Foreign Objects In Tin Tobacco

[kschatey]

Decided to start this thread just to see how common this experience is. So post your foreign objects here.

Hair? Probably binder twine...

That’s some weird shit. Lucky it’s in your tobacco and not your food.

You've probably eaten mouse poop -- and the federal government is just fine with that. It's also fine with mold, rat hairs and insect legs.

A third of a pinky finger. Down to the first knuckle. Dried out and blackened.

it happens, i just toss the foreign bits and smoke away, fire cleanses all.

Guess I should clarify this was a 2oz tin that was jarred after open. That’s a great point about bulk @Franco Pipenbeans.

Only bits I've found in a tin that I didn't want was some veins (aka "stems", which are huge, and very seldom found in pipe tobacco.)

I found an entire intact wolf spider (dead of coarse) in a can of Grizzly chewing tobacco once. Scared the life out of me. It was right on top, first thing I saw when I opened the can.

I can see how that would pass inspection. I've spilled bits of grizzly and when finding it latter had a moment of is that dip or is that a smooshed spider?

I found a crazy long black hair in a pouch of Gauloises rolling tobacco once. It had somehow gotten wrapped immeshed into the whole block of shag. Basically when I tried to roll my first cig the whole lot came out.
