Just came across this. Man, that would really suck. Did they make the can with the mouse in it or what? Weird.

Me too. They should take the can back to the Monster bottling facility and demand jobs.

If a mouse had been in there since the thing was bottled, it would have been undrinkable from the moment he opened it. No way it was in there that long and he didn't notice.

EDIT: Just read the response from Monster, sounds like they have the same take, and the guy left it open for hours. A mouse could easily crawl into that can while it was open.

Never a mouse but I did find a cooked caterpillar on top of a pre-packed Quiche from a superstore here just before Xmas and returned it. I spotted it through the cellophane before opening and cooking it fortunately, yuck. I received a voucher and a letter subliminally asking that we should 'say no more' of this extra topping.

I found a cooked caterpillar wedged into a broccoli floret. I figured both the broccoli and the caterpillar must have been outdoors at some point and run across each other there.

As I remember the quiche was broccoli and something so that's probably what happened there. Here's another little 'uninvited guest'

So now you can shove a whole dead mouse from the tank, through the sealed pipes and filters, all the way into the can and it stays in one nice, presentable piece?

The things technology can do these days!

I call bs. How can a mouse climb into a can? How can a mouse be injected through a liquid dispenser into a can?

I call a hoax, and an attempt to defraud.

Maybe I could "find" a mouse in my can, too... I could use Tue money.
