Very misleadingly worded headline. So as far I understand, empty cans were shipped from Germany to be filled in Northern Ireland, and on their way there the shipment had been compromised and nobody noticed that until they were going through the machinery
[QUOTE=Omilinon;52025300]Used to drink a [I]shitton[/I] of soda back in high school. Transitioned by drinking sparkling water. Haven't drank a drop of soda for about 3 years now, and I seriously can't stand the stuff now.[/QUOTE] I managed to get off of it for a while because marching band is some seriously dehydrating shit, but once I got past the "ow wtf coke burns now" I accidentally got back on the shit. I'm gonna finish the rest of this bottle I've got and stop after that.
[QUOTE=Sobek-;52026047]How are these cans transported? I'm wondering how some immigrant could get these cans out, shit in them, and then somehow replace them in such a way that no one would notice someone had been in there messing with the cargo, or even SMELL it... I'm just trying to picture how they transport these cans.[/QUOTE] Highly unlikely there was a manual inspection procedure for incoming raw materials. It's probably just taken off the truck with a forklift and loaded straight into the machinery to be used. Maybe a few cans from the load would be inspected as a batch QA, but that's probably it.

Theyre not boxed our housed in anything, theyre just stacked on top each other like 10ft high. Thats at least how it is in the US.
