Toe-tellini anyone? Aldi customer's shock after finding 'huge' nail in her pasta sauce

By Simon Garner | Yahoo! News – 23 hours ago

Yahoo! News - Tracy Arnold, 46, from Wisbech, Cambridgeshire who founda human toe nail in her Aldi food

A shopper has spoken of her disgust after finding a toenail in a jar of pasta sauce she bought from discount supermarket Aldi.

Tracy Arnold had just whipped up a spaghetti bolognese when her 22-year-old daughter screamed at the sight of a huge toenail sticking out of the family dinner.

Mrs Arnold, who had brought the sauce yesterday, was completely shocked by the "disgusting" discovery, which she had initially thought was a piece of gristle.

She quickly realised the grim object was a toenail that had either came from the pasta sauce or from a packet of minced beef she had bought from the Aldi store that morning.

The next day she took the toenail to the supermarket in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, where staff were left horrified by the discovery.

Mrs Arnold, of Wisbech, said: "It was the most disgusting thing I have ever found in food in my life.

"She thought at first that it was a bit of gristle but it was clearly a man's toenail.

"It was huge, it looked like it had been cut."

Mrs Arnold is now calling for all products to be recalled until a full investigation is carried out and wants to be refunded the £127 she spent on her weekly shop.

A spokeswoman for Aldi said: "We work hard to provide high quality products for our shoppers and take customer complaints very seriously.

"We have requested that Mrs Arnold returns the product to store so that we can investigate the matter further with our suppliers."

I once was enjoying a chinese in a restaurant, getting to the end of the meal I was about to eat a 'black bean' on the fork I realised it was a stewed blue bottle 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

One weekend i was I was having to do my very rare man-turn at cooking a meal for her indoors.

As ever everything was slightly out of control and not behaving and i was fending off a disaster,

when I noticed the young cat about to pish all over the lounge carpet.

I abandoned the pan on the stove and raced to get a newspaper under the animal just in time.

Seconds later i had a big warm shallow pool of pish on a floppy soggy newspaper to deal with quickly.

As i raced to carry the cat, the newspaper and the big warm pool of pish to the back door, i had to make an abrupt left turn thro the kitchen.

Me, the cat and the newspaper went left, whilst the big pool of pish went straight ahead and landed right in the middle of the pan on the stove. There was a big sizzling whoosh and a cloud of steaming pish.

' ooh something smells nice' she called enthusiastically from another room.

Big dilemma. But i could hardly bin it now.

So a few minutes later I served it up on a nice plate and said nowt.

i didn't have any myself of course.

For some reason I just wasn't hungry but apparently that is not unusual when you've been cooking a meal for a long time.

So there you go.

There's my cooking tip.

add the bladder contents just before serving.

Cisse eats fish that's been buried underground for 10 years.

Watch him try to tell us it tastes nice.

That's done in Denmark. Or was it in Iceland. Anyway not here. I don't eat kidney pies or any other urine related things either.

Kidneys? Bloody horrible. Think it was in the Victorian? era, people here used to eat them for breakfast. Dirty buggers. Who could stand that first thing on a morning?

Kidney and lambs heart fried in butter with button mushrooms on fried bread 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wub' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' /> . Now that`s what I call a Sunday morning breakfast. You can pick the kidney and heart up cheap from your local butcher.
