I no what everyone will say. Out of all things to talk about why this. Anyhow I went to the dollar store today and bought a few things. Well on my way out I see a bag of Golden Orchards Pistachio Nuts. I decide to grab a bag to snack on at home. Well I was setting down relaxing ,watching a movie eating my nuts(Pistachios Nuts). Anyhow I almost make it through the bag and i go to open another one and the is like a fucking cobweb in it with 2 freakin worms. I swear it's no shit. I almost lost my f--kin cookies. I saved the bag and Im taking those bastards back tomorrow. what would you do If this happened to you. :cry: :evil:

You can take the bag back to the store, or you can actually send the contents (cobwebs, worms and all) back to the company if there is an address on the bag. It might not accomplish anything, but then again...

This is a true story. I think this was in the mid 70's, around 1975-65. My mother had purchased several cans of Weis vegetable soup. She did up one of the cans for my lunch, and as I was eating it, I saw several dead worms float to the surface. I didn't get sick, but I brought it to my mother's attention. She was pretty pissed. I was pretty enterprising (for a 15-16-year old kid); I took the label from the can, typed a letter, packed the actual worms on a paper towel wrapped in a plastic sandwich bag (with broth stains, after all, they were in the soup), and mailed a complaint letter to Weis' corporate offices in Sunbury. A few weeks later, I received an apology letter from Weis, along with coupons good for ten more cans of soup. They explained it was a quality control problem and that they were concerned and investigating what happened. We used the coupons to get more soup, no worms in any of those cans!

A similar story...We had bought breakfast sausage back in the 70's (I forget the brand name, Jimmy Dean or something like that), and while I was eating sausage and eggs for breakfast, I felt something hard on my molar when I chewed down. Fortunately, my tooth didn't break, but I pulled a small piece of metal out of my mouth - it was one of the heavy staple-like bands they use to close the plastic casing on the sausage package. Again, we sent a letter to the company to report what had happened, and again, the company sent us an apology letter and a pile of coupons good for more sausage.

I know in today's climate, you have people claiming to find fingers and other stuff in food to try to scam companies, so I don't know how effective reporting actual incidents might be. But a lot of companies might still be concerned about public relations problems stemming from defective products, and if you present actual evidence that their products were defective, they might still be willing to make reparations for the problem. It might be worth a try.

LOL, I diden't mean to bumb anyone out. It just took me by suprise. If I was going to have the chance to make $50,000 by eating a worm I would have thrown that damn thing in my mouth and never said another word. I was just watching a movie and having a little snack. The whole thing kinda ruined my moment. Please don't tell me If anyone finds anything in Jager because I'll bawl with ya. :twisted:

About a year ago my friends and I were at a Chinese Buffet. Of course when we were done with the main course, we went for the ice cream. Typically I think buffets are gross but what the heck...it's chinese!!! We get our ice cream with toppings...including nuts. We are eating, I'm just about done. My other friend, just about done. The third takes a spoonfull...finds cobwebs and a worm just as she is about to take a bite. We complained to the waitress who said something that we couldn't understand. Honest to God we made out the word Tarantula and that was about it!!! We laughed our asses off and then complained to the girl at the checkout who gave my friend 10% off her meal. Only her because she's the one who just about ate it. We got nothing. The next time we went back, no nuts on the buffet!!! We laughed our asses off.

When my brother and I were little we spent the night at our aunts house and he found some chocolate easter bunnies and began munch'n away. I asked him if I could have a piece of one and then I saw what he was eating and started to laugh. He got mad at me for laugh'n and took all the candy. Well he must have noticed something didn't seem right about these bunnies and asked me why they had sprinkels on them. I freak'n lost it , and I couldn't let him eat any more cause those weren't sprinkels at all they were mouse turds! The poor guy must have eaten a hand full or so before I told him. He still calls me a asshole after 20 plus years for that one. :twisted:

My mother found foil shavings in her cake frosting once and she put some in a piece of Saran Wrap and sent it to the company who made it. Well a couple of weeks went by and wouldn't ya know it , a package showed up a the door. It was a huge box of free coupons for all kinds of stuff that the company made besides cake frosting and a letter say'n that they were sorry about the foil. I don't think she ever used all those coupons.

I'm sure we all have eaten something that has been tainted so to speak ,but we just didn't know it ! l.o.l. :wink:

I love macaroni and cheese! Once when I was in the USAF, I made a batch, real creamy, with Velveeta, and while I'm sitting, watching TV, "CRUNCH".... I almost broke a tooth! I spit it out to find a full finger or thumb nail complete with bits of red polish on it and what appeared to be shredded skin or something underneath!! I called the company and ended up getting $50 in coupons for their products!!! GROSS~~~ :shock:

I still luvs my mac-n-cheese though!!! :P

My wife made one of those package deals with broccoli and cheese once, from Weis market... she went to take a bite while watching TV, and I spied a big ol' stink bug on her forkful. She has a bug phobia of the nth degree, and when I told her to freeze, she looked at it and started horking like she was going to toss chow right then and there. It was touch and go, but she maintained, and didn't hurl. She was going to tell them about it, but found out that the FDA allows for a certain amount of insects in produce, it really can't be helped... now a fingernail, that's another story...-------->JMS

Oh my god if you read some of the FDA allowances of insects or parts in food stuff you would not eat a thing.

I read once in an newspaper story where it talked about breakfast food like cornflakes and the like! It also talked about findings in these same foods, insect wings, legs mouse and rat hair and other crap.

I couldn't eat willout thinking about this for a long time. This was all acceptable allowances stated in percentages.

Damn rat mouse or insect anything in my food 0 percent allowance. I guess thats not realistic.
