[quote]Cadbury has vowed to launch an investigation after a picture of a wasp embedded into one of its chocolate bars was posted on Twitter.
Jake Keating, from Liverpool, tweeted the image after he found the insect lodged inside a bar of Dairy Milk.
He used Twitter to contact Cadbury via their official account (@CadburyUK), saying: "As if I have just found a WASP in my chocolate!!! What are you gonna do about this!?!"
The company swiftly responded on the social networking website, replying:"We'd love to reply with a pun, but we want you to know how seriously we're taking this, so we won't,"[/quote]
Mmm, protein!
man that little bugger is MASHED in there too.
Hopefully this investigation will bring those responsible their just desserts.
Imagine not noticing and eating it
Doesn't the FDA allow food companies like 4 bug eggs or something like that in a batch.
Ewwwww. I still can't wait to get cadbury eggs for Easter though. Best thing ever.
Imagine opening a pack and having bees fly all over you.
Fat Liberation terrorists.
I hope they send him a free chocolate bar to replace the ruined one he bought.
At least it's chocolate, so the thing is frozen in place and can't really contaminate the entire bar. It's better than getting a dead wasp floating in your soup, for example.

i dunno know whether they were saying this as a joke or not but i don't get what makes people like that. do they not realise that cadbury makes and sells millions of chocolate bars a day? there's bound to be some random freak incident like this. i'd laugh it up and enjoy my few hours of social media fame and then leave it at that
too bad, you were only moments away from winning this button as a prize:

I would make sure I get free chocolates for life or something. The companies value their reputation a lot so you can negotiate into getting something good.
What kind of monster would do this?
the bee mafia strikes again
I'll admit, changing the shape, flavour, texture and ingredients of the classic Dairy Milk bar hasn't been the best way for Kraft to treat a popular brand, but I'd rather have their stupid jelly beans and popping candy than wasps.
That means it's fresh!

what are you talking about jelly popping candy shells is the greatest

...i'm not fat!
Yeah, the Marvellous Creations are rather special. Not quite Willy Wonka, but putting jelly beans, candy shells and motherfucking popping candy into a chocolate bar, you know it's rather magical.
Regardless, I saw this bit earlier, and if you're getting wasps in your chocolate bars, you know that someone slipped up somewhere, even if things are normally ship-shape. But at least it wasn't a rat in a loaf of bread, or a horse in a beef lasagna.
I've eaten flies before, it's not that bad :))

And then you remember they shrunk them.

They sell them all year round in the UK, I wonder why they don't in America.

bugs are everywhere, it is absolutely zero surprise that something that is mass produced is eventually gonna get something in it. especially an insect that can fly, and contaminate the product at practically any point in the procedure.
if it was something more substantial like a mouse or a worm etc that would be an obvious reason to tweak out, but a bee? whatever man
if only this person was allergic tho, free chocolate for life
Only the crumbliest
Flaaaaaakiest vespid
Tastes like vespids never tasted before

I have my own business making custom tarps and this is what I found smooshed in a roll of vinyl!
Even came with dried blood! I hope I don't get Korean AIDS from handling it :P.

First thing I thought of:

Hopefully this incident doesn't sting their reputation too badly.
It probably just flew in there right as the machine wrapped that candy bar or something
