Another incident of strange findings in food. 49-year old Kent Weisenberg was just trying to have a little party snack at his housewarming party, but when he threw some Planters dry-roasted peanuts in his mouth he discovered an extra surprise, the pelvis of a rat. The crunch broke his tooth (as well as his appetite). He did some root damage and cracked his tooth in half, costing him $15,000 in dental bills.

Weisenberg is now suing Kraft (maker of Planters peanuts) for damages. He’s already done some homework, retaining a forensic lab to test the bone and determine that no bone was present at the time that the nuts were dry-roasted. Yet, the bone was coated in the same material as the nuts. Kraft responded by denying any wrongdoing.

When asked if he would think about eat peanuts again any time soon, Weisenberg said no way, “it gives you the willies.”

Look at the size of that bone. How did he not feel the thing in his hand or at least when he put the nuts in his mouth?

An Orlando, Florida mother is catching heat from DCF for “allowing” her 13-year-old son to grow into a 400 pound behemoth. Assuming that Josiah Lewis weighed 15 pounds at birth, his mother Brenda’s feeding habits resulted in weight gain of about 30 pounds per year. That’s crazy. If this trend continues, he’ll weigh a ton by age 33.

The problem is, authorities are questioning how long the poor kid will live. He has both diabetes and high blood pressure, conditions which doctors say are life-threatening to him. As such, the Department of Children and Families has the power to remove Josiah from his home. They’re thinking of doing just that.

The mother’s excuse: she doesn’t know how to control him. She claims that she can’t get her morbidly obese son to take his medications or to stop eating. “He didn’t come with a manuscript or a guide,” says the mom. “I (have) just been working my way through.” Oh, you mean your kid didn’t come with an instruction manual such as “Motherhood for Dummies?” Where’d you get him, eBay? Get real lady.

Overweight Teen - 400 pound teenager Josiah Lewis

Is this a case of Munchausen by Proxy? Should Josiah be removed from his home, at least temporarily, so that he can lose weight and get his health back in order?

Sylvia Tagle, a teacher in Miami Lakes, Florida, was found guilty of abuse after she was caught putting hot sauce in a student’s drink. Oh yeah, she was a special needs teacher.

Tagle was convicted of abuse after jurors determined that she gave the mix to an autistic student in order to teach him lesson. She tried to argue that it was her drink and that the kid took it from her desk without permission. Really teacher? That’s all you could come up with? Put 12 people in a room and chances are 8 are idiots, but you’re not even going to convince those 8 idiots that you like to drink soda with hot sauce in it. You’re the one with special needs…

Tagle was not found guilty for other charges of abuse, including allegations that she pulled the hair of some students and required other students to spend the day in soiled diapers.

Tagle’s attorney defended her by saying that she’s just a strict teacher who is dedicated to performing at her job as a teacher. Okay, he should be the one force fed her special brew. Tagle faces 5 years in prison.
