Eeww! Mother and son find human tooth in a packet of prawn crackers

Remember the story where a man reportedly found a rotten tooth in his plate of mee goreng?

Well, a mother and her son from Sandakan made the same discovery – in a packet of prawn crackers.

According to a report from Metro Ahad, as translated by The Star Online, 36-year-old Siti Rahmah Basir had earlier bought two packets of crackers from a local supermarket.

Her husband reportedly opened a packet and complained that he had bitten on something hard, but he thought nothing of it at that moment.

The next day, her 10-year-old son opened the other packet and halfway through, much to his disgust, he found a human tooth in the packet.

“I didn’t believe it at first but when I took a closer look, it was indeed a tooth,” Siti Rahmah was quoted as saying.

The discovery proved too much for Siti Rahmah and her son as they reportedly threw up right after that.

Hey, maybe that’s what makes ’em crackers so addictive in the first place?
