A red-faced mum has slammed Tesco after she got awkward questions from her seven-year-old son about sex toys on sale.

Erica Blake, 41, was shopping with her son when he spotted the adult products on display.

The schoolboy then asked his mother what they were.

The saucy items were on the top shelf in the toiletries aisle sandwiched between vitamins and contact lens solutions.

Among them were a £30 Durex Slide and Ride for solo sex.

Others include a Suction Simulator costing £29.50 and a Heart Vibrator for £25.

There is also a £20 Pleasure Cup and a £15 Wonder Bullet.

“I was buying vitamins for my son when I noticed all the sex toys on the top shelf,” Erika told Need To Know.

“I never knew Tesco stocked these items.

“I didn’t know where to look.”

“My son asked me ‘What’s Slide and Ride’ mummy?

“I was so embarrassed and didn’t know what to say.”

Erika added: “All the sex toys had security tags on or were in boxes.

“Thieves must be getting desperate in these hard times. Talk about stiff security.

“Who would want to steal a vibrator? They must be really hard up.

“It’s getting ridiculous now.

“The world has gone mad.”

Tesco has been approached for comment.
