Investigations are under way after claims that human hair was found in a Chinese takeaway meal.
Stunned Jon Janes, 22, of Langford Crescent, Thundersley, said he made his discovery as he tucked into his favourite food while watching football at home.

The remains of the meal bought from the Tasty Wok in London Road, Hadleigh, were taken to Castle Point Environmental Health officers who have now sent items away for analysis.
However, the owner of the takeaway is adamant that whatever was found in the food could not have come from them and believe that the official analysis will clear them from blame.
Mr Janes alleged that he found hairs in the food after eating most of a beef in tomato dish.
