Tiny pieces of plastic and other debris have been found in mussels sampled from eight locations around the UK coast, including Plymouth, according to a report published in the Environmental Pollution journal.

Of the samples of wild mussels from eight coastal locations and eight unnamed supermarkets, 100% were found to contain microplastics or other debris "from human activity".

The research by scientists from the University of Hull and Brunel University London showed microplastics consumption by people eating seafood in the UK was likely to be "common and widespread", with every 100 grams of mussels eaten containing an estimated 70 pieces of debris.

More debris was found in the wild mussels from Plymouth, Edinburgh, Filey, Hastings, Brighton, Cardiff and Wallasey, than in the farmed mussels bought in shops.
