Dozens of protestors gathered outside the supermarket in Hodge Hill, Birmingham, yesterday and could be heard calling on the chain to stop all trade with Israeli agricultural companies.
As the protest escalated, some demonstrators entered the premises and started hurling produce around and 'getting aggressive' - leaving both staff and shoppers traumatised.
It comes after a series of attacks on shops up and down the UK by protestors who are calling for Israeli produce and products to stop being sold in Britain.

Tesco sells a number of products which are sourced from Israel, including some fruit, peppers, potatoes and herbs, as well as a selection of branded goods. The supermarket giant said all Israeli sourced products are labelled in accordance with EU guidelines.
Photos of yesterday’s protest show more than 20 police officers trying to control demonstrators, while Tesco products are seen strewn across the floor.
West Midlands Police said one person was later arrested for assaulting its officers, while a further two had to be escorted from the premises.
Tesco customers took to social media to share their experiences of the protest against the Gaza conflict, which resulted in nearby roads being cordoned off by police.
One told Birminghamupdates.com: 'I was just in the Tesco in Hodge Hill, scanning my items and I heard chanting.
'Then a group of Asian men holding Palestinian flags came walking in and starting to push products over and getting aggressive with staff and shoppers.
'Police officers tried to stop them but I ran out.'

Mark Gardner, director of communications at the Community Security Trust, said dozens of reports of anti-Israel attacks on shops and supermarkets across the country had been reported in recent weeks.
Condemning the actions of the protestors, he said: ‘We have seen protestors claiming that all UK supermarkets are owned by Jews and that they give 25 per cent of their profits to the Israeli Army.
‘Then there is the violent intimidation as now witnessed in Birmingham. We are calling upon police to act swiftly against this and for politicians to stop encouraging such devises and dangerous moves.
‘It gives a chilling insight of the anti-Semitism that moves within these in circles.’
Earlier this month, Labour MP Shabana Mahmood, for Birmingham Ladywood, could be seen on film apparently supporting a protest outside a Sainsbury’s store in the city.
In footage of the protest, she can be seen excitedly telling the camera how the store had been forced to close early, resulting in thousands of pounds worth of loss, due to the protest.
Hmmm... Birmingham, Luton and Rochdale... something the Religion of Peace connects those areas to one another but I can't quite put my finger on what it may be. But here's yet another example thus proving one of my favourite sayings which is that if you bring in the third world, and you'll bring in their customs and ways too. Isn't it great? But at least we can pat ourselves on the back and say we're more diverse and tolerant (apart from the Jews who are at the recieving end), right?
And it's nice to see a Labour MP egging them on too, after all - gotta get the diversity vote, innit? Why do you think Labour brought so many of them in? For the economy? To make us more 'diverse'? Lol, it's pretty obvious when you think about it.
Interesting there hasn't been much coverage though, or talk by the politicians. Boy, if there had been attacks and incidents across towns and cities by say the EDL on Islamic shops..... would you see BBC cameras, politicians & talking heads all over the place.
Thoughts?
