Yuck. Food nastiness inside.

[TheRX7Project]

So today I get home from work at around 8am, knowing good and well what is on the breakfast menu- corn dogs. I buy corn dogs for breakfast all the time. They're cheap, they're quick, and IMO they taste alright.

Not today. Today I open my fresh box of State Fair by Sara Lee brand corn dogs, and right on the first one I grab are two nice mouse turds, frozen right to the batter.

Here is a pic.

I contacted Sara Lee and am waiting for a reply. I am fucking disgusted. Way to ruin one of my favorite breakfasts. I understand shit happens (pun intended) but as long as I don't see it, I don't care. This almost made me hurl.

[07ROUSHSTG3]

wow. you should get some freebies i would think, if you still want them, LOL!


on a similar note, the jimmy dean breakfast sausages wrapped in a pancake were my favorite when i was younger!

[TheRX7Project]

I told them right in my complaint that "I don't know how we're going to resolve this, I obviously don't want more corn dogs".

They could've at least processed that shit or wiped it off or something lol... what I don't know doesn't bother me.

[Exitspeed]

That's what you get for eating corn dogs for breakfast. And you really don't eat that part of them anyway. lol

JK.

That is sick.

[0TransAm0]

funny and sick at the same time...

i wondering what there reply will be..

[animal]

Surely disgusting, but I'm sure it's absolutely impossible to prevent similar things from happening when you're making food in the amounts that they're making. Surprising it's on top and not inside though ;)

You gotta wonder how many he's already eaten that were inside. :stare

Gotta love that your gallon of OJ can have a maggot in it and they won't investigate it unless it has more than 15 of them... and pus pockets in ocean perch, yum.

Sure it doesn't mention rat turds on the outside of corn dogs, but sometimes I find it fascinating that the tolerance levels aren't zero. :goof

Gotta love the FDA and their GRAS measure (generally recognized as safe).

[Nix]

Fuck is that wrong and gross. Sara Lee makes some good "shit" too. I guess I really won't be buying any of that stuff for a while.

You really do have to post the email reply that you get. :thumbsup

[whistlin six]

Ughh..I have state fair corn dogs in the freezer.
Didn't find anything on mine thank God.

Long time ago I found little yellowish maggots living in a box
of pancake mix. Not sure if they were there from the factory or if they
found their way in later. The box had been sitting open in the back of the cabinet for a while.

[TheRX7Project]

They sent me an automated message for now...

And yes, I thought of this... :eek::puke:tomato

I figure the rat/mouse must've gotten at it during the packaging process, not the production. At least that's what I prefer to think.

I'm just glad that #1, I noticed, and #2, they were on the FIRST one I would've eaten, not the last. Imagine you ate something just to find something extremely disgusting in the bottom of the box... BLECH!

[Car Guy]

Those must be the 'limited edition' chocolate sprinkle covered corn dogs.....:goof :rolf

[lordairgtar]

Those are the brand I buy...well...not anymore!

[pOrk]

They will probably send you a bill, extra charge for a Sara Lee Turd

Weevils! They are there from the manufacturer. If you see little black specs, that's them.

[TheRX7Project]

Hmm no real reply yet. I may have to call.

[WhatsADSM]

Yea call them and tell them you will fax/email them a pic :)

Kind of curious where this goes, although I'll bet they will just offer you some free (other) Sara Lee products.

[TheRX7Project]

Yeah and I don't know if I want any free Sara Lee products... except maybe those frozen pies, those are pretty awesome, at least they WERE...

[Nix]

For fucks sake! You would think that finding goddamn rat feces on your motherfucking corndogs would be a guarnteed call/email reply. Not some automated bullshit. I say call Katrina Kravey or what ever in the hell that chicks name is. Contact6 those assholes!! :rolf

[0TransAm0]

i hope you put them in a ziplock bag and back in the freezer... just incase you need to prove to them what it is...

[CATNHAT]

Just think, normally the shit is on the inside and you never see it!! YUMMY!:goof

[TheRX7Project]

No, I threw them out. That would've been a good idea. Still no reply.

[hrsp]

any word yet?

[TheRX7Project]

No. I'm calling tomorrow. Nasty motherfuckers.

[Car Guy]

My guess is they'll nicely blow you off and maybe offer a credit for more chocolate sprinkle covered corn dogs.....:rolf

[Nix]

I don't think you should have thrown out the evidence.

[TheRX7Project]

I don't think you should have thrown out the evidence.

And let me go ahead and quote this for truth.

I got a package in the mail today... asking me to return the "evidence" and packaging... the "evidence" is long gone... and I just took the garbage out that contained the package.

They also sent 3 coupons for free corn dogs... anyone want some free rat turds?

Grrr. This is my own fault. I'll give them a call and send them the pic... but I'm not dumpster diving for the package. It's not going to change how I feel about the situation.

They sent me this email on Dec. 7th (a week after I sent them my original complaint) which, unfortunately, I also just recieved today.

[lordairgtar]

I like corndogs. Send'em to me.

[domokun]

thats just plain stupid to throw the evidence away.

thats like getting robbed and you seen finger prints on your mirror but decided to wipe them off so the mirror would be clean again.

but otherwise, best of luck

[Turbo-Triumph]

Damn if you guys dont want your state fair corndogs, send them my way.

Shit or no shit, the flavor of the corndog is still the same... shitty!

maybe i need to find some rat poop in the next steak i buy.

either way, i wouldnt of been that grossed out by that, its not like you found out it was just a mouse battered over with a stick up its ass, instead of a hot dog.

[0TransAm0]

thats just plain stupid to throw the evidence away.

x2

[0TransAm0]

i hope you put them in a ziplock bag and back in the freezer... just incase you need to prove to them what it is...

:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

[TheRX7Project]

That is all.

[hrsp]

i'll stick with the roundys corn dogs....less shit on them i hope!

[lotsals1]

The dookie prob. has less chemicals in it.
