I had dinner at the Mexican restaurant again. Got it to go. I got a burrito and a pop. After I had eaten and drank my pop I took the lid off the pop and was chewing on some ice. that's when I noticed something at the bottom of the cup. I reached in and pulled it out. I placed the object on my scanner (next to a penny for scale) and took this picture. What do you think? Ground beef or booger?

Ewwww...

I wonder if your attachment will be approved.
You know you can host your pic at a site like photobucket and then link it. Ofcourse people like me surfing with a filter won't be able to see it. I can get to and see Zoto though.
 
Gee, thanks for leaving that for me to approve before breakfast. If you're going to keep eating at places like that, you better check if you're up-to-date on all your shots!

that is pretty sick. I don t know how clean is the mexican restaurant.
 
Looks like one of those earthworm poos you see.
 
Did you do a solubility and/or melting point determination on it? Or maybe something with two liter bottles and a blow torch (that was you wasn't it)? Was it a dark, cola-type beverage? I'm thinking evaporation and encrustation of the soda lines/delivery system finally let go and you were the lucky recipient.

That's a definite possibility. I've cleaned soda systems plenty of times and encountered some very foul, funky, gunky stuff. Does it seem like syrup -- or like it was syrup in a former life?
 
Could even be part of a blown seal or something. (And no Eskimo jokes.)
 
It looks like someone passed a kidney stone in your soda.

Looks more like someone in the kitchen forgot to wash their hands after using the restroom.
:redface:

I would hope that even the most incompetent individuals would be more accurate than to get a glob THAT big on them. I'm leaning towards soda residue.

I don't have to worry about that right? I got them both when I was a child and can't catch them again.
