Bug in ice cream!

What is the name of your state?

I'm in new york and i purchased a half gallon of ice cream and found what may be a large spyder in it. Initial phone consultation with a local lawyer suggest i may not be able to sue but what should I accept if they offer to settle.What is the name of your state?

What exactly are you going to sue for? What were your damages?


I am just shaking my head here. Were you mad that there were not more in there than one large spider. What was the flavor?
