Just another reason to stick to great-tasting food that’s terrible for you.
Zoe, from Australia, was caught by surprise when a bag of lettuce she had purchased contained a friend inside: a spider. Luckily for us, the woman was able to catch it on camera and put it up on Facebook so we could all be disgusted together.
Zoe made sure to share it with the Woolworths Facebook page. Woolworths is one of two major supermarket chains in Australia, and of course, Woolworths was fast to respond: "Woolworths takes food safety very seriously. We require our suppliers to follow clear quality control guidelines during food processing," Woolworths responded. "Pre-packaged lettuce goes through an extensive process before being packaged. Our suppliers wash, blow dry, shake and visually inspect the lettuce. We immediately sent a food quality expert to the processing facility to see what additional measures can be put in place." Well, looks like the cleaning process with this specific bag of lettuce wasn't extensive enough. h/t Distractify What's your problem, Australia?: Massive Huntsman Spider Found In Australian Home Reminds Everyone To Keep Flamethrower Nearby
