The final nail... in the loaf

When you bite into a loaf of bread, the thing that you would least expect to find is a rusty nail. A British man found exactly that, however, in a loaf he purchased from an Asda supermarket in Dorset.

Chris Lambie was sitting at the dinner table with his teenage daughter when he discovered the nail. Fortunately, though he actually bit into it, the rusty nail did not cut or injure him in any way.

Lambie contacted the local consumer protection agency and filed a complaint at the store, where he turned in the loaf. The loaf was subsequently lost by the store, which apologized profusely to the man and stated that they will be "calling Mr Lambie to discuss this with him in further detail" while they launch an investigation. The loaf came from a mix that is supplied to Asda and the manufacturer has been contacted, but no similar incidents have been reported.
