A dark, course hair sticking out of a piece of Feta Cheese, I was eating at a waterfront café in Piraeus, Greece. Its the only time any food turned me off in Greece. I don't mind ants or other bugs in my food but for some reason, human hair gives me the creeps.

Once as a kid, I got a locally made chocolate candy with nuts. It was in summertime before air conditioning was common. There were evidently 'eggs' in the nuts that hatched into maggots. Totally disgusting when you bite into something and find them instead of deliciousness!

LOL One time, I accidentally took a sip of Dr. Pepper out of a can that, unbeknownst to me, somebody had been using as an ashtray and "butt can" (putting their finished cigarette butts in).... Trust me, it was a horrible taste experience I'll never forget.

One time I found a roach crawling around in a bag of Doritos that I was snacking on. I got a "French Fried" Cockroach in some fries I got at a Walgreen's lunch counter in the early 70's when many Walgreens still had lunch counters, I wasn't turned off, I just put it to the side. I did stop eating there when I got sick on a greasy brownie, puking for 2 days just made me not want to eat at Walgreens again.

I recently bit into a peanut m&m and was shocked when, what should have been a peanut crunching between my teeth, turned out to be something very, VERY chewy (immediately made me think of a tough hunk of beef fat). Thinking of that fat, I was almost afraid to look at it, for fear it would be something gross like that, but, of course, I just HAD to find out what it was...... Turned out to be a small chunk of what I'm guessing is a piece of rubber (or some other synthetic material), that I'm assuming came off a piece of equipment used in producing their candy. Somehow it must have 'broken off' a larger piece, and not only ended up with the peanuts, it then got covered in chocolate, and coated with that hard, outer candy-coating, and, of course, then went right into a bag with all the rest of the candy. I was curious to see if Mars (the m&m candy corporation) would want to know about it, so I called their 1-800 number to bring it to their attention, and, yadda-yadda-yadda, I am now waiting for the mailer they have sent out to me to return not only the piece of rubber (or whatever the synthetic material was) I originally bit into, but also the small, "fun size" bag it came out of, and, most importantly (because it has all the specific production "codes" printed on it for that particular lot of candy) the larger plastic bag that all the "fun size" bags were shipped/sold in. I find myself wondering if they'll include a coupon for either a discounted, or, better yet, a FREE package of their candy. Though they've already 'apologized' for my nearly swallowing this, I'll know just how TRULY "sorry" they REALLY are, if they actually back it up with a freebie !! SAVE FERRIS

Had a nice big worm in the middle of an artichoke at a restaurant. Had a bee crawl out of my soda can onto my lip while I was drinking it. Cereal with bugs more than once.

Flour and many grains have insect eggs in them, after a certain amount of time they will eventually hatch into weevils or little white larvae. They won't hurt you, its just not pleasant. I often kept a box of cheerios around too long and ended up with the little white "worms" and flour gets buggy on me since I rarely use it.

My daughter peeled open a small tub of Hunt's chocolate pudding and it was all moldy. We took pictures and offered to send them to the company but they just sent us LOTS of coupons! And the customer service rep was truly grossed out.

Yes, one time, I ordered lo mein from a Chinese restaurant and I've found a piece of hair in it. Never went back to that restaurant again.
Second time, I was eating oatmeal cookies, and when I looked on the cookie real good I saw some ants crawling on it.
Third time, I went to my freshman orientation at my college. The orange juice that they served as refreshments, I kept seeing pieces of hair in the drink. Didn't drink that much of it, once I saw the hair in it.

My Chinese restaurant story is more gross, and I should say that I love Chinese food, and yes, the old-style Cantonese kind. It was in a Chinatown; a full meal, complete with pork fried rice and eggroll. The meat in the rice was,--I would swear under threat of death, even after a shot of whatever they use for truth serum today--a wild animal's meat. It was not pork, and I doubt it was from a wild pig, either. Oddly, my dinner companion didn't seem to notice or simply wasn't paying attention,--NOT PAYING ATTENTION! --the mind boggles. After a few bites I, well, took the meat out, placed it in a handkerchief and set it on the table; folded it up, I should add. I didn't want to gross anyone out. Then I called the waiter over, told him that the meal was unacceptable, literally inedible, and I was sending it back and didn't want a replacement. Nor was I going to pay for anything. The waiter was polite but neither apologetic nor gracious. Shortly thereafter, we left the place. I can't even remember the name of the restaurant; and I'm good with names. What impresses me about this incident is how young I was at the time. No more than twenty-five. If I do say so myself, my behavior was ballsy for such a young guy. I'm not an aggressive person. Not passive, just not more assertive than I need to be to get something done.
(p.s.: As I told the person I was with, the meat in that meal must have come from a dog or a rat. There's no way it came from a barnyard animal.)

An upholstery tack in a "blue box," of Kraft Mac 'n Cheese. It was in among the macaroni elbows, so fortunately I saw it when I was pouring the pasta into the water. It was a long time, before I bought it, again. But, I have had it, since.
