A SANDWICH shop has been banned from selling bacon butties after a vegetarian complained about the “vile” smell.
Sizzlers Sandwich Bar in Stamford Square, Ashton under Lyne, was issued with an enforcement notice following complaints from neighbour Anthony Goodwin.
Owners Steven and Linda Male have been warned they will be committing a criminal offence if they carry on making the traditional breakfast favourite, which they sell to customers for £1.
The couple have described the order banning them from selling hot food as “completely ridiculous” and say it will have a major impact on their livelihood.
But council officials insist the enforcement notice is justified because the shop has not followed the correct planning procedure.
Mr Goodwin has been living next door to the shop for 10 years and says he was never troubled until the Males took over a year ago and started selling bacon butties.
The 40-year-old former pub singer, who performed under the stage name Tony Wayne, said: “I’ve spent £3,000 on my garden to make it nice for my daughter but we can’t use it now because it stinks.
“You can’t have the windows or doors open so you’re basically locked in your house. It’s vile. I shouldn’t be in this situation. I’ve lived in my home for 10 years then they came along and caused all this
