Stockholm - A Swedish woman said on Sunday that she had found a penis in a bottle of ketchup.

Viktoria Ed said she was lucky enough to discover the organ before putting the sauce on her bread rolls, unlike her husband Stefan and their children, Madeleine and Simon..................

What bothers me is that someone had a cock small enough to fit through the neck of a ketchup bottle.

Cocktail weenys anyone?

[JT]

That's not all you should know about ketchup. They have a protien standard for ketchup. If there are too many insects ground up with the tomaters the protien level goes up and past a certain point they can't sell it.

Yummy!

[DrSagan]

Ya know, JT, I could have gone my entire life and enjoyed NOT knowing that tidbit of information

[dRaNo]

What's really in hotdogs.

[fubr]

What about the shit they put in chicken feed to make em grow faster.
I used to raise chickens with my uncle and a few would get out of the house while they were young and live off the cow shit and flies bugs and what not, anyway we would not feed them the feed the chicken people brought and when it came time for the catchers to come the ones in the house would be twice as big.

alot of people around here kep chicken in thier yard to eat mosquitioes during the summer and also alot of "illegal" cock fights and the ones that get the so called good food are alsways bigger than the ones that live of mosquitioes.

[Teppy1954]

Well, thats it for ketchup in my house! Barrrrrrffffffffff! (not to mention chicken!)

[smilingjack]

They also regulate the alowable amount of rat shit in coffee. It seems that they can't keep rats out of the holds of the ships that in comes in so they test for ratio of coffee to rat shit and if the amount is low enough you drink it.

Warm up anyone ?

[JT]

Now I'm really glad I don't drink coffee. Not suprising though. Some of the food safety standards out there are right along the same lines as those for catsup and coffee. The best beef is allowed to 'rot' at slightly cooler than room temperature for a while before butchering. Ham is hung in a smoker for up to two weeks and stuff grows on it. Cheeze, yogurt, and many other products are absolutely discusting if you know what they really are. Doesn't mean they don't taste good. Just that were prolly better off not knowing how a lot of our diet is produced. It's pretty amazing the differences between cultures what is tolerated on this level too. We're not the only ones who eat some pretty gross stuff.

[smilingjack]

You really don't want to know.

Did anyone know that they had to regulate Peanut Butter ?

It seems that to save money they were leaving the Peanuts out of it.
It is after all just mostly grease and oil.

I believe the government requirement is 45 % minimum peanut content is required.

[lefty]

Did anyone know that they had to regulate Peanut Butter?

Oh no!

I remember reading an article (on paper, no less - so it's gotta be true, right?) about the regulation of Parmesan Cheese. There was a guy who got the idea of using a cheese grater and grinding up beige umbrella handles and selling them as grated Parmesan Cheese.

Yuk!

what next a vagina

[Teppy1954]

Its getting grosser in here!
My brother used to work at a gourmet deli in the days before everyone wore those rubber gloves. One day while mixing the coleslaw (he just reached into a giant vat -up to his armpits), he noticed his bandaid had slipped off into the salad. He told his supervisor about it and was told to shut up.

I will not eat most salads prepared in a restaurant, and for sure none of those factory salads. (In Toronto they closed down one of these guys-his potato salad was giving people salmonella poisoning)

What about the Chilli (Wendy's) story that made the papers last week.
Do not recal where exactly, but somewhere in the States a Wendy's customer found a finger in her chilli. At first they tought it was a kidney bean!

They (Wendy's) later issued a press conference stating that nobody at the restaurant had reported any injuries and it likely occured at a manu8facturing plant out of the country.

By the way, Wendy's and Tim hortons are now owned by the same corporation, so if you ate chilli at Tim's lately... How was it?

Here is the Story

So that is the color in the coleslaw!

You think burgers are better?

[smilingjack]

And they say the average burger has meat from 100 steers in it.

And then There is Sourkraut, I worked where the Kisslings Sourkraut factory was in Philadelphia. All day the dump trucks from New Jersy would come and dump Cabbage into holes in the ground where it would go to the basement, be chopped up and put in wood barrels to ferment.
Since it was located in the Bowery district all night long drunk Wine-o 's would walk up to the chutes and piss in the holes where the Cabbage was, I guess that's where the tangy taste comes from.

i like to read and learn but this is nasty shit

[mopar611]

I remember when I was a dish washer for a local restaurant food would fall on the floor and the cooks would just pick them up and flick off the big pieces of dirt or brush it off and put it on the plate or finish cooking it. I bet you it happens all the time as restaurants try to save money and stay in business.

I think we are all in denial as shit like this happens everyday wheather its a resturant, deli, supermarket or wherever food is served. But we all have that mentality of what we dont see wont hurt us.

[bols2dawaLL]

that's it , i'm never eating again.

LMFAO......well just watch *Fear Factor*...?...That type of entertainment can go N2 ...anytime it want's..LOL.....try living 50 or 60 year's ago ..and see how healthy you were ./...?..wonder why the death age keep's going up ..?..LMFAO.....?

SJ, I used to have a peanutbutter maker, all it did was grind peanuts and make peanutbutter, peanuts have a large amount of nutaral oils and fats no need to add any when processing it. A little research will show you what can be done with simple peanuts, it's amazing really.....

Below is the Federal guidlines for Peanut Butter.....

The way I read it peanutbutter is at least 90% peanuts by weight......

21 CFR 164.150 Peanut butter.

(a) Peanut butter is the food prepared
by grinding one of the shelled and
roasted peanut ingredients provided for
by paragraph (b) of this section, to
which may be added safe and suitable
seasoning and stabilizing ingredients
provided for by paragraph (c) of this
section, but such seasoning and stabilizing
ingredients do not in the aggregate
exceed 10 percent of the weight of
the finished food. To the ground peanuts,
cut or chopped, shelled, and
roasted peanuts may be added. During
processing, the oil content of the peanut
ingredient may be adjusted by the
addition or subtraction of peanutoil.
The fat content of the finished food
shall not exceed 55 percent when determined
as prescribed in ‘‘Official Methods
of Analysis of the Association of
Official Analytical Chemists,’’ 13th Ed.
(1980), section 27.006(a) under ‘‘Crude
Fat—Official First Action, Direct
Method,’’ in paragraph (a), which is incorporated
by reference. Copies may be
obtained from the Association of Official
Analytical Chemists International,
481 North Frederick Ave., suite 500,
Gaithersburg, MD 20877–2504, or may be
examined at the Office of the Federal
Register, 800 North Capitol Street,
NW., suite 700, Washington, DC.
(b) The peanut ingredients referred to
in paragraph (a) of this section are:
(1) Blanched peanuts, in which the
germ may or may not be included.
(2) Unblanched peanuts, including the
skins and germ.
(c) The seasoning and stabilizing ingredients
referred to in paragraph (a)
of this section are suitable substances
which are not food additives as defined
in section 201(s) of the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act), or if
they are food additives as so defined,
they are used in conformity with regulations
established pursuant to section
409 of the act. Seasoning and stabilizing
ingredients that perform a useful
function are regarded as suitable, except
that artificial flavorings, artificial
sweeteners, chemical preservatives,
and color additives are not suitable
ingredients in <a style='text-decoration: none; border-bottom: 3px double;' href="peanut%20butter" onmouseover="window.status='peanut butter'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">peanut butter</a>. Oil
products used as optional stabilizing
ingredients shall be hydrogenated vegetable
oils. For the purposes of this
section, hydrogenated vegetable oil
shall be considered to include partially
hydrogenated vegetable oil.
(d) If peanut butter is prepared from
unblanched peanuts as specified in
paragraph (b)(2) of this section, the
name shall show that fact by some
such statement as ‘‘prepared from
unblanched peanuts (skins left on).’’
Such statement shall appear prominently
and conspicuously and shall be
in type of the same style and not less
than half of the point size of that used
for the words ‘‘peanut butter.’’ This
statement shall immediately precede
or follow the words ‘‘peanut butter,’’
without intervening written, printed,
or graphic matter.
(e) Label declaration. Each of the ingredients
used in the food shall be declared
on the label as required by the
applicable sections of parts 101 and 130
of this chapter.
[42 FR 14475, Mar. 15, 1977, as amended at 47

One time the wife picked me veggies from our garden for my lunch.

As I was eating, I was watching across the street daydreaming. When I finished picking through my zip lock baggie there were hundreds of tiny bugs crawling around the sack.

No shit!

[smilingjack]

They make or made at one time a (commercial) natural peanut butter as you made at home. If you made it I am sure you noticed the difference in consistancy, the natural peanut butter was hard almost crumbly, It did taste good though I tried it. But it's not what todays shopper wants, they want it creamy smooth and easy to spread.

I have to admit I prefer the 50% shortning stuff myself, as long as it still tastes like peanuts.

55 percent when determined

Is about right after they REMOVE the peanut oil and sell it to you in a bottle they add cheaper oils and sortnings to replace it.

The article I had in mind was from many years ago when they were just using enough peanuts to flavor it about 35 to 40% I believe the article said, That was what led to the government regs. Bet some of them still cheat.
