Morrisons' distinctive perfume is a memory of the days when coal wagons were horse-drawn.

It was so bad yesterday afternoon I left the store. A member of staff was spraying air freshener in the aisle, which I am told you cannot do, but it was so bad it went as far as the music / household aisle. It is a terrible smell and must be addressed. I believe the reason for it is they added more toilets but did not widen the drain pipes. It needs to be dealt with as it isn't going to get any better any sooner.

It's definitely there. . . .

I am sure it's no coincidence that the Daily Mail (and, no, I don't read it!) a couple of days ago had a piece about the Which? report that reviewed food hygiene reports submitted by all local authorities that revealed that Enfield was the poorest performing of all 398 local authorities - with only 54 percent of its 'medium and 'high risk' businesses meeting hygiene requirements.
Enfield said that their figures have been misunderstood by Which? and, wait for this - Chris Bond, Cabinet member for environment and community safety is quoted as saying that "This research is so fundamentally flawed that I would not wrap my chips in the paper it is printed on."
I love it! Fighting stuff . . . but, why is he still eating chips in this era of healthy eating?
