A MICED LOAF
At the end of last month there was a snippet of ridiculous news the sort of thing that would have normally been regarded as an 'urban myth' or a silly season tale. A well known brand of bread was found to have a squashed compressed mouse/rat in the corner of the crust which was discovered when father Stephen Forse was preparing sandwiches for his children one morning. I believe the company was fined but as the father said the tail of the rodent was missing so someone somewhere must have had that in their loaf. I wasn't too worried about it, but I am inclined to inspect the corners of my bread these days.
