Woman finds grasshopper in canned spinach
Denver | August 01, 2008 12:01:13 AM IST
 

A Denver-area woman says that she opened a can of spinach and found half a dead grasshopper inside.

I just think it's very gross, Donna Labrador told the Denver Post. I will never eat another can of veggies again. Probably not spinach, anyway.

Labrador planned to saute the spinach in olive oil to make a late dinner Wednesday to share with her 3-year-old daughter, Isabella. But she said the grasshopper was such a disturbing find she skipped dinner Wednesday and breakfast Thursday morning.

She called the company that canned the spinach and got the promise of a mailer to send in the grasshopper for tests. She also hopes for a refund.

The grasshopper, wrapped up in toilet paper, was in her refrigerator. Labrador said that by Friday she might be hungry enough to resume eating -- although not canned vegetables.

Grasshoppers are eaten in many parts of the world, and experts say they can be an excellent source of protein.
