Solved! This does not seem right

Post image

In a piece of bread. Any idea what it could be? Looks like something a cat coughs up. Sorry if the image puts you off bread for a while :(

u/pitchdarklabs 8h ago edited 7h ago

Yeah looks like a j cloth or something.

edit: changing my answer to the sewn thread that they stich large bags of flour with, Alex.

u/Infinite_Campaign707 8h ago

Good eye. could have been a maintenance faux pas. These manufacturing plants are huge with huge vats of flour and dough. Anything is possible.

u/thedandytrucker 7h ago

Yeah, and working with job students because of the holidays...

u/Feather_fig 7h ago

The fibres do look like polyester rather than animal or human hair.

u/-Major-Arcana- 7h ago

Doctor did say I need more fibres in my diet. Think that's what he said anyway...

4

u/thedandytrucker 8h ago

Makes a lot of sense, because it looks like a mix of hair and plastic.

Guess we found that missing intern from the bread factory.

Horrible ad choice under your picture😭

u/LaBelleBetterave 8h ago

You’ve heard of microplastics ? Now get ready for macroplastic (it’s probably a piece of flour sack).

u/jayron32 8h ago

A plastic bag fell into some mechanism and ended up mixed in the dough.

u/NameBond 8h ago

Forbidden cheese 🧀 aka plastic

1

u/Own-Jeweler3169 8h ago

In the US they see plastic cheese as next to actual cheese!

3

u/Fit-Association4922 7h ago

There’s too much of it 😭

But don’t assume it all is, our Wisconsinites and Vermonters will put you right. (As part of the latter, I think our cheddar is fairly good)

2

u/Own-Jeweler3169 7h ago

It was more of a jab at the food quality, I am sure there is great cheese, just the radioactive shit that is fed to you guys every single day is appalling, nevermind though - FDA said it's all good!

2

u/Fit-Association4922 7h ago

It’s nasty, and I count it as more like a really unhealthy condiment! 😂

2

u/Own-Jeweler3169 7h ago

Lol like nutella, but for burgers, don't get me wrong I eat like shit but I fear if I lived in the US I would probably already be dead by now.

I would love to visit for the BBQs etc.

It just baffles me that that is acceptable and often preferred, same thing with cheezwiz etc., like why not just demand better quality cheese, which really isn't expensive.

Your sewers must be radioactive, lol.

u/grand_measter 8h ago

Looks like nylon rope

u/SeverelyFantasic 8h ago

My first thought as well 😂

u/_GrumbleCakes_ 8h ago

In addition to whatever that awful mess is, from the photo this also looks to pretty undercooked.

I could well be wrong.

2

u/unabashed_nuance 7h ago
  1. Nothing comes between me and my love of bread.

  2. Doesn’t look like a natural fiber. It is almost translucent when you zoom in on it. Some sort of man-made fiber. A shop cloth or maybe bag of some type got dumped into the mixture?

2

u/Feather_fig 7h ago

Looks like free bread for a year

If not for you then for a friend who is not put off after you having this experience

(Please contact the company regardless! Clearly they're doing something wrong in their protocol)

u/Sensual-Softs 8h ago

looks like nylon threads, im so sorry u have to see that on ur bread

u/_scorpio_rising_ 8h ago

u/ArgusTransus 8h ago

That’s not normal.

u/Lipopuu 8h ago

Are you certain?

2

u/MisterMindFog 1h ago

It looks like it belongs to those plastic weaved sacks. Rice and flour sometimes comes in them.

Looks like plastic

1

u/Wayward_Warrior67 8h ago

Agree it looks like some kind or plastic or charitably maybe rice noodles? Is it hard or does it break easily? Is there a smell to it?

1

u/PillowMonger 7h ago

what doesn't seem right was that you've finished more than half of that bread .. why'd you stop eating?

1

u/RecognitionRight1078 7h ago

Looks like strands of plastic hair,night have got into the flour during storage.Hope you didn't eat it.

1

u/Healthy_Fondant_8272 7h ago

That's bagging or whatever has been used to store the grain mixed in with the dough 🤢🤮

1

u/Practical_Emotion372 7h ago

Whatever it is, it calls for a sincere apology and compensation from the merchant.

u/ForwardFeed9606 8h ago

WHOLE GRAIN, even the burlap sack the grain came in went in that mf

u/Usual-Candidate7113 8h ago

Could be a case of Bacillus subtilis. But it's very rare
