Whether you were eating at home, at a friend's house or at a restaurant, what is the nastiest thing or downright weirdest thing you have ever found in your food (hair, fingernail, bug etc)? Have you ever found anything in a food product you brought home from the store? How did you react? If it was in a restaurant meal, what did you do about it, if anything? Let's share!

has anybody found a fingernail in their food? that's weird! i did find a small cockroach in my food. imagine that! we were dining at a japanese restaurant. i ordered a rice topping. as i was munching through my food, i noticed a small cockroach! of course i freaked out. good thing i didn't put it in my mouth. that would be gross. if i remember it right, we still paid for what we ate. they should have just let us go for free. eeew. never went back to that restaurant.

When I was younger, my mom took us out for pizza and on my small cheese pizza there was, quite literally, a fingernail clipping. We sent it back and they replaced it, but I didn't eat it. I still can't handle cheese pizzas.

I have found a curly hair in my food. I also had a piece of wire in my food that I almost swallowed. My brother once found half a bug in his salad.

When I was dining in Warisan in Bali, I found a small piece of glass in my ice cream. I thought it was ice but when I tried putting it in my mouth, it wouldn't melt. I did what every normal customer would do...I ask the waitress to come and have a look. She came, looked at the glass and took the whole cup of ice cream away and never came back.

I too have found glass in my food. Make you wonder where in the world it came from doesn't it? Thanks for the nice response :)
