Woman Finds Cell Phone in Bag of Potato Chips

Woman Finds Cell Phone in Bag of Potato ChipsWhile not nearly as disgusting as finding a Band-Aid or (gag) a human finger in your food, we still understand why Emma Schweiger of Wisconsin was a little perturbed to find an aging Nokia cell phone in her bag of Clancy's Ripple Potato Chips.

Schweiger was absentmindedly munching away on her salty snack when she felt something hard, and a tad misshapen, in the bottom of her bag of chips. After the mild heart attack subsided, she removed from the bag what appears to be a Nokia 6810. The messaging phone from 2004 wouldn't turn on, but still held a T-Mobile SIM card captive in its innards.

The store where Schweiger bought the chips has pulled all of the bags of Clancy's with the same expiration date and offered her a replacement bag, but she's feeling a little turned off of potato chips for the moment. We wonder if she would have been just as disgusted if it had been an iPhone instead of a five year-old POS. [From: CrunchGear, Via: Textually.org]
