What do you do? Assume a big enough hair that is clearly noticeable, possibly wrapped around or entangled on something.

You've ordered delivery and find a hair in your food... (1 Viewer)

Not an ideal situation but it's just a ####### hair and most likely it will be a huge hassle to deal with calling them. I remove the hair and eat the food and go on with life.

This.
When I worked at a movie theater waaaaay back in HS, this woman brings back a tub of popcorn making this over-dramatic gagging sound because she said there was a hair in her popcorn. Demanding her money back for the popcorn, tickets, free passes, the works. When I brought up the fact that none of the guys that worked behind the snack counter had hair that long (I had a buzz, and the other guy had extremely short hair as well) but it seemed to match the length and color of hers, she stammered something and ran away.
*sigh* I miss the simpler times.

This hair, long and straight or short, kinky, and curly?

It's just hair. Take it out and eat the food, Upton Sinclair.

call the place immediately and tell them there's a big ####### hair knotted in your food. I'm not eating that.
Usually they're apologetic and send the food right out. We've had owners of restaurants in our hood do it themselves (and bring an extra something-something) if their delivery guys are busy. but if they're silent, defensive or otherwise not sympathetic to some kind of reparation- either immediate replacement of food, or future- then tell them you won't be ordering from them again and will take your story to Yelp, etc.
every now and then we get a restaurant that sends a wrong dish. 1/10 of those will try to tell us that that's what we ordered. yeah... right- we intentionally ordered something we didn't want just to #### with you and not get to eat. makes sense.
eta: my post makes it sound like this happens to us a bunch... I can't remember one time, tbh. was referring to other problems with the order.

Is that what you teach them? I had a kid tell the cafeteria manager that Mr MOP said we could exchange food if we found a hair in something.
With how you present yourself, I can guarantee you've eaten a lot worse than a hair in your food.

They bring an extra something-something and there's probably a little extra something-something in the replacement food....and it isn't hair.

I need to know first if this is is a ghetto/projects type delivery joint or a fancy gentrifier establishment.

Likely toss the food and eat something out of the pantry. I love too far away to have another order arrive in time.

I operate under the assumption that what I don't see doesn't hurt me. I'm sure over the years I've eaten plenty of hairs of varying sizes that I didn't see as I ate, and I've lived to tell about it. The "entangled" part of the OP is kind of gross as far as a mental picture but I'd just pick that part out and go on eating assuming the dish is salvageable in the new form.
Unless it's clearly a pube...then I'm out. There's no coming back from that.

Years ago a friend and I were at Hardee's and he took a bite of his burger. After swallowing he said something and I noticed a hair (not ours) stuck in between his two front teeth.
I was in tears.

I went on a trip to six flags about 20 years ago with about 10 friends and girlfriends. We stayed at a hotel, ate breakfast the next morning and one of the girls had a hair in her food. She ran to the restroom and threw up.
I could see being grossed out to an extent, but that seemed over the top.
Me... I'd just pick it off, maybe/probably avoid eating whatever it touched if possible and move on. If I had multiple issues with that restaurant, I'd just quit eating there.

If depends on what I'm eating; if it's a pizza or something, 
I just wouldn't eat the slice with the hair on it.
If it's noodles/saucy dish :X and there's a hair soaked with it, trash.
Also - I'd never call and complain about it (god knows what I'll get the 2nd time around). I live in the city so I would just call up another place.
I think it's a bigger statement to never order from a place again (or for a long time until I'm not grossed out at the thought anymore of eating there).

Removing hair and adjacent food, eat the remaining, hope for the best.

remove hair, eat food. Can't imagine a hair causing contamination issues with the food. Imagine all of us have unknowingly eaten far more disgusting things in our food.

I carry an 18 can capacity igloo in every morning in one hand and a big ole cup of Starbucks in the other, have no use for the pig slop passed off as food there. I will take a choc milk though.
I bring in enough food for 2 days in case I get stuck there. That's a joke but I don't like to leave my classroom for much of anything. There were so many teachers that quit I asked for a new room with floor to ceiling windows. Our school was originally a furniture store if you can believe it, charter school of course.

This "Florida" you speak of, is a magical and mysterious place.
