    Well depending on transportation time, packing conditions, etc. The spider may have hatched in the bag rather than crawled into it.
    I will never buy bagged hot dog buns again *shudder* This just gives me the willies. I have a paraletic fear of spiders.

    And I will never think of "smoke on the water" in the same way again.

      Folks, we're getting a bit silly here. What likely happened was the spider dropped from the celing in the packaging plant at just the right (wrong?) point in the process to land on the buns just before the the machine sealed the package. Due to most breads being perishable, and delivered fairly quickly to the stores, the spider was still alive. Perhaps a bit ookie if you have a spider aversion, but nothing sinister, or particularly negligent on the part of the supplier. Just a wierd fluke, unless this supplier has a serious history of hitchhikers in their product.

        I remember when I was really young maybe 6 or 7 I went to the corner store with one of my older sisters. We got a few things including a bag of sugar. When we got home I opened it up and saw a bunch of little black things popping up and down to the surface and the sugar was moving. I showed my sister and it ended up being infested with ants. I remember just being dumbfounded and wondering wtf and thinking no way. I didn't want to believe it was actually ants but once she started shaking the bag around it was very apparent.

        I was little so and it was the first time I encountered tainted food items like that before. We promptly returned that bag of sugar and got a refund. I think we ended up going to a different store for the sugar I don't remember that part.

          Found a weevil in my brand-new bag of expensive white wheat flour the other day. I didn't return it because I know the bug came from my cupboard. Fished him out and refrigerated the rest (so if there are eggs they don't hatch). I figure any germs are gonna die in my 400 degree oven. And I let spiders live. They eat other bugs.

            did you hear about the snake in a packet of Doritos?? It was either the snake itself or a snake skin - nyways, it had fallen into the fryer and it was cooked through 3 chips!! The guy lifted out a chip and out came 2 others attached with delightful snake. Mmm. Yummy.

              Sounds about as appealing as the breaded chicken head that appeared in a box of Chicken McNuggets, a few years back...

                  I once had a spider baked into a pizza.

                    Anyone else want hot dogs?
                    Actually, I kinda do, now.

                    I hate spiders.
