Freaked me out. I thought it was a dried rotten leaf at first. I'd already eaten like half the bag and the "best by" date was 2 days ago, so that thing has been rotting in there for more than a week probably.
You got any stories?

One time I bought a pair of compression socks, and you wouldn't believe what I found in those.
That actually happened to me at a restaurant once, I had a side of spinach and found a grasshopper mixed in with it. It freaked me out. I showed the waiter and they gave me free dessert. Be careful with spinach.
a cockroach in some Chinese food
it was the most revolting discovery of my life
i still can't eat black bean sauce to this day
A bloody egg. Something slipped through QC at the egg plant.
Also, a small piece of metal in a Wendy's hamburger as a kid. Today would be a multi-million dollar lawsuit. I just let them know (seemed like it had fallen off some of their kitchen machinery).
A human tooth in a slice of Pizza.
A ring planted in braised beef for my B'day.
But rings contact lenses assorted nuts screws and such crop up in commercial kitchens. Not common place enough to be- well- common place but not odd enough to score a major event label. I doubt anyone working in a commercial retail kitchen for more than 2-3 years has not been around when something was found.
All USDA Inspected foods have to stay under various maximum insects part per thousand thresholds.
(OK Body parts might be a big deal major find)
Mayo in every sandwich my mom has ever made me even thought I always tell her I hate it. They never learn.
A staple in a power bar...
A used band-aid in some bagged salad...
A .22 caliber slug in a chicken mcnugget...
A fingernail in a slice of bread.
A big black dildo

Proof? I call b-llsh-t. If this happened, you should have (did you?) report it. Food producers and distributors have quality control mechanisms. If you saved the bag and called the company up, you could do some good. Maybe you could even get some compensation for your trouble.
But good thread topic, tho.
Two white maggots in a power bar. I'd already eaten half of it before I discovered them. Powerbar sent me a free t-shirt and a box of powerbars (+- 30 bars). I thought it was a sweet deal at the time.

Kipketer you sure are doing a good job of displaying your stupidity lately
Me and my brother found a mouse in a beer bottle. We took the empty with the still live mouse to the factory, in the hope of scoring a case of beer, but they accused us of putting a baby mouse in the beer bottle ourselves, and then raising it up to mouse adulthood.
Not true, by the way.

I was disgusted and threw the bag away immediately.
But it wasn't a health hazard, it's not like I found a squid ovary in there, just some stupid grasshopper at home in a bunch of leafy greens.
I'll never buy that brand again though.

Anonymous stalking coward strikes again. Doesn't want to specify his beef with me. Opines in threads about society. Apparently, in a message board on a distance running website, this jerk who has some unknown beef with me doesn't care to share in discussion about anything running related (don't ever see "you" there) or the many positive, happy discussions, fruitful sharing and inspiration I participate in (pertaining to running).

I'm not stalking you. This thread isn't about society. I don't have a beef with you.
Is there anything else you would like to be wrong about today?
Did you attempt to impart some mystical Asian wisdom to the Grasshopper?
