Doesn't mean it should not have it's own thread......

This article has a link with a video of the maggots....quite disgusting.

So disgusted and ready to vomit that she was happy to seemingly calmly take a video of said packet!

QF need to look into the supplier for sure and also obviously need to increase spot quality control checks, however her turning down the compensation was a bit strange. Did she really feel that much anguish that she needs a free flight?

Maggots aren't going to kill anyone. I bet many of us have eaten rotten fruit etc at some time in our lives.

Whilst AJ needs to go, this story really is taking the .....

Were their's the only packets on the flight "seething with maggots"?

Seems strange that they should get 3 all the same and no-one else was complaining.

... And please, just who is this person "Monday" ... shouldn't she be telling Qantas? (An Australian woman told Monday)

Qantas shoudl have charged her for the added protein
 

Seriously, many years ago I worked for a health food distributer. we had apricot museli bars manufacutured for us. When ther bars were sent to Asia and not stored in a cool place the eggs hatched and the bars were seething with maggots.

I think the problem is that the wheat was not irradiated properly to kill the larvae and eggs.

Take a powerfiul mioscroscope and look at whats in museli, like egss and bits and pieces.

Take a microscope and see what is crawling around in your eyebrows CREATURES
