A teenage boy went blind and partially deaf after living off a diet of chips, bangers and crisps for a past decade. The British boy, who has remained anonymous, had such a diet he suffered from a condition normally only seen in malnourished third world children.
His is believed to be the first case of its kind in the UK. The 17 year-old had only eaten chips, Pringles, sausages, processed ham and white bread since primary school, telling doctors he did not like the "texture" of fruit and vegetables.
