    just opened a packet of mince i bought in Lidl and put it in the pan to cook when i noticed several small pieces of blue plastic/latex scattered through the mince, i am just wondering would there be any finger in the mince now as the blue plastic bits are probably from a glove of one of the meat processing plants employees?:eek:

    this has put me off eating any minced meat or processed foods now in case there are pieces of finger included.:eek: should i report this to anyone apart from returniing to Lidl with it?

    I doubt if there is any finger involved.

    A lot of raw ingredients in food manufacturing are supplied in blue plastic (supposedly to make it easier to see the plastic if/when it does get into the mix!)

    Most places would dump any product involved in an accident and the compo culture would mean that if someone lost a finger they would report it.
