Sick!

I was eating a bag of chips and I found this stuff inside!
I don't know what to do, do I call the company, or what?

These are the pics of the so called corn chips.
On the left is the weird chip and on the right is a normal one.

You could try sending the photos back to the company. Or taking them back to the place you bought them from and asking for your money back.

I was in the pub last night and there were these horrible black bits in the ice in my drink. I took the drink back and got another one. The bar staff were staring at the ice cubes. I bet though they served the rest of the same ice out hoping no one noticed.

Just because it is not round doesn't mean it isn't good.

I called Frito-Lay and I discribed what these mouldy suckers looked like.
The lady asked me information from the side, experation date, barcode, ECT.
I read the information she asked about then she politely said she would send me coupons for another bag of chips
and a bag with an envolope so I can send the old stuff back.
She said have a nice weekend and I said thanks, you too.

Too bad, I thought they might do something bigger then a replacement bag of chips. The 2 inch squar looks like it was scraped from the factory floor.

I actully told her it looked like it was scraped from the factory floor.

I don't know, can I sue their asses?
Atleast, I'd like a case of chips.

Did you by any chance eat any of the chips in that bag before you saw that thing? If you did and you get sick then you would have a case.

That thing you found there is awful... I'm really curious to know what it is...

Speaking of disgusting things found in food stuff, here they sell cereals in a small plastic sorta bowl for a one meal, my friend once found a nail there... A human finger nail

Definition of wanting something for nothing; or a mountain for a molehill of inconvenience.

You were eating oily deep fried chips pumped full of preservatives and crap, and NOW you're concerned about something icky being ingested?

^ That's true.
Anyway, you could sue if you get sick, but I wouldn't try to look for reasons to sue them.
Personally, I think I would have ended up eating that thing anyway...
EDIT: Ok, I just saw the second-to-last picture. Not even I would eat that! But still, I say it's no harm done, just a benign mistake by the company.

Man, I would be totally disgusted to find that in a bad of chips, but I would probably just eat around the gross bits. I'm too lazy to do otherwise.

Yeah really dude, chuck out the bag and go buy another one. How much does a bag of crisps cost, anyway?

Thatīs nothing. A few months ago there was this big media scandal about this guy who found mice tails in his pizza (which came from the largest Norwegian producer of frozen pizzas, the kind that "everyone buys"). Now -that- is gross.

You're going to sue because they had a machine malfunction? That's it?

Valrvn,

That reminds me when I found a live Slug in a bag of salad from a supermarket, the bag of salad and its invertabrate stowaway went straight back to the supermarket with a complaint. Finding that Slug in the salad put me of salad for a month !!!.

Just a month? Hearing that story put me off salad for a year.

I worked at a Wendy's for a few months while in school and they had a bug infestation, they were like beetles except they were really long and skinny, you'd find them in the veggies at the sandwich station (you'd catch the bugs and kill/put them outside, but they'd get mad if you threw out the veggies the bug was on), even when a guy found one in his salad they didn't do anything about the bugs. They just gave him a bunch of coupons for free food.

And that restaurant won a sparkly award for being so clean :S

Also years ago there were reports of people finding maggots in their raisins, and a guy at a KFC near me got caught jacking off in the mayo.

I wonder if you send them back they'll just throw them into another bag of chips?

Mice tails are totally gross.

I heard a 'story' that one of my sisters friends found a beak in a chicken nugget. Another of my mums friends found a dead mouse in a bottle of milk.
