She&#8217;s not the only one who&#8217;s found a live critter in one of their salads!!!  About 2 years ago I bought a package of their Asian salad at Sam&#8217;s which I had done many times before.  Well, this time I was in for a surprise.  I was eating the salad and thought something had fallen on my bare knee sticking out from my shorts.  YUP,  something sure did!!  Thinking it was just a piece of lettuce I&#8217;d dropped I looked down expecting to just pick it up to throw it away BUT it was a little snail (no shell kind).  And it was definitely still alive.   I love animals and we have all kinds of snails here in Central FL so I didn&#8217;t scream but sat there looking at it crawling on my finger as I could hardly believe what I was seeing. I even took pictures of it so I could send them to Taylor Farms.  I took the salad and snail back to SAM&#8217;S and got my money back.  I don&#8217;t know what they did with the snail as I really didn&#8217;t want it for a PET!!  And, Taylor Farms also sent me a $5 gift certificate so that must be what they do when someone finds live critters in their salads!!  I think they need to inspect their produce a little closer before sealing it inside a bag!!  I couldn&#8217;t find the pictures or I would have sent them to the group.</p></div><div class="comment-meta comment-footer"> <span class="comment-reply"><a rel='nofollow' class='comment-reply-link' href='http://cutetropolis.com/2017/08/30/links-hurricane-hating-hitchhiking-hawk-hastily-hails-huston-hack/?replytocom=64683#respond' onclick='return addComment.moveForm( "div-comment-64683", "64683", "respond", "44868" )' aria-label='Reply to Flowerfanatic'>Reply</a></span></div></article></li><li id="comment-64684" class="comment byuser comment-author-mbrailergmail-com bypostauthor odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1 parent"><article id="div-comment-64684" class="comment-body"><div class="comment-meta"> <img alt='' src='http://2.gravatar.com/avatar/5b0077a9a9660137907c595fc9efee2a?s=40&#038;d=monsterid&#038;r=g' srcset='http://2.gravatar.com/avatar/5b0077a9a9660137907c595fc9efee2a?s=80&#038;d=monsterid&#038;r=g 2x' class='avatar avatar-40 photo' height='40' width='40' /> <strong class="comment-author"><cite class="fn"><a href='http://cutetropolis.com' rel='external nofollow' class='url'>Not That Mike The Other Mike</a></cite></strong> <span class="comment-date">August 30, 2017 / 11:07 am</span></div><div class="comment-content"><p>Eep!
