...not just food. aye right.

was looking forward to a bit of toast, picked up a slice of bread and a big, yellow, torn fingernail fell out. BLEEE! i'm not squeamish but am seriously squicked.

phoned M&S and they said i've to take it back to the shop and i'll get a refund and they'll investigate.

poor dd is yelling for toast, can't really go into why she's not getting any. think we're going out for brunch now.

I don't know where that small e came from.

A nail? That's so grim, so many things, um, get under nails don't they.

i cannot tell you how revolted i am. wouldn't have thought i would be so freaked but it's seriously making me think about getting a bread machine.

i KNOW that production lines are staffed by humans, i know that a jolly baker with red cheeks and a winning smile isn't making my bread, but to think that someone tore off a big fingernail with their teeth and tossed it into my bread mix is just absolutely sickening. it must happen all the time... i don't even eat a lot of processed foods but this is making me think.

Sorry, that's not helping is it? A bread machine sounds good. I'm thinking of getting one, breads so bloody expensive now.

what's ovex guad? i'm afraid that's where your unhelpful comment fell flat...

i did have a bread machine, i gave it away, more's the pity.

I can only thank god that I have not eaten today or I would be hurling all over the place. How hideous. Can you threaten to phone Watchdog? Oh that is the rankest thing I have ever heard. No amount of sexy, husky throated simpering is ever going to make that appetising.

I found a snail shell in a Marks and Spencers curry, i took it to trading standards. Got a £20 voucher from M&S, which i thought was a bit rubbish.
