A woman from Leicester has said she felt "traumatised" after finding bacon in her McDonald's egg and cheese McMuffin yesterday morning.

Aameena Ahmed is Muslim and only allowed to eat halal meat, but has also chosen to be vegetarian.

The 28-year-old has compared her experience to someone with an allergy being given food they can't eat for medical reasons.

"If I was to have consumed the bacon, I think the mental impact it would have had, and the impact on my emotional state, would have been just as severe," she said.

She complained to McDonald's and Uber Eats - where she ordered the meal - and was offered a refund and meal vouchers, but Ms Ahmed said that is not the response she wanted.

"I just wanted a sincere apology and that's what I didn't get," she said.

A McDonald's spokesperson told the BBC: "We absolutely recognise that it is not acceptable to serve meat when a vegetarian product has been ordered, and we sincerely apologise to the customer for the mistakes that were made in this case. This was simply not good enough.

"We have a number of procedures in place to avoid inaccurate orders, but in this case these were clearly not followed, and we are looking into why this occurred."
