Amy, who blogs as Mrs Veg, told the supermarket: “Hi Sainsbury’s, I think you might have to have a word with the person who picked my online food shop about what customers mean when they order one broccoli.”
Sainsbury’s apologised for accidentally sending the ‘mini’ broccoli.
Amy added: “We found this hilarious.”
The daft mix up went viral on Twitter as Brits poked fun at the gaffe.

Rosalie Lee said: “That’s hilarious and maddening at the same time.”
Steve Charlton added: “Worth it for the comedy I reckon.”
And Joanne Graham revealed: “I once ordered a pregnancy test with my online shop and they substituted it for cheese and broccoli Pasta ‘n’ Sauce.”
Responding to Amy’s complaint, a Sainsbury’s spokesman said: “Oops! “Sorry about the mini broccoli – we’ll look into this.
They added: “We have apologised to the customer for not preparing the order ‘broccoli’ and have offered her a refund and e-voucher as a gesture of goodwill.”
