Attack on Saudi

[JBR]

I found a bolt in something or other from Tesco and got a nice voucher. A while later I had some ready meal or other from them and there were some maggots in the rice. I was going to send that to them but my wife insisted it should be reported to some public health part of the council which was done. Never heard a thing and not even a refund let alone a nice chunky voucher.

Mental note: avoid Tesco.  Thanks for the warning.  I have heard things about Tesco before.

Maggots in the rice?  I assume dead.

Yes they were dead. I can't recall exactly what type of meal it was other than there was a serving of rice as part of it. They were quite small about the same size as the grains of rice. Luckily I'm a customer of Specsavers.

Well, that's a strange thing.  Not in a month of Sundays would I have thought that maggots would be found in rice.  Meat products, yes.  But not rice.

Weevils .

I thought they had legs.

Were they attacking Saudi ?

There's Alex - straying onto topic again. 

I have no more idea how we got here than I do on how the maggots or whatever protein laden animal delicacies they were got into the rice. Maybe in a similar way that nuts seem to get into all sorts of things these days. And in least one case a bolt which I assume was part of the machinery used to make or maybe pack the food.

Annoying aren't I?

I wonder whether the maggots were added to the rice intentionally for additional flavour.
