'Dog sh*t' ham
Found on Ananova on Monday, 30 January 2006
A Wakefield man lost his appetite when he found "dog sh*t" listed among the ingredients on a packet of ham.
Mick Woods, 34, examined another of the 300g containers and saw the same 'additive' listed on the label.
The dad-of-three added: "We spent 40 minutes laughing. But we haven't put any in the kids' sandwiches and we had something else for our tea."
Manufacturer H R Hargreaves & Son said it axed an employee over the labeling prank and was trying to recall the ham.
A spokesman for the Manchester firm said: "We can't have people fooling about with food products. A number of packs are affected. We're trying to find out what shops they're in."
That employee was planning his exit pretty well.
