My hubby has just started on a packet of Tescos crisps and said they tasted funny. At the bottom of the packet there is a big piece of wood that looks cooked around the edges.
I tasted a crisp and they taste of wood and the whole packet smells of wood. This is not on! What shall I do take the crisps back to tescos or send them off somewhere. If so where?

Write to Tesco's head office and threaten them that you will be contacting your solicitor ( what if small children were involved?!!!).
After this,I would definitely report the matter to "Which" and Trading standards.

You must return this packet to the manufacturer whose address will be on the packet, most food manufacturing plants these days try to have a wood free enviroment, including things like staples, glass etc. It will be investigated by the manufacturer and the least you will get is a letter of apology and possible some tesco vouchers. If the wood has been fried it would have entered the processing proceedure quite early on.

There should be some contact information on the package. Do not throw away the package. When you contact the company, give them details on the package and where you purchased it.
I recently had a pointed bone stick into my gum from a frozen chicken dinner that contained 'boneless' chicken filets. I contacted the company onLine. They called me back, got all of the detail, and sent me a bunch of coupons for free meals. I explained I was not interested in a law suit, just wanted them to be aware of flaws in their quality control.

Write to The Sun, include a photo of your husband choking on the piece of wood. Demand compensation from Tesco for the death of your husband.

It should say on the back of the packet where to send them to, don't forget to put in the piece of wood and a letter of disgust.
I did this once and got a box of monster munch.
Good luck

Send them back to the address that should be on the packet, if not take them back to the store. Make a big deal of it if you have to, you're entitled to some sort of compensation

I fairly like "2 pints of lager". The worst one i've got ever seen became the only with Jasper Carrott in whilst he became married to an asian woman (Meera Syal i think of), they the two had youngsters from a prior marriage and he or she had a baby in a wheelchair who could no longer talk, yet who theory "out loud". OMG. It became stunning. It became as though somebody stated "precise, we are going to make a politically splendid sitcom. what aspects can we want?" distinctive races, mixed marriage, heavily disabled baby, happy-clappy attractiveness of all of it. None of this could have been undesirable if it hadn't been for the utter drivel of the communicate and humour. The strange project is that the two substantial characters are the two effective comics of their own precise, and that they got here at the same time and produced this load of b0ll0cks. of path, they only made one series (to this point as i'm conscious).

Ring the tesco helpline, go through the questionnaire with them and then follow their instructions. make sure you tell them you've taken lots of photos and that you're going to report them to food standard and you should get loads of vouchers!
