Man claims he found a rodent inside Diet Pepsi can

. . . The Food and Drug Administration is testing a Diet Pepsi can that a central Florida man claims had the remains of a possible rodent inside. Fred Denegri of Ormond Beach took a few sips from the can on July 23, only later to discover what was inside. He said the rodent was big enough that it wouldn't come out of the can.

Pepsi officials said Wednesday they traced the can back to the manufacturing plant in Orlando and didn't find anything wrong with the company's quality controls and soda sampling. Spokesman Jeff Dahncke said it's unlikely that something like this could happen during production.

Denegri called poison control after the discovery, but he didn't become sick. The 55-year-old says he's a Pepsi fan and will keep drinking it. . .

I'm remembering the scam in 'Strange Brew" where they raised a mouse in a beer bottle to try and get some 'free beers, eh !'

You don't even want to visit the standards regarding the permissible levels of filth that is legally allowed in our food.

Diet Pepsi is disgusting, and that's not taking into consideration the dead rodent.

Bet this guy switches to buying in bottles now.

Did he also find a finger in his chili?

Maybe they make submersible glue traps that can withstand carbonation?
Shame to waste all that fine beverage.

Someone tried to scam Pepsi or Coke before saying they found something in one of the cans, then they showed how they fill the cans. They came upside down onto the filler so nothing could possibly fall in them.

Question is was the rat already dead or did the Pepsi kill it? I suspect the latter.

Years ago found a shiny new roofing nail in my salad at an upscale steak house in Midland, TX (yes there are some). I showed it to the manager who immediately offered to give me my meal at no cost. Someone else was buying so I told him "No, just find out where the rest of the nails are".
