[quote Puntastic]@Leah2005- I remember now, it was sootikins!

I don't think that's what's in OP's sauce though.[/quote]
Sootikin sounds so cute..... then I googled it....🤮

It looks like a tomato that hasn't formed properly, they always look really odd (weird inside out things). The black side could be tomato seeds.

Well OP, honestly I’m not sure I’ll sleep tonight.
That could be the most disgusting thing I’ve seen.

Wow that looks grim!

iluvnettletea · 29/04/2021 21:08

That's making me itch.

That is a designer toadskin hot water bottle, that is. Somewhere there is a very cold, pissed-off vole missing its creature comforts Sad

Moral of the story is: don't not buy ready made pasta sauce 😂

MamaWeasel · 29/04/2021 21:16

I had to go and google sootikin didn't I? I couldn't have just scrolled past and remained in blissful ignorance. Not me. Envy

I had a dirty fake nail in Philadelphia cheese. It was absolutely disgusting. I contacted them but only later after people told me I should and they did nothing about it.

You can probably boil it up and you've got a cure for covid / ebola / baldness etc there!

You could make a fortune off this on the herbal medicine market!

BrownEyedGirl80 · 29/04/2021 21:23

Set it on fire! Urgh

@SisterAgatha

Fucking hell!! Was it at least a nice clean one? Or was it a bright green 'fungal infection' flavoured specimen?

MrsMaizel · 29/04/2021 21:39

It looks like avocado !

Alcemeg · 29/04/2021 21:40

It is the crushed scrotum of a goblin.

MotherOfGodWeeFella · 29/04/2021 21:41

I thought it looked like a malformed tomato.

LH1987 · 29/04/2021 21:47

Is it a sun dried tomato that’s been burnt?

Waitwhat23 · 29/04/2021 21:51

I could have gone my whole life without knowing what a sootikin was, I just had to Google it didn't I!

My guess for the photo is a blackberry but I don't know why that would be in pasta sauce. Unpleasant experience for you OP.
