I know what it is. It is a mutant pear seed that was exposed to radioactive rays.
Think along the lines of James and the giant Pear.

I am horrified too by the way, and will never again eat food that grows on trees willy nilly Sad

I had the Caterpillar flesh in the top of a Copella drink once. Didn't drink another for years! Grin. Ex Dh found a snail in the mixed veg. We aren't sure whether it was dead on packaging or we microwaved the poor sod alive Confused.

DAFUK IS THAT THING?!

I was brave and clicked on Thumbwitch's link. I think she's solved the mystery. No-one else needs to click on it now. Save yourselves. Please excuse me while I go and bleach my eyeballs...

SmellyFartado · 04/02/2014 17:06

The curiosity was too great though Thumb. I will never walk past a pear again in the fruit aisle

TalkieToaster · 04/02/2014 17:06

This thread needs to go in Classics.

Nothing helpful to add.

But my great aunt was once eating an orange at the cinema and when the lights came up… 'twas full of maggots.

She's been a vegetarian ever since. Grin

I zoomed in on that and did a double take. It looked like a lizards head at a glance. Not quite sure what a Lizards head would be doing inside a pear though OP so think you are safe. I wouldnt eat a Pear for at least a decade after that neither. .

Thumbwitch · 04/02/2014 17:00

Sorry Smelly - I did warn you though!

SmellyFartado · 04/02/2014 17:00

To elaborate on Lou's post, if Hairy's pic is the mouse pear baby, Thumb's pic is the evil leader of the mice pear babies.

I actually feel sick and am quaking at the pending mutant invasion

I have actually screamed out loud to Thumbwitch's link.

theDudesmummy · 04/02/2014 16:53

Now this sort of thing is why I do not eat fruit unless it is in a cake or something

WowserBowser · 04/02/2014 16:49

Like a mouse?

Pootles2010 · 04/02/2014 16:46

Are you sure it's a pear OP? Vegboxes have all kinds of odd things in them, might be something else entirely?

BigfootFiles · 04/02/2014 16:45

I want to lose a bit of weight. I might print the manky pear pictures off and stick them on the fridge. No way would I want to eat anything if I had to look at that first.

helenthemadex · 04/02/2014 16:45

why were you eating in the dark? were you hiding from something?

DontWannaBeObamasElf · 04/02/2014 16:44

If you're in the Grampian area I'd gladly come for a gander!

SnakeyMcBadass · 04/02/2014 16:31

The fuck

I need to know what this is. By all that is Holy, someone identify this horror.

Do NOT click on Thumbwitch's link. I did and it can never be erased . But I think she might be right.

Reading this thread with growing horror, and the voiceover lady on Nicktoons has just announced that "All the best things come in pairs". I think not lady Grin

Never ever ever agin will I eat a pear!

notjustamummythankyou · 04/02/2014 16:15

Why did Mumsnet have to link to this on Fb??

My fellow commuters are regarding my growing looks of horror with utmost curiosity. Perhaps I should ask them what they think? (Although I'm not sure how many botanists there are on the no. 6 bus).
