Worst thing you've ever found in your food? (1 Viewer)

I was in college so this was about 25 or so years ago.  A group of us went to an Arby's.  There was this guy in the back cutting the meat and I noticed he was laughing uncontrollably and I noticed he had something in his mouth, like he was eating candy or something, it just stuck out to me that the guy was obviously up to something.  We ordered our meals, we sit down to eat and when I bit into my sandwich I chomped into a half eaten peppermint candy.  F*cker!  It was really late (like 10:30 at night) it was an off campus Arby's, there was no manager, I was a kid so I didn't complain or anything.  I just spit it out the food, threw it away and never went back.  

 
Friend drank half a Snapple before the the huge preserved moth hit his lips. Other friend got a chicken sandwich from some fast food place that was still frozen solid.

 
Oyster bar in Destin... we were about halfway through a dozen when we started seeing these guys swimming in some of the oysters and the tray

NOPE. Out. 


Many many years ago buddies and I drunkenly hit taco bell late one night. Back on the porch at our house a buddy was mowing through something or other then noticed a booger stuck to the inside of the foil wrapper. His reaction was priceless in how it developed slowly.

First, a few moments of shock... silence.... he comments....we lean over and verify it's a booger, yep. He stares in shocked silence as start to laugh.... then the first convulsion rips through his body.. a dry heave accompanied by a horrible guttural sound. Then another. Then another... increasing in violence.

He leaps upward out of his chair, knocking it backward and almost stumbling himself as another heave rolls through his 6'5" frame... he begins that puke sprint... doubled over...right hand covering his mouth.... half eaten food still in his left hand oustretched from his body....lumbering to the edge of the deck as he convulsed from heave after heave. Finally he reached the edge of the deck and let fly a firehose of vomit, beer, and god knows what else he had consumed that evening. We are rolling in laughter and tears at this point. One guy falls backwards onto his back still in his chair unable to do anything but laugh out of control. 

Good times. 

 
i worked at a fast food joint for a while and you would make fries in batches and they had a time limit before you had to dump em and start over so if you were the only car in a drivethrough at night and you ordered like a minute before start over time on the fries i would just give you every fry we had in your bag sometimes that was a whole lotta fries brohans so lets just say i was spreadin the karma one fry at a time you ordered a small but you got swcersized take that to the bank bropper fans

 
Deep fried mouse in a basket of chicken and fries. Looked like it may have fallen in a long time before I got it.
isn't that the urban myth KFC story? 

for me- glass, a number of times. and pill bug in chinese food. the place wouldn't even comp my dish- claimed I put the pill bug in there myself, because... I carry pill bugs around to get free crappy and cheap chinese food.

 
A cat. Early 90s, a lady friend wanted to try Reno's first Vietnamese restaurant. My Mary was big on all Asian cuisines (mof, we were investors in Reno's first Thai joint) so i had a little knowledge and recommended the Five Spices Chicken. We get half in the bag - a restaurant tradition for me - by the time the entree comes, my boinkbuddy's sawing into it, about to put the first bite to her mouth, i say, "hold up, Princess" (i called her Princess cuz she actually thought the Princess & the Pea was about sleeping on the wet spot), "i don't think chicken has any flat bones" as there was on the plate. i'd eaten dog intentionally so i knew it wasn't that "i think what we have here is some kitty haunches" i had said no more than "ki..." before Princess leapt up like a superhero, bolted for the door yelling "YYYoooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuu mammafammas!" Turned at the door and barked once more in vintage western witch mode "MAMMAFAMMAS!!!!". Wouldnt go out or stay in with me after that, all for using the c-word at the table

meow that's a good story...

 
A small chunk of wood in my Smartfood.  Took photos of it and send a letter to Frito-Lay.  They sent me a letter of apology, a giant box filled with assorted snack foods, and 10 coupons for free Smartfood.  
The craziest thing here is Frito Lay makes "Smartfood"

 
I just remembered that I once found about a 3/4" length of metal wire in a burger from a local burger place in SF. 

It had been delivered to our office and when we alerted the restaurant about it they said "Oh, sorry."

If I had bit down on it or swallowed it, it would have been very bad.

 
oh right... I opened up a chobani yogurt and found a fuzzy golf-ball sized ball of something in it- may have been a piece of fruit, but I wasn't going near the thing. took a pic and emailed the company. they sent me half a dozen free yogurt coupons. I then asked them if they could send me some Fage coupons, but I still haven't heard back.

Hell if I know. Happened at local mom and pop home cooking style restaurant. Was my son's kids meal. Wife freaked out but I was cool with accepting our free meal. 

Sucks for me. The food there is really good and wife won't go back. My oldest son just thought it was a cool story to tell.

 
A still-glowing lightening bug in my ice cream cone. Dug at that sucker with my tongue for several minutes before realizing what it was.

Thought I had a fluorescent treat.  :kicksrock:

 
A fingernail in a supermarket prepared pizza bake at home pizza.

Bit into it. Felt it. Pulled it out, saw what it was and instantly threw it across the room. Disgusting.

 
A dead squirrel.

Of course, I had hunted, skinned, cleaned and cooked it myself...

...so perhaps, I carry more of the blame than the squirrel. :shrug:

Note: It was during an "Old Timey" camping/hunting trip where we had to live off the land for the week-end.

When I can use modern methods, my squirrel sammiches are pretty succulent.  :wub:

Band aid on pizza :X ? 
I worked at Peter Piper Pizza about 30 years ago. One day I had a band aid on my finger and was making pizzas. At the end of the night, the band aid was gone.

You weren't in a Peter Piper Pizza in Phoenix about 30 years ago were you?

Wasn't me.  Pizza Hut in NE Philly circa 1986

 
dead animal
Back in 1980/1981, at Northeastern University, a girl I was dating found part of a (dead, thankfully) mouse in the American chop suey she was eating in their cafeteria.

Yes, it paid for a goodly amount of her tuition from then on.

At Peter Piper a bandaid would probably be the best thing on that pizza.
