Ya know, this one time I found a whole stick of spearamint gum in my burrito.
I about BLEW a gasket. Ok, I did blow a gasket.
I freaked. I think I may have even cried.
Cried because....I was hungry! DUH And we were already a good ways away from the taco bell.
GRRRR!
Another time, I found a hair on the same plate as my salad.
CHECK, please!
But I can honestly say that I have NEVER found anything that resembled this in my Capri Sun. . . .
Capri Sun as in those yummy (yes, I said YUMMY but ONLY YUMMY when mold or JUNK is not floating around) little fruit juices. Are there real fruits in there? I'm not sure but I do know that there is sugar and I love sugar!
Anyhoo, I may have not found anything like the above but someone else did.
Yeah, Can you imagine?
uhhh EWWW!
Who's the lucky MOLD/MONSTER/OOGLY BOOGLY/WHATHEHECKISIT owner now?
Melissa Wiegand Brown found this WHATCHAMACALLIT in her capri sun pouch.
Now before you go all "NOT ANOTHER ONE!" on us let me explain that Melissa stated here that she was NOT looking to sue Kraft. She was simply wanting them to recall these particular capri sun products (the icky ones). I'm guessing Kraft doesn't think this is THAT serious because they declined the recall attempt.
Kraft did respond with this on their facebook page :
“We recently received word from a consumer about an issue with a Capri Sun pouch. We understand that some of you are concerned. Now that we’ve tested the material, we’ve confirmed it was mold. While unpleasant, it is not a safety issue. If this had been a safety issue, Kraft Foods certainly would have taken the necessary steps, including issuing a recall.
As a general food safety tip, please remember that because Capri Sun beverages don’t have preservatives, a leaky pouch can cause the beverage to spoil and discarding it is the right action to take.”

What are your thoughts (besides EWW!)?
Thirsty?
P to the S: The Capri Sun Mold/ Whateveryoucallit is pretty popular. He's even got his own facebook page.
P to the P to the S: If you do a search for "mold in juice" you will see that this sort of thing is pretty common in the juices without preservatives. Here's one of the articles found via a blog reader (Thanks Callie!) Look What I found in my Apple Juice
