Geno, you forgot about Breakfast Cereal. 😬[/quote] Don't think it was on that list. But I doubt it's any better. Besides, it's only a few pieces of "insect parts" or "rodent filth".

I came in from the garage tonight and found a lady bug on my neck. I put it into a empty beer can. Later I picked the can up, it felt like there was a swig left and I took a drink that tasted weird. I checked, the bug is still in the can, urp. Not as bad as grabbing the pop can we used as an ashtray during a barracks poker game back in the day. That one I actually can top. I was shearing up near Ivanhoe in the 80's with Grazcos and hutting it with a fellow called Thistle (Tim Hennila), Thistle spent all night butting his cigarettes out in a mostly empty bottle of VB (he was on the piss). About five in the morning I woke up and watched him reach across, grab the bottle and scull the contents...butts and all...and didn't even know he had done it. Now that really turned my stomach. Funny fellow Thistle, he could be on the piss for a week and shear all day as crook as a dog...then could go for a s hit and be as right as rain and healthy as a bull. He and Woodsy spent a few years living under the bridge at Louth whilst shearing around the district and pissing it up. Every now and then they would move to the other side for change of view, and when it flooded they moved to the top of the bridge with all the other town residents as it was the only dry spot that wasn't under water for miles around. I do recall they refused to live at the dump in a car body as they believed that it was beneath them, which I thought was very funny. He eventually killed himself by drinking himself to death, Woodsy on the other hand is still in town and doing well on the pension. added, I can still picture that bottle and the mess it contained.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Gotta tea spoon sized dollop of grease in my mouth from the last chug outta soda can. I believe they use food grade grease on the machinery around canning operations so not a true concern. Haven't drank from a can since, gotta have a clear bottle.
Got the corner of a plastic bag in a fork full of mashed potatoes at a Chillies resturant. Spit it out and got the manager whom told me it was cut from the bag they squeeze the potatoes out of. It was a believable enough explanation for me. He gave me 5 bucks off the meal and took the plastic to the kitchen to chew some azz.
Probably plenty of disastrous schit I've never know about but that holds true for all of us.

And that is the way some restaurants get their mashed taters. Came out of the Sierras on a 90 mile trek with Scouts. Bunch of HS aged kids. Used to hit the grocery stores in Bridgeport, Bishop, Lone Pine and such depending on where we came out. Everyone tired of dehydrated food after 10 days or so. Buy up stuff like dill pickles, just for a different taste than Chili Mac Buddy goes in, comes out with a whole angel food cake. Eats all but a few bites on one side, they were moldy. Goes back in the store and looks like he's going to toss it back up. They give him another cake. He comes out and says "I saw the mold on it, figured I'd get my money back or another one!"

Had a small chunk of broken glass in my asada burrito last week from the local taqueria… not happy about that but will still go back as the food is amazing.

For me it's just been a few hairs over the years, but for a lady nearby (Williamsport) the other day, she got a deep fried chicken head with her order of wings. She took it well, and the news stations had fun with it.

The Stockman’s restaurant in Montpelier Idaho back in the mid 90’s bit into my dinner salad, something rolling around in there didn’t feel the same as the rest. Reached into the mouth, and pulled out…a used bandaid,

Yeah, his honesty went a long ways with me, he didn't have to tell me he was aware of where it came from. Instant denial is a more common response. It does add more definition to Chillies "loaded mashed potatoes" as it's listed on their menu. Rare for me to eat at any chain type resturants, just met a friend there at the bar and conversation and drinks ran into dinner time so I ordered their Ribeye with plastic on the side.

In Puerto Ángel in 1972 there was a restaurant table with 1,000 flies.
I pointed that out to the Mexican I was with, and he said, "Those are clean flies."

A bloody bandaid in a Chinese buffet.

Black folk used to do that in Wendy’s when I was 16. Bring the final 2 bites of a double-cheese burger. “Yo playa dis got a hairra in its” Not always some were polite and would only 2/3 😃 Lol I fix em another one no questions ax’d. It wasn’t gonna be that told Grape Ape that no one back here has hair like that. 😃

My Dad got a bottle of Sprite (glass) out of a vending machine with a complete book of matches inside. That was in the early 1970's. We kept that bottle on a shelf for 30 or so years.
When I was a kid, I found a brown spongy-looking thing in a KFC chicken breast. Dad took one look, and said it was a lung. I didn't eat any KFC for years after that.

Zaxby's chicken sandwich 3 years ago had glass shards. Broke a crown on it. Made a quick $22k off it without a lawyer. Apparently the cook (groid) splashed grease or something on the heat lamp and it busted. He picked off a few pieces but didn't get them all. I bit down on the sandwich and right into the glass. Luckly I was sitting right under one of the security cameras so it was caught on tape as I immediately opened up the sandwich and plain as day was the glass shards. I took pictures then asked for a manager. Took about 4 days for me to get the check 😎
