weird items that have been in our food

Years ago in my home town, back in the days milk was shipped in milk cans. The dairy use to send calanders out to their farmer clients, and of all places in the returning empty milk can. We had a neighbor, spoke broken French-English. He didn't notice the calander, filled the can with milk and shipped it. Next day the dairy returned his can full of milk, no explanation. The farmer seeing that the can came back full, removed the cover to see what was wrong. He said, "I see this thing bobin in milk, I reach in an grab, !@@#%$%^%^&$$%^^$$%^&^&***(((((%%% ka lander." He puts the cover back, put the can out for truck next morning along with several other cans. By h!@#$@$$ me, the can come back empty, I git paid.

Another story I heard about a note tied to the returning milk can, "Mr. Jones, would you be so kind as to put the manure and milk in separate cans and we will mix as we see fit." Signed manager, Bordens Dairy. To which the farmer wrote back, " Dear Sir, your hand writing on our contract was so poor, I thought I was shipping you manure. It seemed like an awfully good price for manure, thus I thought I should add the milk, so as to allow you some chance for profit." Signed Farmer Jones.

Last year, anyone recall the baby snapping turtle in the folgers coffee, the lady kept it and froze it. Katrina apparently did some damage to the folgers plant, and I thought that is what I read was the cause.

Found a baby mouse in the bottom of a soda bottle.

Hairball in a package of hotdogs.

package of buns that looked like it had those chocolate sprinkles in it, and looked like a mouse chewed on a couple of the buns.

There are others I'm sure, but I haven't been over for dinner in a while!

But I personally have bought string cheese and soda pop from the local gas station only to find mold on it (sometimes before opening the package.)

Kinda reminds me of the local dairy years ago. The old man died and the boys were left to run the business. Seems they were a little lax with washing the bottles as customers "complained" of finding money in their milk. (for the younger set, that was in the days when customers would leave their payment in the empty bottles left on the porch)
Oh yeah, and more recently, a freind was eating some muti-grain bread and he found a spiklet (joint) of jointed goat grass!
