    I once worked in a meat department and while slicing a ham I found a metal rod about 4 inches long.

    A dead ladybug in the lettuce wraps at PF Chang's. I don't think it was good luck...

    When I was a kid my mom found maggots in a box of jiff pie crust mix. ugh!

    Does anyone else remember when we were kids and there was something called Crystal Pepsi (clear pepsi that tasted delish)? Well there was a scare about people finding syringes in them. Didn't happen to us, but man was that good stuff - not sure why it went away...maybe we were the only kids drinking it...

    And apparently a certain amount of bug/rat/other debris is permitted in food :sick:

    Growing up on a farm I realize that most people have no idea about what goes in to food. Vegans may think they are not eating meat but I would be willing to put money down that there is a little bit in there.

    When I was a kid, somehow, my mom cooked spinach that was from a bag and we started eating it and it was full of bees and hair. I'm still confused.


    I'm sorry but that made me laugh. LMAO

    I was on a bus trip for school years ago and we stopped along the way and had box meals of fried chicken delivered to us at one stop for lunch. When I opened my box, one of the pieces of chicken had been fried with the feathers still on it.

    That's ok. It makes me laugh too. When she called the company, they thought she must be hallucinating.

    Years ago I opened an ice cream container and found a VERY long black hair on the second scoop into the container....
    considering I had short blonde hair...I KNEW it wasn't mine..
    called the company and got a coupon..
    I once bought 3 cans of tuna and made hot tuna sandwiches for the family...well as I was mixing I thought, gawd this smells strong..
    since I was pregnant I attributed it to that..
    I couldn't eat it or give it to the kids, it was that strong..I called the company, and come to find out..a batch of tuna that was meant for CAT FOOD was packaged for people...every can of tuna was pulled from the shelves from across the country..I received a check for the groceries I used, along with a check for $200 to keep my mouth shut and not tell the news...I should have gotten more..LOL to this day I can't eat tuna..ever

    Found a dead, baked up roach once in a bag of cereal. EW.

    Not my story, but one time, a kid near me was eating school chili and he pulled out a sizable screw from the bottom on the bowl. WUT?

    When I was little my mom used to have an organic vegetable garden so...all manner of little cooties could get in there if you weren't really careful while washing the stuff before cooking.

    I still remember the day I almost ate an inchworm hidden in my broccoli. *shudder*

    Years ago when I was in grade school, my mom gave us a dollar or two once a month when she got paid. We walked to and from school and across the street from the school was a laundry mat that we waited on mom when it rained. She knew the owners and we would "work" for them for 1/2 hr or so waiting on mom. We got to get an item out of the vending machine when we finished. I got a zero bar. When I opened it there was a dollar between the wrapper and the paper the zero bar sat on! I'll never forget it! Being 7-8 at the time I thought that was amazing! LOL
