Finding a hair in my fries!


Quote  |  Reply
I've been really good at making the right food choices every day but yesterday ten of us went for lunch and i ordered fries.  When they are done properly they are so delicious and I only wanted a few anyway.
I put a forkful of fries in my mouth only to realize there was a hair in my mouth!  It will be a while before I order fries again!

one time when I was a kid, I ordered fries and gravy.  I got a bonus of some protein.  There was a cockroach trying to crawl out of the gravy.  Another time a few years ago, I bit into a jelly donut and started to chew when something pierced my gum.  It was an ear ring stud.
ewwww! a friend of mine found a razor blade in a pot noodle 
gosh, you guys. ^^

i think i'm going to just stop eating things made by other people, heh. i am seriously grossed out, but i don't have any horror stories at the moment. *knock on wood*
I once had a cockroach inside a biscuit I bit into at a restaurant.  I showed the waitress and she told me she would get me a new one - YEAH RIGHT!! I really wanted to eat more after that - it was all I could do to keep from tossing my breakfast right there on the table.
ew this is turning out just like the gross fast food stories thread. so gross - if i ever get hungry and need a deterent i'll click here haha
I got a cup of chili one time with a huge 2-inch long bug with wings.  I don't know what it was.  When I showed the employee, they didn't even apologize OR EVEN OFFER ME SOMETHING ELSE! They just took the cup back!
I once ate at a shady restaurant in some shady area. Not until I sat down I realized there were rats running around inside the restaurant! I was horrified and I jumped onto a chair. The waitress laughed and said "it's ok, they are hungry too rite? rat it's almost our trademark. "

And then even the worse, a customer who was eating alone responded back "yeh, rats need to feed their stomach too you know"....

I never went inside a shady restaurant since then.....LOL....
i was at a chinese food restaurant and I saw a rat crawling throughout the case.  eww! I'll never go back there again.  I couldnt even eat the food that I just got to go. Waste of money but I really didnt want to say anything to the lady.  I noticed it after i paid and was on my way out.

At mc donalds my ex boyfriends mom bit into her sandwich only to get close to the end of it and notice the bottom of the bun was GREEN with mold.  HELLO mc donalds! Pay some attention!  They only gave her a new sandwich.

At subway my brother got a blade in his meat ball sandwich. Already mentioned that one in the fast food form but I still cant believe it!

I went to olive garden a few weeks ago and there was a hair in my salad. UGH! I was really disapointed since i love OG.

Lots of hair stories.
I work in a hotel and yes, stuff like that does happen. However, I wouldn't worry too much about rats and cockroaches, they've been around forever and no country will ever get rid of them (London is the rat capital of the world).

Personally, I am more concerned about the things I don't see: herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, heavy metals. That stuff is going to do you a lot more harm than a hair or two.
We watched a show on tv last night called chef attack on reality tv.  It was so disgusting I couldn't even eat my own home cooked dinner for at least an hour afterward.  The things people do to other people's food is gross.  I used to own a restaurant and have worked in them for years, that is why I hardly ever eat in them anymore.
When I was about 7 years old, I saw a segment on t.v. that showed a restaraunt where the people would make food for them with either dead or live cockaroaches. And the customers loved it. DISGUSTING!! I almost threw up my dinner that night after watching just a bit of it. I hate roaches. Last time I saw one, I sprayed it with bug killer for like 2 mintues straight. (I had it trapped in a hole in the wall.) I made sure it wouldn't be able to leave the inside of that wall for many hours. It then came out later in the night and it was soo slowed down by the poison that my bro. was able to stomp on it and kill it. TG that I didn't see it's dead body. Iwas told about that part later the next day.
hanno, london the rat capital of the world? yeah maybe in the days of plague...
laulise, take a look here: http://www.encams.org/home/newsdetail.asp?nw= 146

Rat population in Britain is estimated at 60 Million.

I see a hair, I take it out. I continue eating. *Shrugs* I worked in a restraunt, hair is no big deal-e-oooooo

eeewwwww puke!

Yes, rats need to eat too, that is probably the attitude that killed off most of Europe from the Black Death.

I would totally sue on half of those things you guys listed. A razor blade?!?!?!?

Hairs in fries are quite common - thanks Micky D's for starting that trend. I can't tell you how many times that's happened to me in the past.

Also, I once saw a worker at the D's drop a burger (unwrapped) on the ground and then pick it up, wrap it in the paper, and set it down on some poor guy's tray.

At least it wasn't something that looked like a pubic hair.

I'd like to see more stories like this one, I think it would help motivate people to start fixing their own meals!

There is also nothing like a hepatitis A outbreak because some employee decides not to wash his/her hands.

 

I once found a french fry in my hair.

 

Mind you, I had really big hair at the time, and there a was a food fight in the cafeteria the day before.
