FOOD:2020-2021 Foreign objects in food. & oddities

 Really kind of tired of finding sharp objects like the plastic thing in French cut green beans.

Went to Whole Foods and got 2 bags of their cut green beans. and what happens. The end of the second bag there was this weird looking item. Looked like a tiny pine cone. So while I did not eat the "cone" I did finish the bag of beans. I figured it the first part of them didn't kill me I was good. I took photos of it in its frozen state. Then after a couple of days of it sitting on the wrapper on the counter waiting for me to be civil in an email to the company it became more recognizable as acorn cob. After posting it on facebook one woman explained that when the plant crops they burn what remains when they are ready to plant something else. And it is likely a charred corn cob piece.

Still this is happening more frequently and is annoying at the very leats.



my note on line
I purchased two bags of your  365 cut green beans in the frozen department. First bag fine. Second bag on the last serving was a "thing" that looked like a tiny pine cone. I figured I lived through eating the rest of the bag and I was hungry so I ate the beans but not the foreign object. I took photos  when it was frozen. Then let it sit on the counter until I cooled down enough to write. Once defrosted it looks like a corn cob piece that is charred

well after many emails and giving them the same information over and over again and 3 different customer service representatives- they will be sending me a coupon in the mail. They wanted to email me one- told them I do not have a printer.


we will see how long THIS takes.

received the gift card in the mail and used it on the 17th when I did Hyannis errands. Bought my soymilk and a bar of soap that was over 4 bucks. 76 cents left on it so I said to the clerk to give it to the next customer. I think the soap is rosemary mint or something.

opened a bag of organic carrots I bought at Star Market. It was the gnarliest bunch I have ever seen. over the week ate all but the tiny stump one and one other- got cut up for the bunny rabbits below

I wanted to cook  some Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut them into quarters and arranged them in the pan- accidentally arranged in a pleasing pattern. Couldn't figure out if it was OCD or anal. LOL But surprise! the skins came off easily cooked like this. so there is a plus and not just weird.
