Seven drug stories that will make you laugh/cry/gurn

If you think the Tesco story was bad, think again.

The same happened at Aldi in 2015. Another banana shipment and another huge batch of cocaine, although this one clocked in at a little bit more than £600,000. Try €15 Million.

Jono's Pub was accused of turning a "blind eye" to drug dealing after Kinder eggs containing the Class A drug were seized on a number of occasions. Two eggs that contained five and six wraps of cocaine were found hidden in bricks during a licensing check in November, while another was found on a man who admitted to carrying one of the chocolate treats containing three wraps of cocaine in his underwear after police threatened to strip-search him.

Again, inventiveness levels here are high but did anyone think this was really going to work?
