WORMS found in Box of Raisins

What is the name of your state? California

I bought a box of raisins at Walgreens in Sacramento. Opened and started eating until I glanced at what I'm eating and saw a white wiggly thing going its way through the raisins. It was a darn worm!! I was grossed out and started throwing up. What are my rights as a consumer against Walgreens for selling me a dirty food?

you have the right to either a refund of your money, or another box of raisins.

I know which one I would pick. LOL

I'd suggest you not say anything.

They may charge you for the extra protein!



Sorry...you have NOT won the lawsuit lottery.

Try again soon.

It appears that what you saw were maggots.

 

[fairisfair]

you also might want to try glancing at your food BEFORE you eat it. Just a thought.
