A man claims that he missed out on a job after failing a drugs test because he ate bread that had been made with poppy seeds.
His potential employers didn’t give him the position after the test showed that he had opium in his system. But, he says, he hadn’t taken any drugs and wasn’t on any medication.
The man’s sister, from Plymouth, took to social media to raise awareness.
She said: “Just a quick one for everyone to be aware of…My brother went for a job interview today and had to do a drugs test he failed, with opium in his system.
“Yesterday he came to mine and I had his favourite bread in he took 4 slices home with him, ate two yesterday and made a sandwich to take with him today as he was going to be at this interview all day!!”
