Don't enter this thread if you like ice cream

So I like to buy things on sale at my local grocery store. They have a weekly flyer that i can check online around friday.

First thing I noticed was a sale on ice cream. Cool!. didn't really see much other sales besides wonder bread on sale. Just so you know, I hate this supermarket...everything is full retail...and i live in a poor area...like wtf guys.

So i buy a few things that add up around 40 bucks as usual...I get home and put the groceries away. A day later I have a bowl of ice cream..it was vanilla with chocolate ripples. I have a bowl of ice cream and enjoying myself..because i love ice cream and I never get to enjoy myself. I bite into something very hard...like super hard and unbreakable...i spit out a pepple of what felt like glass or ceramic pottery. I just figured it was some gristly thing from my baloney sandwich. So i'm sitting with my nephew today and he tells me he found half a tooth in his ice cream. Half a molar was all shiny and the other side was all rotten.

HOLY FUCK! I'm never eating ice cream again.

Anybody suing anybody?

Might be hard to prove, too many people try and do this, remember the woman who claimed she found a breaded chicken head in her wings?, turns out the chickens are beheaded 1st and it's discarded, then how did an employee not see this when boxing up the wings?. She retracted her idea of a lawsuit.

My daughter found a big caterpillar in her salad @ Ruby Tuesdays once ... I have a picture she sent me somewhere. She never considered suing but won't eat at RT's anymore lol.

That I can believe since caterpillar's eat plant's and most places use pre-packaged product these days, (can't have anyone actually using a knife in a kitchen, now can we). 🙁

Yeah didn't really bother me much .... free protein ! 😛


And using knives in the kitchen could lead to fingers in chili so no.
 
I bit into something super hard once when eating a pita, I don't know what it was, a pita is kinda "messy" to try to see what's in it and whatever it was I just swallowed it with whatever rest of the pita that was in my mouth, not about to spit out everything, was not alone when it happened so it would be kinda gross to do that. It may have been something organic like a shell of something or what not, but it seemed very hard to consider the type of ingredients in there. I was more worried about any damage it may have done to my tooth. It hurt for quite a while after that but after a few weeks it was ok, and dentist never found any damage.

But now I always worry it happens again when I eat one.

Wendy's has a slicer for tomatoes, I don't think anyone actually uses a knife there, the patties are sourced fresh from a local meat producer and even if a finger was lost the grinder would have just ground it into the meat.

I worked at Wendy's back in the day, for chili meat they just use hamburgers that have been on the grill too long and are too dried out to serve, I cannot see how a finger would get in there.

It was a fraud. The woman's husband bought the finger tip from a coworker at a zoo (where there had been a mishap).
 
Ichinisan should probably talk about that jumbo V8 Vegetable Juice he bought back in the early 2000s, but he isn't, so I guess I will:
We were both working at the same place and he brought in a rather large bottle of V8 to split (not your typical single-serving size but also not the plastic jug). He removed it from the fridge, opened it fresh, and began pouring it into a small disposable cup when he noticed it was lumpy. We looked closer and found what looked like skin with maybe fur. It was probably bits of a mouse or rat.

Campbell's sent us a padded return envelope with some coupons for some free stuff, expecting us to return it in the envelope. We told them before they sent anything that this was a jumbo glass bottle that would never fit in an envelope but they didn't listen. We had no reasonable way to send it back without spending more than they compensated us. We relayed this to them and never got a response so it sat in the freezer for a year. From their perspective they never got confirmation and probably think we made it up for free stuff.

I would have just sent the rat and as much of the V8 as you can fit in the envelope. Maybe crush the can and fit it in there too. Might need to line it with plastic lol.

Because it was a large glass bottle, not a can. 🙂

I recall it was almost as big as the plastic jugs they sell... definitely over a liter and maybe a half-gallon. Even if they sent a bubble mailer big enough it likely would have just shattered. Point is, they didn't listen to us and sent a bubble mailer barely big enough for their 12oz bottles.

You are remembering incorrectly.

It really had nothing to do with you. I did not buy it "to split," though I would not be opposed to sharing it. I bought it for me to consume over time, as I always did. I poured the first glass, and discovered the unidentified mass.

It wasn't some in-between size. It was the largest-size you can typically find in a supermarket. Probably the exact same size you can find today.

I never rinsed-off or examined the lump. I poured it right back into the bottle and never poured it out again. I never saw fur. I never determined if it was plant material or not. I only speculated that a partial rodent carcass was one possibility (there was no way to tell what it was or wasn't while it still had tomato juice all over it).

It was a large plastic bottle. Basically the same large bottle they still sell at supermarkets.
