While pulling the piece of bay leaf out of my mouth, I reflected back, at all the things I have seen, or experienced in food. At the top of the list is a tooth.

Please share.

@alex240101,
I thankfully have never had anything that interesting - a hair once at a restaraunt was fairly traumatizing - but I recovered quickly. Of course - I didn't know if it was mine or someone elses - still...ew

I once bit into a sandwich made with a store's brand bread. It tasted odd. Held it off a bit to have a look. Rat droppings embedded in the crust. I tell you, it spoiled my meal.

We were eating breakfast at a hotel in Oak Ridge Tenn. My lab partner was eating pancakes and discovered half a roach. He assumed that he consumed the other half, actually I slipped the Yuk Yuk roach onto his pancakes and then said "whats that on yer pancakes?"
He fukkin freaked, and was sick foe the rest of the day. I told him on the plane home and he didnt speak to me for like a week.
You can buy many of these rubber insect parts at novelty stores and if you cut them in half, the laughs come quickly.

I once was eating lunch with my boss at a construction site. He was having a bite of a sandwich, when a bee flew in between his teeth right when he bit down. I swear I saw the bee chopped in half in the instant it took for him to realize and spew the food and insect out of his mouth. I laughed heartily, but poor old boss went off a ways and began throwing up. I felt bad for him but could not quit chortling.

a staple in the rice at one of the posher Indian restos in town

when I pointed it out to the waiter, he matter-of-factly told me that it probably came from the rice bag. mmmm yeah okay. I won't be back, and I'll tell everyone I know locally not to come here.

I haven't gone back and I do tell people. A little more concern on the part of the waiter wouldn't have come amiss.

@edgarblythe,
I understand. I once took a swallow of spoiled chocolate milk. Haven't had any interest in chocolate milk since.

Great Stories.
Was with a buddy at Taco Bell. He was eating an enchirito. When we finished, I noticed a tine was missing from the plastic fork.
