Chipped My Tooth on Asda Peanut

myrnahaz

I know you don't really expect stones in your peanuts, but I suppose it's a bit of a risk when you're eating certain foods - there's no way they can be sure that everything has been removed (like bones in fish fingers, or slugs on lettuce). I once bit into a piece of shell in some chocolate brazils - thought my brain was going to vibrate out of my skull (no teeth chipped, though).

Quite a time consuming process, and does show their supplier does go to great lengths to make sure only peanuts get through...

Albeit clearly not sufficient lengths....

So, in excess to:

-Sieving to remove large foreign bodies
-Gravity Separation
-Stone seperator
-Permanent magnet
-Visual inspection
-Metal detection

How would you propose to move a peanut size stone from a selection of peanuts, assuming from the above list that this stone is equal in size, shape, density, and of a similar colour?

Absolutely no idea. But I'm not in the peanut business....

Pay the peanut inspectors £50 for each stone they find.

They would come to work with peanut shaped stones in their pocket and throw them in, so although they'd get paid for finding them, they would end up with even more in the system!!
