Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Now this is one of the weirdest food recalls you'll ever see.
A teen in Omaha found a big clamp inside a Fit & Active frozen dinner. And this wasn't just inside the box, it was actually on top of the sesame chicken meal itself, underneath the plastic (see photo on the right). The Aldi grocery store chain took all of the dinners off of their shelves and officials are going to investigate the matter to see if any further action has to be taken.
When I first saw the picture I thought it was some sort of lock that came with the meal so dieters could lock their refrigerators so they wouldn't overeat.

I used to build metal detectors for food and drug companies, and the stories about what was found in some foods before they had detectors (or if they had malfunctioning detectors) was enough to put me off certain foods for life.
There's everything from disintigrating chains and blades, to entire components falling into product. It's unfortunate, but wherever you have equipment or people in the vacinity of foods, there's the chacne that something unwanted will find its way into the product eventually.
