Staple found in my ground meat at walmart

[Jesscalee08]

I bought a pack of hamburger meat from walmart sunday. Today I made hamburgers and when I took a bite out of my food I bit on something hard... Spit my food out and there was a industrial sized staple in it! Can I sue for this?

You have not won the lawsuit lottery this evening.

Try Megamillions or the Superbowl next time.

(You may, however, return the item and request a replacement. But since you ate most of it and there's no proof of where the errant stapler came from, I doubt they'll honor your request. Might not hurt to try, though)

Only if you like losing.

You can sue if you want. We live in a litigious society and anyone can sue anyone for anything. That is, however, no guarantee that you will WIN.

So you found a staple. Were you seriously injured? Do you have medical bills or evidence of the injury? If the answers are NO, then that is also going to be the answer about whether you can sue and win a substantial settlement.

You MIGHT be able to go to the store manager and file a complaint, but as Pro says, without the original packaging and receipt, you probably won't get anywhere. They MIGHT offer you a refund, or gift certificate, or free product. But you did NOT win the lawsuit lottery here.

Don't buy meat at WalMart. They don't have good meat, regardless of staples.

Staples doesn't have good meat, either.

That might depend on the kind of meat you're looking for.

Y'know, I was almost gonna go there.

Almost.

Ah, you took the high road, while I went to the dark side. (I so rarely do that!)

It's only because it's December.

I have to be good this month. Not even a rolly-eye!

How uncanny. Earlier this evening, I found a Walmart in the staples I bought from Meat. I already spoke to an attorney who not only told me I am ruggedly handsome, but that I can sue. (I love mirrors). So do not despair OP!
