A short time ago I purchased a jar of Planters Peanuts (Kraft). In throwing a half handful of them in my mouth I bit down to find something hard in the peanuts I was eating, so I spit them out. In looking at the rest of the peanuts in my hand I found what appears to be a part of a snake vertebre in with the peanuts which caused me to start throwing up and made me sick for a few days. The flavor of peanuts was dry roasted and I found that the piece of snake vertebre to be dry roasted exactly like the peanuts they came in. I've not searched through the jar to see if there are more pieces of snake vertebre as there were in my hand and mouth (as if I'm not grossed out enough already) but I wouldn't be suprised if there were more pieces since there were two already. I have saved all of the evidence (besides the mouthful of peanuts and foreign object I spit in the trash) so I have one piece of the snake vertebre (I have pictures....probably about a 1/2 inch section of vertebre). Please let me know if this is something I might be able to gain a settlement from. I'm sure that Kraft and Planters wouldn't be in a very good situation if this information about their peanuts went to the media. Also, it's not necessarily the vertebre that scares me as much as what happened to the rest of the snake (or animal). I'm wondering if lab tests will show that the rest of the snake the vertebre came from is somehow mixed in with the peanuts but its pretty fing disgusting and I believe I am entitled to some form of retribution. Any advice? Any attorneys interested in negotiating a settlement with Kraft and recieving a percentage? Not sure where I could take this but I would assume this to be a good situation for me and an attorney and a bad situation for Kraft!
