Nick Tessla Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Been reading a "news" story on the other warrington news site - some bloke whinging about finding a snail in a bag of broccoli - found it very reassuring how unsymapthetic the comments have been.

Cleopatra Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Tesco apologized three times with gift coupons and he still wasn't satisfied. Think he was fishing for a lump sum of money but Tesco just got peed off with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 When I read stories like this I just wonder what the worlds coming to. I can’t believe that anyone could be so stupid as to not to understand that broccoli grows in a field. Also while the quality and freshness of can vary, I’ve never heard the term “faulty” broccoli being used. What an utter pillock!

Cleopatra Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Don't know why he is griping about it. Even he, or his wife, put it in the pan and cooked it before it was found, and didn't they bother to wash it before cooking, even though it was prepacked?

Peter T Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Surely, the important thing is that they didn't get charged extra for meat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

algy Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 DON'T READ THIS IF YOU ARE HAVING COD FOR YOUR NEXT MEAL. I think the worst experience we had having 'unwanted' extras in food was when we sat down to our evening meal of excellent fresh white cod that had been boiled, our daughter let out such a scream and there wriggling out of her cod was a pink parasitic worm, needless to say everyone's cod hit the bottom of the waste bin and was off the household menu for quite a while and to this day my wife always holds fresh fish up to the light and inspects it. No one to blame there then. Found this example on You Tube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Ooooh Algy I had salmon for my tea last night and I'm suddenly feeling rather queazy As for the person with the baby snail in his broccoli.... three good will gesures and a refund... seems more than enough for me so why go to the press now ? The poor little snail had been frozen so it would have been dead anyway so wouldn't have eaten much and then to boiled too well really not worth worrying about. Just goes to show that green veg is not always as good as a meaty pizza or a curry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter T Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 The salmon get a Hydrogen Peroxide wash whilst still in the farming pens at sea. This kills the little buggars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Had some sea snails once, much preferable to broccoli! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Not much meat on a snail. Perhaps he was disappointed that he didn't find a lamb chop in his bag of broccoli instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleopatra Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Well one snail in a bag of broccoli is accidental a whole bagful could be sabotage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted December 14, 2011 Report Share Posted December 14, 2011 Would she have been as vocal if she had bought a bag of snails and found a piece of broccoli in there I wonder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
