I recently bought a tray of muffins. they looked fresh and edible.
BUT I discovered something STRANGE inside.looked like this "thing" belonged in a rubbish bin. I was shocked, because I didnt expect this from the store.How can I sue

Call the health department. Why sue? I'm sure many other people have had the same problems, but they haven't sued. But if you call the health department they can get to the bottom of what the problem is. And unless you have evidence that this actually happened it's just your word against theirs in a lawsuit.

Have you spoken to the people who sold you the "defective" muffin with the item which looked like it belonged in the trash bin???? You needed to show it to someone in the establishment at the time that it happened. Did you consume the "thing"???? If you did not and you are not physically harmed because of it; why would you possibly want to sue this establishment???? Are you just looking for money? It would have been much more helpful for you to speak with the manager at the time of the purchase, or at least upon finding the "thing." I wonder why someone would be threatening to sue a food chain in order for them to keep up their health and hygiene standards.....who would be the actual winner here???!!!

I agree with part of one of the other answerers that you should have gone to the management. Why would you want someone else to eat those muffins, what if a mom gave it to her kid? I slipped in walmart by the fishtanks cause there was water on the floor, didn't fall and saw a guy in a tie w/a walkie talkie. told him what just happened that maybe some one needs to clean it up before they fall and sue. HE got on his hands and knees with paper towels. You didn't eat it, it didn't put you in the hospital, so the only case you have is bad muffins!

Call them into the board of Health. They will then go out and take a look..Hope they get a really picky peron too. I know this because i have worked in food for over 5 years.

Just eat it already or else throw it away and STFU. Then go sue your neighbor (for being ugly) or your neighbors dog (for barking too loud). Also consider suing your parents for raising a whiner.

Call the local health dept and they will likely be shut down.

You're a greedy loser looking for someone else to pay your bills.
It's idiots like you why our insurance is so high.
Get off it and make your own damn muffin.

Get a lawyer and have some facts. Go to local court and take it from there.
