The video shows two bags of bread kept side by side on a countertop when suddenly one of them starts shaking. Within seconds, a huge rat climbs out of one of the packets onto a pile of plastic lids kept on the same countertop. Finally, the furry rodent disappears behind an oven.

“Would you like some rat with that?” jokingly commented a Facebook user. “Health conscious [rat] going for brown bread,” wrote another. “I wouldn’t stand to video him ... would be gone screaming out the door,” commented a third. “This is disgusting,” wrote a fourth.

“Our Cherry Orchard site has been temporarily closed following a pest control issue. We are conducting a full investigation into the incident, which falls well below our high operating standards. The health and safety of our customers is our first priority and we are taking this issue extremely seriously,” a spokesperson of Applegreen told Irish Mirror.

How would you react if you come across such a situation?
