    So once while at Golden Corrals buffet, I was making a beautiful salad, starting with spinach leaves.... and in my tong full of spinach was a gigantic dead grasshopper. I almost puked. I just sat the plate down there on the salad bar and walked away....

    If any of you read any of those "Eat this, Not that" books... the supermarket one may gross you out.
    There is a % of misc stuff that is tolerated to get into food... like hair, rodent stuff, eggs, etc. :bigsmile:
    Gotta keep in mind, MAJOR manufacturing plants...they aren't gonna catch it all.

    My brother found a big roach looking bug in his canned spinach one time - maybe it's just spinach the bugs like!
