I'm sorry that this has come to an untidy end..I was hoping for something spectacular

I know!! I must admit I was tempted to invent something a little more spectacular just to round things off nicely Grin

@GeorgeandHarold66
What , how dare they not tell you what it is ! do they not know that the world of MN needs to know ?
I think you should email them a link to this thread and demand that they tell us what it is .

Parrots in dippers ??? feck auto correct .
Either that or I have just come up with a new recipe for McD's parrort Dippers

If the measly £5 voucher is for Polly sauce I think I would be tempted to put in in the local food bank .
I have never really understood why ( esp food /drink) companies give you a voucher for something like this .

You - this sauce / pie/ soup/ has got something wrong with it .
Company - oh we have really slipped up and hurt / poisoned someone
lets give them more of the same to see if we can actually kill them Confused

I did send it to them, they sent a pre-paid envelope for it. Had to send the jar it came in too.

I suspect they do know what it is but aren't sharing the information for fear of a much bigger reaction.

There's several different associated companies on the voucher but yes I'm planning foodbank or Olio for it.... make sure it gets used.

@SirVixofVixHall

Ugggggh this has given me the horrors. Was it like a fly in amber ?

No, more like a mint with six legs Envy

SirVixofVixHall · 08/06/2021 08:35

A mint with legs...
Well that has put me off my tin of car sweets...

You’d get more than £5 if you sell the story to a red top...

@Lumene
I can see the headlines now
' @GeorgeandHarold66 gets eatten eatten/ attacked by . . . Whatever it is.
Friends ( aka MNers) are concerned as she seems to go quiet for long periods of time there were rumours that it is able to control minds.

At the bottom of the artical there is a cartoon picture of a parrot wearing a nappy

OP, I work in food safety and it is well within your rights as a wronged consumer to demand full access to their complaint report, investigation and conclusion - as well as corrective actions (so the rest of us are not subjected to repeat ‘foreign bodies’. I think —we— you deserve full disclosure!
