So Gross!! I wish I would of taken a picture before and after I squashed it. I guess I was just in shock seeing it.
Darn it!! No wonder we get parasites. These companies are giving them to us. I guess they are allowed to have so much rodent poop in their products but I am not sure about that.
My Husband picked up the box and read it. He said... we aren't buying Kashi any longer. It is probably imported because it says Distributed By Kashi Sales.
I really liked this cereal because there was no added sugar, just grains. No more Kashi for me.
One time I was at a Chinese buffet restaurant and eating some sort of jello. The jello flipped over and on the bottom was a big bug. I told the waitress to look at this.... she took it from me and still charged us for our meals. I will not step foot in that place ever, ever again. EVER!! Disgusting!!
I know that this probably happens a lot, but DON'T LET ME SEE IT!!

Those kind of things drive me crazy!If it had been at your house, you'd have noticed how a mouse got inside. I guess there won't be any more of that cereal in your house (or mine). In spite of that, have a good 2012!
That is gross and you should send the article to the company. Once I was eating potato chips and found a mouse turd. Of course I had eaten the whole bag before using it. YUCK!
that's scary, i think you should write in to let them know..
my sister found the entire mouse in her newly opened box of cereal (Cherrios)...it was dead! I'm so grossed out!
You are right Patrice,
No more Kashi for me!
Grace,
I might send them this post. They will want to give me a new box of cereal though and I don't want it free or not.
OH MY GOSH BECKY JANE!! That is even grosser than a mouse turd!!
Shu Han,
I should write them...just to let them know. But I bet they have heard it before and don't really care.
I didn't enjoy reading this post, it makes me be more careful though.
I don't blame you for eschewing Kashi, I would too.
That is just so gross! It's just unacceptable to have mice turds in food bought off the shelf. The company should have to at least compensate you for your purchase!
Looks like I am not buying any more cereal. That's just terrible.
Yuck!! And I just ate kashi cereal myself - I really love their products :-(
I can't believe that restaurant still made you pay!! I think I would've had to see a manager over that one. I don't like to be demanding or anything, but it would've been very justified in that case.
I thought Kashi was a real clean brand...ewww is all I can say!
Ewww! I think it happens more then you think. Kashi is known to me a good brand.
OMG I hate it when something like this happens! Maybe you could contact them directly and work something out, at least get your money back for this box.
Oh my gosh!!!! I won't be buying their cereal that's for sure. I don't know what I'd do if that happened to me, but I'm guessing the company would hear from me. I would absolutely freak out. I just read the cheerios comment above, now I'm afraid to buy cheerios.
I am going to be dumping cereal boxes out to check them before eating anything in them.
That is just so foul! I would absolutely call that company though! They need to know that they have a serious issue!
Holy freaking crap! Please tell me you are joking. But honestly, I believe you. What is goings on with our foodstuff in this country? That is down right disgusting and you are right. There would have been evidence (chewed box) that it came from your house. Unless you bought the box chewed already and didn't realize it. I and the box of cereal would have returned to the store for full refund. I bought Kashi before and liked it. You are a brave soul to pick up the mouse turd with you bare fingers to examine it! Bless you. As far as the Chinese restaurant? I would have walked out without paying and triple dared someone to say anything. Damn! The stuff we put up with. I think we should start posting billboards outside restaurants when we find something offensive with our food. Or blog, tweet, email friends and tell them not to patronize. Great post Terry. Cheers!!
How utterly disgusting that had to be. Sorry for you, sorrier for the company who probably is losing customers or going to. Makes me shudder to think of it.

OMG....YUCK!!!
eeewww gross. I get grossed out by finding a hair in my food, I can only imagine my reaction to finding a turd
That's pretty disgusting. My mom found rodent poop in jello once. She doesn't use jello anymore. :)
I would definitely call them and tell them what happened! I hate hearing stories like this...makes me afraid to eat because you never know whats going to be in your food!
Terry, I bet you stopped chewing immediately. It sure is a way to ruin your breakfast.
Finding a worm on your lettuce isn't as yucky and when it's in your own house, you have only yourself to blame. It happened when Marilyn was here last. We were eating our salad and I saw my lettuce move. Yup, a little green worm. And I was the one who had washed and spun the greens. Marilyn was already finished with her salad. Lucky her. I guess we are too busy talking when we should concentrate on our cooking :)
I'm really happy that you are feeling better.

Anthony,
Sorry!! My blog does get pretty gross sometimes.
Cheryl,
I haven't contacted the company. I am sure they would compensate me. I just think people need to know what we are eating when we eat processed food.
Grandma Bonnie,
My thoughts exactly.
Lisa,
I thought the restaurant would give us money off for my meal at least. They did nothing
Kim,
That is why I bought Kashi, I thought it was a good brand too. I won't be buying it again, thats for sure
Alissa,
I bet you are right, it probably does happen more than we know.
Angie,
I probably won't contact them. I am just never buying any of their products again.
Terri,
That is funny, but even if I would of dumped it all out, I probably wouldn't of found it. Not until it was in my bowl.
Liz,
Maybe you are right... but I bet they don't think a mouse turd is a serious issue
Tawna,
LOL... yuck is right
Bobbybegood,
In hind sight I should of walked out of that restaurant. I was just not in the mood for a fight that day
Marj,
Kashi is losing my business, thats for sure. I am going to figure out how to make my own.
Linda,
I don't like finding hair either... especially when I am in a restaurant.
Mizzreview,
I know how you feel about being afraid to eat. I try not to eat processed, but sometimes you got to.
Manzy,
I did stop chewing really quickly... I didn't eat anything else after that. I had lost my appetite by that time.
I bet you and Marilyn had a good laugh after you were done being grossed out over the worm.
Oh my goodness that is just awful! I wouldn't buy that cereal again either!
Oh my O.o Hubs and I were icking right there with you! Hubs really likes bare naked cereal. Not sure about how it will jive with your Candida but might be worth looking into as an alternative to mouse poo ;D
Oh no, big Kashi fan ....might have to give it up! And I too just don't want to know what I don't know.
Well, Kashi supposed to be VERY natural.
Cough. ~Mary
Oh this is so grosssss!!! One time I was eating an egg roll that my hubby picked up as part of a late-night treat along with some soup. I took one bite from the egg roll and knew something was wrong for my whole entire mouth felt like I was smoking a cigarette. Sure enough in the egg roll was a used cigarette. Horrible. Hubby drove back to the restaurant and they apologized over and over and gave him a few extra egg rolls. Needless to say I couldn't eat anything. AND I have never ever smoked or even tried a cigarette until that day. Terrible.
Sick!!! I'm so sorry that happened to you!!

Blessings,

Did you ever think to call the company? Maybe they would give you your money back.
Oh, my what an awful and disgusting thing to find in your cereal. I guess maybe my grain-free diet does have its advantages that I had not even thought of!
That is just sick and wrong!! Makes me realize we really need to pay close attention to what we are eating!! YUCK!!
yuck yuck yuck. This is one of my worst fears! I got a package of rice that was infested with maggot looking bugs once....I had nightmares about it for weeks. EEEEEW!
oo my gosh that is just horrible...that can really mess up someone's health
