Secret Ingredient
I went to my parent's house for dinner. While eating the salad, I tasted some mint. I figured that my mom had gotten creative and added mint leaves to the salad. As I chewed, the texture seemed a bit odd. The more I chewed the more I came to realize that there was something terribly wrong. I pulled a wad of something out of my mouth and looked at it. It was used chewing gum, spearmint flavor.
I don't chew gum and neither does my dad. That left my mom as the culprit. I showed it to her and she started laughing hysterically. My dad thought it was funny as well. I thought it was funny too, but still, how did that happen? Did my mom spit out her gum in the salad?
The last time I found something disgusting in one of my mom's salads, it was a caterpillar. The time before that, it was a caterpillar again. The caterpillars upset me more than the gum, so I guess things are improving.
What surprises have you found in your food?

One time we went to a restaurant that had ants in the biscuits. Ewww.
My aunt always said, "What's worse than finding a worm in your fruit?........."
"Half a worm!!"
A used Bandaid.
I have never found anything, but I did get food poisoning a couple of times in restaraunts. Once from tomatoes and once from green beans. Not fun.
hair... a big wad of it. there is nothing else that can gross me out as much as that did... I almost threw up... to make it worse... it was my MIL's hair, she was offended that I didn't eat all of my food and abruptly got up from the table... I didn't have the heart to tell her that I found half of her scalp in my chicken... I still haven't told her.. I just said that I was sick.
May, I wish that I didn't have to keep eating them.
Connie, were they kind of like poppy seeds?
My heart, I have found half a worm on numerous occasions.
Anon, I once found a used bandaid in a can of fish. At least it was floating on top where it could be seen.
Gary, you're not looking hard enough. I bet there is lots of disgusting stuff in your food. :)
Madwag, I'm so used to eating hair and fur, that it wouldn't have bothered me. If the hair belonged to a stranger, than I would be upset.
