A professional boxer has been left disgusted after finding the remains of a rat inside an Aldi spinach bag.

Ben Savva, 31, found the rodent's body in October last year when he was making a breakfast smoothie at his home in Sydney's east. 

Mr Savva had already eaten half of the spinach the day before. 

He described the rat as having its skin removed, while the rodent's tail and back legs were also found in the salad mix. 

'I grab a handful of spinach each morning and put it into my blender, I was so lucky I spotted it - it could have easily been blended into my shake,' Mr Savva told Daily Mail Australia.
