I remember back in primary school, the teacher sent us off to get drinks from the water fountain after PE, since we were all hot and sweaty and icky. I was lining up behind a friend, who was drinking enthusiastically. She lifted her head to swallow and take a break, but her finger was still on the push button for the fountain. She was just in time too.

The next moment, an insect that was a cross between a spider and a cockroach came crawling out of the fountain spout. We all screamed and ran away. I didn't use that fountain again for two years.

I've had a number of gross food-related things happen to me. Here are a few:


At a pool/tennis club my family's a member of, there's a soda vending machine. One day, I bought a can of Sprite. I drank half of it, then left it by my chair so I could swim. About fifteen minutes later, I come back, sit down, take a small sip and- OMG WHAT THE HECK BUZZING AAAAAH!!! O_O!

Bees decided to take up residence in my soda. Wonderful. I've rarely drinken Sprite since, and if it's the summer and I'm outside, I always cover my soda with a towel or something. >_<



Not as gross as everything else, but I used to looove pineapple pizza. One night, my dad orders pizza, I say I want a few slices of pineapple, it's delivered, I take a large bite of one of my pineapple pizza slices and immediately spit it out. The restaurant we ordered from apparently thought we ordered a few slices of pineapple and OMG EW RED PEPPER pizza. I HATE peppers. I now hate pineapple pizza, as well, thanks to that little mix-up. Bleh.



'Kay, here's a maggot story. =D

I was recruited to clean out my family's food pantry a few months ago. So I'm sorting through the expired and not expired food and lo and behold, about half of all the food had maggots in it. Most were dead. Some weren't. I actually found a sealed bag of rice that had a squirming, green and most definitely ALIVE maggot in it.

Now, I'm scared to death of all creepy-crawlie things. So I was all, "EEP WHACKWHACKWHACK DIIIIEE MAGGOT MINION OF VOLDEMORT AND SAURON DIEEEEE AAAAH *SCREAMWITHFEARANDRAGE*". It didn't die, so I looked around for a knife to stab the bag with and throw it in the trash. Couldn't find a knife and decided that would make Maggot Minion Rice spill all over floor and on my feet, so picked up the edge of the bag with the tips of my fingernails and slammed it into the trashcan.

I then proceeded to spray down every single shelf in that pantry with heavy-duty cleaning detergent. Which was followed by my running upstairs and hiding in my room, eye twitching. (Okay, so maybe my eye wasn't twitching. But that maggot was freaky, man.)



About two or three years ago, I got out some ice cream from our freezer and ate some. I left the rest of what I'd taken out in the bowl, on the kitchen counter and read for a little while. After that little while, I went back and got my ice cream. It had melted by then, so I slurped a bit of it before discovering that there were ants all over the bowl and ice cream. I'd somehow forgotten that it was summer, there were ants everywhere in summer and that those summer ants liked their food sugary and, well. Sugary. So I ate a bunch of ants. Fun.



Another ant story, sorry.

One day, I ate some mashed potatoes because I love mashed potatoes and potatoes are yummy. =D Anyway. I also like pepper, so I ground some onto my mashed potato yummyness. I noticed that one thing of pepper I'd ground onto my food was bigger than the others and then OMG IT MOVED. BECAUSE IT WAS OMG AN ANT ACK.

Since then, I've always hit the pepper-grinder onto the kitchen counter before grinding, just to make sure no ants had gotten into the pepper. Eww.



Lastly. When I was in elementary school, we had really good food served to us for lunch. One of the things we had on occasion was white rice. So, one day we had white rice. We were eating happily, and then my now ex-best friend made a stunning announcement. There was a dead bug in her rice. It was shaped like a rice grain/kernel/whatever, but it was quite obviously a bug, with segments and legs and antennae and all. Ewww.

Eww GROSS ALEX! But that maggot story was funny lol.

I once found a cat hair in my soup. I think it was from my black cat, Blackie. I also found a little piece of wood in my roe and nearly choked on it. It came from one of those little wooden forks you get in fish and chip shops.

All of these stories will seem like nothing compared to this:

Ant story:

School - 2004

"Yo, Raman you gonna eat that?" said Maathusan. "Uh, no." Said Raman.
Maathusan didn't know that there would be something horrible in there. "Mmm....I love the taste of rice pudding! All soft and yummy and........hard and chewy and crunchy!" "EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!" He spit out the pudding and what did we see? Two halves of a cricket. Yum? We read the label and it said "Made in Japan" OMG, that was nasty.

Bee story:

School - 2003

"Ahh! Daniel! A bee!" cried Raman "OMG! AHHHHHHHHHHH!" yelled me. My mouth was open. It was open. Stinged really, kinda fuzzy, too. and very bloddy and "metal" flavoured.

Earwig story:

School - 2004

"Umm....Guys...Look what I found.." I said. "Yuck...EWW!" said everyone. As the earwig disappeared, I thought "Where'd it go?!" "Oh well."

Turns out the little bugger what in my sleve, waiting for lunch time. D'oh.

One time, I was eating a french fry and I found big huge peice of mold. >.< Some one kill me now. *barf*

OMG.

Well, one time my big sisters friend got a McChicken Sandwich from McDonalds and she ate about half of it then started to feel sick. So she wrapped the rest of it up and put it in the back of her car because she couldn't find a bin. But she went to her work. So at her work she started spewing all over the place. Her boss told her to go to the hospital so she drove her car to the A&E and when she got there she was pale as a sheet. The doctor took one look at her and admitted her to the ospital for tests. He asked her if she'd eaten anything and she told him about the McChicken Sandwich and how it was in her car. So the doctor wqent and got it and he found that the chicken had a large ulcer on it and my sisters friend had eaten half the ulcer. *Misses Mr. Green*

That's it. Nothing is sacred anymore *cries*

...What a lovely thread to read whislt I'm eating a bowl of veggie soup O.o

One time I opened my packet of starburst and the bottom sweet was really manky, squishy and dirty.

Someone once found a human finger in their bowl of baked beans...

Someone else also found a plaster/band-aid in something they were eating. I can remember these from somewhere. Dunno if it was off a tv programme or what.

Okay one day my dad ordered a pizza. We were all REALLY hungrey so we couldn't wait to eat it and then when he opened the box we saw this black spot on the pizza and found out it was a fly baked into the pizza. It was the most nasty thing I ever seen. Believe me by that time I wasn't hungrey anymore.

Aww... he's seeing things again... *coos*

Were you at like a restaurant? I would throw it in their faces and make odd faces at them.

Lol...no we were home, we had it delivered.

I've had a few mildly gross things happen to my food, mostly melee worms in my oatmeal. I'm fairly sure I didn't actually eat any, but if I did, I didn't notice and that's the way I prefer it. I've also had weird stuff like twigs and bark pieces drop into my drink when I'm outside so I've sort of developped this habbit swishing my drink around my mouth to make sure I have sipped anything I didn't mean to.

Then there was this time when I was six when my best friend ate cat food and started pretending she was a cat and she wouldn't stop and I though she was permanently stuck like that.
