A French nurse who was having lunch with her 7-year-old son almost choked when she discovered a tuft of hair and small bones in her ground beef, which convinced her to have bitten into a rat or a mouse.
“I chew and I feel something hard in my mouth, I spit it out right away and there I discover a bone of 2 to 3 cm, and next to it, small bones and tufts of hair”, told Aurélie Gardin on Tuesday. to the local newspaper “La Dépêche”.
Even the doctor, who did not detect anything abnormal after a consultation, does not seem to have reassured the young woman, who has lost her appetite and two kilos since the incident, unable to eat anything other than house salads. She says she still feels sick.
The supermarket chain Lidl, which was slow to respond to its client’s complaints, told her that it had found nothing suspicious after analyzes carried out on the batch of meat, before offering her a gift card of $22 as compensation.
The unfortunate client, originally from Lot in Occitania, has not yet filed a formal complaint. However, she got in touch with the repression of fraud and the consumer defense organization to tell them about her misadventure.
