AIBU to be scared of what I found in my McDonald’s (pic 🤢)

[whatisthisinmyburger]

Had McDonald’s tonight, ordered the McPlant burger as usual and found this inside it! Does anyone have any clue what it could be?

Really hoping there’s a non gross explanation for this, it’s really put me off!

Ewww, what the hell is that?

It looks like part of a jackfruit.

Not a clue, but all the best

My god, I think I’ve had enough Internet for today.

YABVU.

Definitely looks plant based, maybe a bean that has sprouted?

Broccoli?

YABU - That's just an innocent raisin trying to sprout its young! No?

Urgh that looks like eggs of some sort.

Looks like potato sprouts.

Looks like something from Alien !

That looks traumatising

I just checked the published ingredients list to try and puzzle it out, but I’m still none the wiser.

It’s main constituent is “pea protein” but basically everyone else on the list is a liquid, flavouring or preservative.

Plant Based Burger
Ingredients: Water, Pea Protein (16%), Rapeseed Oil, Coconut Oil, Flavouring, Rice Protein, Stabiliser (Methyl Cellulose), Potato Starch, Apple Extract, Salt, Pomegranate Extract, Potassium Chloride, Concentrated Lemon Juice, Maize Vinegar, Yeast Extract, Carrot Powder, Emulsifier (Sunflower Lecithin), Colour (Beetroot Red), Maltodextrin.

Looks like some kind of parasite 😱

Have you emailed customer services with the pic. If it’s something sinister they might need to recall some of their products. If it’s something innocent but just gross looking you might get some vouchers.

I once found what looked suspiciously like rat dropping in my rice crispies, 🤢 so I complained to Kelloggs and got some vouchers for kellogs products as an apology (although I didn’t really fancy rice crispies again for a while😂)

Was it actually physically inside the burger, or was it loose in the bread in amongst the salad bits?

probably fell out of the chefs nose while he was cooking

Almost looks like some sort of egg case .....eurgh poor you OP ..... that would put me off for life!!

Eeew! 🤢

Those white bits are very reminiscent of wisdom teeth when they’ve been extracted. Although obviously not that. It’s also not part of a jackfruit and the mcplant doesn’t contain any jackfruit.

Is it obviously some kind of plant matter? Are the white bits wet and crunchy like some kind of bulb/tuber roots?

Whatever it is it looks totally evil.

Looks like John Hurt's belly button.

I don't think OP fancies chewing it to find out!

I hope you don't mind OP but I downloaded the photo onto my phone and used Google Lens to try and identify it.

It came up with "Flea"

Well that's definitely not fucking vegan.

Oh far out, that turned my stomach.

I badly want to know what it is. I think.

OP you've got to take that back and show them. Or email it somewhere. It needs to be stopped whatever it is.

@Wichit 🤣🤣
