Related: About this forumCompany Caught Selling Re-Used Cooking Oil - Taiwan

One day, as I was eating some of that blueberry jam in my oatmeal, I bit on something hard, and found that I had bitten on a black chunk of... something. Yuck!

OMG, that's some scary shit! I can't understand why anyone would eat that garbage. Literally.
