What have you found in your food?

[Sunbaneglasses]

What is the oddest,most disturbing thing you have ever found in your food?I once found some sort of larval worm in a can of Lesuer peas(after I had already eaten some),a chunk of metal that looked like some sort of staple in a slice of bologna when I was a kid,and what I believe to have been a beak in a chicken Mcnugget.What interesting things have you found in your food?

A salad from the Cracker Barrell in Leeds, Alabama just CRAWLING with bugs! (Haven't eaten there since!)

Don't tell me that I Love Cracker Barrel.

[[Syl]]

You love Cracker Barrel.

[Sunbaneglasses]

You love Cracker Barrel.

What? Syl are you ridiculing my love of chicken and dumplings,the friday fish fry,tenderloin and biscuits among other Cracker Barrel specialties?But I will never never ever eat at the one in Leeds.

[The Laughing Man]

Syl, he said "don't" tell him, geez....

A friend of mine once ate HALF a snickers bar, in his car, and when he flipped on the dome light, he, and we, could all see the MAGGOTS crawling all in it and on it, with some of them obviously "bitten in half". (he did puke, we all almost did, heh.)

most disgusting post ever.

we find bugs in the canned veggies all the time at work.

Yeah, this one is the nastiest food thread since the turkey testicle festival.

I wish you guys had not brought up the Cracker Barrel. I ate my birthday dinner there last night.

[onewyteduck]

Duchess, you're safe. I just don't eat at that particular Cracker Barrell and I never eat the salads at any of them.

And a very happy birthday to you!

My dad's friend found the better part of a finger nail (part finger too) in his tuna sandwich... the part of the sandwich that was in his mouth. *Hurk*

WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE GET THIS STUFF??? (Eurk, angst... I think i'll join the Death Eater Friendship Club...) Really, though, nothing nassy has ever gotten into my food. (I see why, as most of it is tofu and soy.)

Of course, I AM mildly OCD/paranoid about fastfood too. (Yes, she rips everything apart and inhales it. NO NOT THE JACKET!!!)

(Mumphulumble...) Seriously, that's just nasty.

local KFC was shut down when maggots were found crawling and infesting under the food serving line. just a solid mass of them. urk!

Worst thing?
A band-aid in a Quarter Pounder.
(Not IN the meat, just under the bun. Luckily, I seen it before I started to eat the burger.)
Worst experience?
I once bit into a cherry pie from Mc D's and chipped a tooth on a cherry seed that was inside.

I don't eat at McDonalds anymore.

A very delicious Danish Christmas speciality called Jar of Pig (All the tender meat of a pigs head boiled with bay leaves and cloves and cooled in the soup to make a terrine that sets (due to the copious amount of gelatine). This can be cut in thin slices when cold and is served with mustard, beetroots and rye-bread. Unfortunately my butcher had forgotten a pigs tooth in there, which I bit into and... chipped a tooth! I'm sure that at least sgtnull can appreciate the poetic justice

[sgt.null]

Prebe: you win for most vile food stuff eaten. unless, forbid , someone has eaten something even more disgusting. and the pig did get a bit of revenge.

has anyone here had haggis?

[Prebe]

Heh! sgtnull. I like it though. And yes, I have had haggis, and I love it. It is far less foul that people think.

[sgt.null]

erm, urk. ok.

boiled innards as delicious? wouldn't the need to not eat them have caused the desire to quell?

[Prebe]

I think it is a matter of not thinking, just tasting. If it tastes good, well, you eat it

[sgt.null]

not unless they make a veggie haggis.

[Prebe]

I have just been in Scotland, and they actually do!
The innards substituted with turnips, carrots and other root-veggies. All the "secret" spices are in there of course.
