CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. - A Pennsylvania woman says she realized there was a bird in her can of spinach when she noticed a yellow beak in a lump of greens.
"I immediately felt like I was going to vomit," Cherie Lyons, of Chambersburg, told the York Daily Record. "I was sick for the next whole day."
Lyons said she found the bird June 14 after pouring the spinach into a bowl.
Lyons told the Daily Record she felt mistreated after calling Del Monte. She was offered a $10 check and a request for the bird to be sent back.

My dad did the same, and I still like vinegar on spinach and in bean soup. Is it a Midwestern thing? My wife’s from NC and won’t eat either dish with vinegar.
That's strange. It was alive when we put it in there.
By the way, I chose to just take the soda in large part because in the end, I wasn't harmed and even then I thought frivolous litigation was ruining the country (amongst other things) and I didn't want to add to the problem. So from my perch upon on my moral high horse I declared to myself that I would not engage in such behavior. But I took the bribe offered so I guess I'm not all that virtuous after all.
Vinegar makes a lot of things better.
French fries and malt vinegar...
Same here. Sauerkraut comes to mind. That’s about it for me.
LOL!
I remember one little girl who liked the canned snot so much that she scraped up every tiny shred. The teachers watched in amazement.
Those pictures ARE pretty gross.
Just curious, what does that have to do with anything here?
Not buying her story. Looks like she shaped the spinach to look like a bird.
Re: Just curious, what does that have to do with anything here?
Sorry! Missed your comments that went with the image.
Lol!
One thing fishy about her story is that she poured the spinach into a bowl. Usually if I open a can of something that I’m going to heat up, I pour it into a pot first. Then turn the heat on. Was she eating cold canned spinach? I suppose she could’ve been planning to put it into a bowl with other ingredients. If her story is true, it is pretty disgusting, but I have my doubts.
Don't mention the war!
In fancy sit-down restaurants, you can order a large meal and halfway through the main course, take a little dead cockroach or a piece of glass out of your pocket and place it deftly on the plate. Jump up astonished and summon the headwaiter. "Never have I been so insulted. I could have been poisoned" you scream slapping down the napkin. You can refuse to pay and leave, or let the waiter talk you into having a brand new meal on the house for this terrible inconvenience.I'm sure you know this, but for those who don't, Hoffman was one of seven defendants (the "Chicago Seven") charged by the federal government with conspiracy, inciting to riot, and other charges related to anti-Vietnam War and countercultural protests that took place in Chicago on the occasion of the 1968 Democratic National Convention.
He was a real (communist) piece of work.
My dear Watson, perhaps after emptying the contents into the sauce pan, she transferred said bird into a bowl. ...
Just saying. ..
Might very well be. I grew up (1-18) in Michigan.
