Good website, good and straightforward on the eyes and great content too. Do you want a lot of drafts to make a post?

I cannot wait to read simple things more of this good topic. So much of it Ive never even acknowledged. You sure did put an alternative twist on something that Ive heard a huge amount of about. I dont believe Ive actually read most things that does this subject nearly as good justice as you solely did.

I have been searching the web recently to see if what happened to me is regularly occurring. I, too eschew canned food and eat plenty of fresh foods. But occasionally, I’ve enjoyed an “Original” salad from Carl’s Jr. On Sept. 16th at 11:20p.m. I ordered one to go, brought it home and had about seven bites. Then I started mixing the salad a little and my fork hit, what I thought might be, a glob of wilted greens which
h kind of bothered me to begin with. As I picked up the soggy blob to take it to the sink, I noticed a tail, legs, head, teeth, protruding intestines all lightly covered with my salad greens. It was a field rat. I threw it in the sink and the spit, scour routine began. I managed to call the restaurant just before they closed at midnight to warn them to check other salads. Since it was so late resources to answer my questions about possible dangers were scant. I had a very fitful night to say the least. The manager called the next morning and sounded a little guarded and said the HR person would call me. She did at 4:40 just before she left work, I suppose. More cool guarded tones. Of course I put the field rat and the salad in my freezer. I called the County Health inspector, I calLed the Corp. Office in Calif.. I took the field rat and salad to the restaurant to show a couple of young employees in order to impress on them to take extra care to look. No fu
Sorry, I have a Blackberry Storm and it will not allow me to finish this entry easily. Just to say be careful out there.

There is a show on Discovery, “Life Without People.” I suggest you see if you can find the series and watch the episode about what would happen to grocery stores if people disappeared tomorrow.

Although I thought I fed my family healthy prior to watching this show (checked for organic, no added sugar, etc.), now my family eats healthy! I became disgusted by ANY processed foods. I now order organic whole grains and mill them myself. I make all our pasta, breads, desserts, etc from SCRATCH. I order all our dairy and meats from an amish farm in PA. I have learned how to make everything from onion rings and poppers to ketchup. The only thing we buy at the grocery store is the produce we can’t grow. But it is funny that what we eat would terrify any dieter, with our fresh from the farm heavy creams, cheeses, butter, yet we have all lost weight without trying (30lbs for me in about 4-5 months). Our food tastes better than ever and we have lost weight, even better we know exactly what is in our food and where it came from.

I also call this my “clean food.” Everyone should be so aware of what they are putting in their bodies.

Hi Sally,
Thanks so much for stopping by to comment and give us the inside scoop on what happened. Just unbelievable! And it must have been something dealing with this as a vegetarian.

Leanne, I hear what you’re saying about the cost of fresh vs. canned and frozen. I do think frozen veggies are a good choice if you can’t get fresh. It definitely can be hard when feeding a family. I think that even going from canned to frozen is a step in the right direction for many people. I always like to think of our health in terms of baby steps.

Debbie, it’s amazing that even in veggies we can find insects. At least I can understand the grasshopper but I just can’t get my arms around the rat.

Goes to show we must all be so conscious about what we’re putting in our bodies. Thanks to all of you for commenting!

I am the sister of the woman who bought this can. I myself am a vegetarian and have raised my kids “off” of this kind of food. This situation is real, however. My sister called me in a panic–freaking out and even threw up twice. She had to send pictures to the company and so I came over later and we filmed it. Of course the can was already opened. I had to psych myself up to do it. I found an old spoon and did the scooping. If you think the images are gross, you should have experienced the smell.
Best bet for food is fresh, local, organic, non-processed, and non GMO. Beware of ingredients you can not pronounce. It is not an easy task feeding kids healthy foods in an age when junk is all around and junk is cheap. Best wishes to all you parents out there.

Once I found a grasshopper in a bag of frozen green beans. I called the company and they sent me a box to ship it to them plus coupons for several free bags of their frozen veggies. Yes, I still buy frozen and mostly that brand. But I still sometimes dump out the whole bag into a bowl just in case. It can happen with any company since there are grasshoppers and other insects in the fields.
