Woman claims she found rodent in iced tea can

A Virginia woman claims she found a rodent inside of a can of Lipton Sparkling Peach Iced Tea. She has the can to prove it. PepsiCo and the Virginia Department of Agriculture confirm they are on the case.



"I was just sick," said Amanda Robertson. "I almost threw up looking at it. I couldn't believe it." Robertson says she actually drank a portion of the tea before noticing something inside.

The Emporia woman claims doctors now say she has a painful case of acute food poisoning. "I'm just scared," said Robertson. "My biggest fear is not being with my kids and my husband. If it had some disease...that could hurt me, and I don't want that to happen to anybody else."



Amanda says she bought the iced tea at a Walmart in Christianburg. PepsiCo Spokeswoman Gina Anderson says an investigation is taking place. Elaine Lidholm with Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services says they plan to launch their own investigation. She also stresses this is extremely rare.

Nobody cares about the mouse, another of your god's making, which was not put here by your god to be harmed, hurt or tortured.
The meek shall inherit the earth, who do you think your god was talking about ?
THE MEEK, idiot, that is the mice, not the shy and reluctant humans !
Treasure ALL god's creatures and you may get to go your god's heaven.
I have spoken.
