AIBU to set up just giving thing for man in digestive horror?

Full Story (Portsmouth News site.)

This poor man was the tragic victim of finding an ordinary digestive biscuit in a packet of chocolate digestives. Will he be able to receive counselling on the NHS or should we set up a Just Giving page for donations to help him over it?

Has this happened to anyone else? If so, how did you manage to rebuild your life afterwards?

Just a warning not to read ‘Whitstable Mum in Custard Crisis’ if you see it in a bookshop. It’s been years and I can’t get the horror out of my mind. Beyond appalling.

I once bit into a Club. Chocolate only until half-way down. Good day.

I made 8 boiled eggs and when i opened them up 6 were "double yolks"....i hate yolks, they tasted funny and the dogs refused to eat them as well.

No cozy, happy candy story. I'm very sad now.

Ps a kitkatless kitkat would be heaven but my real question is ....DID SHE GET HER LIFETIME SUPPLY????

OJZJ · 04/11/2017 04:52

I'm hungry and no treats waferless or not of any kind....
"Coughingfor weeks"
My child has never had alphabites or any frozen processed potato product (sensory issues esp food-not wholesome parenting fresh veg only brigade)... dya reckon he could beat the sad face

I once had a craving for a bacon and tomato cupasoup. I opened the box to find no b and t sachets just chicken and mushroom ones from a completely different supermarket brand. Confused

When I worked at Tesco’s we once had a customer who had been sent pack of sausages as a substitute for a turkey two days before Christmas, I had to drive to her in my car with a turkey and profuse apologies. I told her to keep the sausages.

I used to get m&s kitksts because often there would be a solid chocolate finger instead of wafer it was awesome.

BakedBeans47 · 04/11/2017 11:36

:( how awful.

I am not sure a just giving page is enough, do you think a charity single would be better? Anyone got Bono’s phone number?

I opened a loaf of bread once to discover it had been sliced length-ways instead of the normal way. I had three enormous sandwiches.

Not the same but when chocolate Kimberly’s first came out my mother bought a box for christmas(serious extravagance at the time). I was very impatient waiting for the tin to be opened so I removed the seal very carefully and stole one, and put the seal back on. Days later mother opened tin and was disgusted. The next time we were back in the supermarket (where I worked after school, yes I was 17), my mother complained to the assistant manager who gave her a new tin. I was beside her, never opened my mouth. 😳

Is this supposed to be funny?

minesapintofwine · 04/11/2017 22:12

strygil not at all it's a very serious issue

I once found a Rolo in my packet of Munchies. Still upset about it! Nestle did give me £2 compensation though.

Madhairday · 04/11/2017 22:30

I once bought some pain ah chocolats which were blatantly without chocolat. Just an empty space where the lovely melty chocolate should be. Left an empty space in my heart, I can tell you that. #neverthesame

Goldenbug · 04/11/2017 23:03

No Strygy, this is a very serious matter. Very serious indeed.
