Gross me out, man!

I will say, I had exposure once to a civil case of, shall we say, contamination of food within a fast food joint.

I won't say what it was. I won't say what the chain was. What was disturbing was the alleged act itself and then the reports of how it happened around the universe of these types of places.

I'm a pretty logical, compartmentalized (disconnected?) guy at times. I can watch Uma Thurman squish a fake eyeball and eat dinner at the same time because they're disassociated events.

But this one? I rarely get fast food anyway, but there was NO QUESTION that I was avoiding it for a few months after this, and particularly that franchise.

Icky, icky.

Hi!

I wanta know, I wanta know!

Puhhhlease???

Peace.

Errp. Gag.

(And you guys think I'm goofy 'cause I hate cheese?!)

A co-worker would come into the employee lounge and eat his lunch. Same lunch every day. A bologna and mayo sandwich with Cheetos. As god as my witness, he would eat his sandwich and Cheetos and ...*deep breath* he would have some kind of ...*build up* of bread and mayo colored a neon orange (from the Cheetos) all along his teeth! IT WAS THERE! for all to see. He would then ...*gag* scrape his fingernail across his teeth and get that abomination ....look at it...and eat it.

*hack*

Later.

Peace.

In another pub I used to run, years ago, the owners son used to help out in the kitchen, at lunch time. He was about 24 I guess (ie old enough to know better). Anyhoo, this one day, a guy came in that the owners son really didn't like. He was a regular, I thought he was nice but owners son (let's call him Jamie, cos actually, that is his name) couldn't stand him. Chap orders a toasted cheese sandwich, Jamie insisted on making it. He buttered the bread, put a load of grated cheese in it, spat in it, and put it in the toaster. Then served it up with a smile. He really hated him.

Sigs, I can't, I just can't, for professional ethical reasons if nothing else. But generically, it involved a teenage fast food worker who saw a teenage rival coming around in the drive-through. The fast-wood worker gave the rival's food order, shall we say, some special treatment, and no, it didn't involve merely saliva.

So that's bad. But then you start hearing reports of, yeah, you get the wrong (i.e., sick/disturbed) person in the food prep section, and bad things can happen. It's rare, sure, but there's a lot of these places around the nation, so even "rare" adds up. And of course, there's no way that any restaurant or fast-food chain wants the reports to get out.

One evening a friend and I went to my favorite Chinese restaurant. I ordered one of those fancy drinks with an umbrella and was happily sipping it through a straw when I removed the umbrella and discovered a roach swimming in my drink. It had been hiding under the umbrella. I was so grossed out, I couldn't speak or scream. Our waitress happened to walk by and saw me watching the roach swim around. She screamed and grabbed my drink and apologized profusely. I can no longer drink anything that comes with an umbrella lol.

My sister used to work as a med tech and they had to analyze a stool sample of someone with chronic bowel problems. They discovered the stool was full of some type of egg that didn't look like a typical bowel parasite. They left the eggs to incubate and these strange little worms hatched. They still couldn't identify the worms but kept them in an aquarium. A while later the worms coccooned and turned into these giant flies about the size of your thumb!

Oh, and one of my daughters shot poop directly into my mouth while I was changing a diaper.

And once I was swimming and a dead mouse floated right by my face.

This happened to a friend...
She got a large Coke from a fast food restaurant. After finishing the drink, she removed the lid to eat the crushed ice and found a large spider on top of the ice. I always remove the lids from my Coke before drinking lol

Of all the gross posts in this thread, fushingfeef, your's definitely takes the cake, in my humble opinion!

I was at a crazy pool party for the staff hosted by the country club I caddied for. Right after this spontaneous synchronized swimming bit we performed, we noticed a large doodie floating by. Everyone scrambled and it was mayhem. This big goofy kid swam up to it and took a bite out of the thing. Grossed us all out! Later we found out it was just a floating Baby Ruth bar.

Sneak preview:

"Evolutionary biologist Jerry Coyne got all soft inside when he thought about how the botfly larva in his scalp was eating his tissue and turning it into a new organism. It was of him, like a child. His friend Sarah Rogerson was a little less charmed, and they both were surprised by the creature that ultimately emerged from his head."

Interesting - I don't know how he could stand having that in his head for so long ! Yuk

Infestation is one of my biggest "bluerghs"..... I swear, when I hear a story about stuff crawling out of where it has no business being, I've got my hands over my ears and am singing loudly....

My husband had bought us dinner from KFC and I found a hair in mine. Needless to say I called the manger. She said bring it back and we will replace it. I said I don't think so ,she refunded our money. But have not went back since.

First time ever skinny dipping with a friend we went from one pond to another through this big metal pipe. When we emerged into the other pond we each had about 20 or so leaches on us. Only about an inch long and man to do those things latch on fast. I think she fainted a couple of times while I was getting them off her with a ciggy. Only a drop or two of blood when each came off. We didn’t last very long together. She couldn’t get over the ick factor associated with the experience.

I wrote a story once like that for the kids. They loved the story, but then in later years, they confessed that it stuck with them, and they always got "ew" thoughts in the shower when they looked in the drain.

I grew up with two cats. One of them l-o-v-e-d me and slept on my pillow at night. I awakened one night right after he barfed in my hair. (Kids sleep the sleep of the dead - hurricanes couldn't awaken me back then and neither could the sounds of a cat about to upchuck.)
