A man allegedly failed a drugs test for a new job after eating slices of his favourite Tesco 'poppy seed bread.' The man's shocked sister explained how she had given him slices of the seeded loaf to make sandwiches before a job interview. Yet during that interview he had a drug test which identified that he had opium in his system. The man was left baffled as he had not consumed any medication, and they later discovered that the bread was the cause. According to medical journals, this type of bread, and other foods can cause this result. That's because although poppy seeds do not contain any opium initially, the seeds can absorb opium or become coated by it in the harvesting process.
