Hair on your dinner plate...

I might have experienced a small piece of hair in my plate which falls off from my own head, i will take it out particularly. But there are no possibilities for insects or ants like that, because we have a clean environment and surroundings are very impressive as we clean our house daily. so, no insects have abandoned my house !!!

Hi dear, It has mixed feelings. As you said, it is a regular experience and many people must have been faced with the same issue, especially, in the case of piece of hair. Frankly speaking, in my experience, I would should on this issue and making some notice, I remove it out and continue eating (this is only if I am at home). Luckily, this is not happened in the last 3-4 years now. Sometimes, there may be some substance, hair like things which comes in sugar and all but such things also I have got it, but I realize that it is not hair. Also, small ants, are another thing, which I have seen in sugar at times. But I don’t mind small ants been seen in food. I have never seen the ants inside the food, but when I was small, I have experienced it with black coffee or black tea. My father was so particular that if he gets a piece of hair in his food, he never continued to eat the food for the time. He never takes different plates or continue with the same food. He just gets up and stop eating, may be at lunch time or dinner. As this was known to my mom, she was so particular to avoid such a situation. Still, it happened some times as there are girl children are at home. Also, if I get a long hair, I will not use the same plate food at any cost. Best regards, Thank-s

Of course you are very correct.We have faced this situation atleast once in our daily meal times.Hairs in our food should really be avoided.It doesn't do anything to enhance our eating experience at all.It is unhygienic and also too unappetizing.I have had hairs on my food plates many times and each time it really feels bad.But I have to finish my meal as I do not like wasting my food.Unless of course what I found in my food was not hair but some very bad things like insects.

hello dear bhai, Oh,yes it happens with hair,but very seldom. I am the one who prepares food,so i know how to be very careful. Hair can be tolerable,but with small insects,that's a NEVER! I am sure that never happens with foods that i prepare. have a good day dear bhai

I had experience on having hair in meals several times. My mother does the cooking and she is not wearing a net so that's explain why. I encounter a hair in a soup on canteen and they replace it not realizing that it may damaged their reputation.

Ewh.. not just once or twice but a lot of times that I found a long hair on my food from a different restaurants. I remember once when I was eating my food at one of my favourite restaurant with my fiance' and I was happily eating and talking to him at the same time when he told me to stop and not to eat the food. When I looked at the food on my spoon, I saw a long curly hair around the food, and I mean it was really long that half of it still curling around the plate and the food. I thought I was going to puke that time. I felt bad for returning it to the waiter and also complaint about it but what could I do. When they offered me a free replacement, I had to say no because I have completely lost my appetite Have a nice day

yeah, all of us have experienced such kind of annoyance. but different from you, i experienced this in restaurants rather than at home. my mom is extremely careful with this. when i discover hair or insects in the plate, i would ask the server to change it immediately. most servers have good manners and apologize to me, but some are quite rude. in such cases, i just refused to pay. i always believe in one thing, that is i pay for good service.

hi shibham, I hate this kind of think and i feel that how carelessly some made the dish. But when one day when i create some food for me and my wife and i don't know but i found two hair in my plate from that day and shibham you better understand my situation. Ha ha ha.

Yes, sometimes I experience it. I don't like it, but I don't want to waste the food, too. So usually I just pick up the hair from the plate and then throw it away. Then I will pretend nothing has happened and continue to my meal. I love China

Hello Shibham, To be very honest I just can’t tolerate all these things in my plate and I will be ready to tolerate my hunger than having the food with all these nonsense. Hair can be tolerate if it is on the plate and a small one, but if I get in between eating it is very much difficult for me to handle. I can’t eat then. Regarding the insects, spider is very dangerous one, its poison can spread to our body if it is in the food (if it falls when prepare food). All other insects are not dangerous but see the same in food is somewhat disgusting. Anyway I am happy that these things are not happening with me. I am very much careful while preparing food and even after the prepared food (kept as properly closed). I don’t have the habit of entering into the kitchen with open hair. I have been taught the same since my childhood’ if you are coming to the kitchen your hair should be properly tied’.(this is mother’s advise) I am following the same now also. I got special appreciation from my Mother-in-law when she was with us. She told that it is happening at home (village) as the ‘Well’ is opened one, hair may get in water and little distraction of attention can get the same in rice pot. I think all credit goes to my mother as she taught the discipline to me.

Hi shibham, I feel almost all of us have at one or the other time discovered such annoying objects in our food plates. And hair is quite common. Those lizards, cockroaches, and insects like them are not so often found unless the eating environment is unhygienic. Some people are too fussy about finding some foreign objects in the eating plate. As for me, I have never thrown away my plate only that there is a string of hair there. I just remove it or them and go on with my mission eating. It could happen and what happens is mostly accidental.

Finding hair in my food is not something I relish. I'm sure it is there by accident, but all the same, it is there. If I would see a hair on my plate, it would probably be the end of the meal for me. i would have to get something else to eat.

For me yes there is happened yesterday in the rice there is include hair when time to eat it is not good.

Yes, Yes, Yes, this happens so many times, i have long hair and i guess some times when i am cooking i must catch my hair too much when pushing it away and some must fall, although sometimes it can seem that the hair that is on my plate is not my colour, it also isn't my son's and so as nobody else lives in my home it seems a little strange. I do continue with my food although i obviously do throw the hair away, i wouldn't want to waste my food and all the time it took to cokk and prepare it but it does stick in my mind and i do not enjoy my food as much then. I really am curious as to where the hair really does come from, maybe i have ghosts in the house that want to play some form of trick on me, lol.

Good evening shibham, Hair on the head is the most wonderful and beautiful thing but hair on your food is disgusting. If I find a hair on my food I can not eat it anymore. I can't just take the hair off and continue eating it, just not in me. I have tried and I just gag on it. I went to a restaurant for breakfast one day, with my husband, and I was served over easy, runny eggs, the way I ordered them, but with a hair on them. I returned my plate and followed the waitress to the kitchen and watched her take the hair off and turn around to bring me the plate. I stopped her and said no way, I wanted a new order made. I couldn't eat the eggs knowing there was someones hair on it and how could she try to re-serve it to me. If I wanted the hair just taken off I would have taken it off myself and not returned it for another order. I talked nicely to her about it but she freaked on me so I talked to the manager and had a new order made and got my breakfast for free. I didn't want my breakfast for free, I just wanted my breakfast made over again without someone's hair in it. I can't eat my food once I find a hair in it. Cheers and TTYL my friend , Chris

My daughter and I both have long hair. We find hair everywhere. There was a notice on one of the sites that I frequent that said there was a recall on some Baby Formula because they had found cockroack debre in it. Ugh! And I had a cup of milk the other night and went to drink it and found a fly in it swimming around. I was totally grossed out.

i just throw it all away and have a new plate. we never know what the contains of the hair so i better buy another one

Hiya shibham, Quite a long time back I was eating a piece of wholemeal Bread and I found a piece of wood in it. Lucky for me I did not swallow it. Second time around I bought from the Bakery another piece of Wholemeal Bread and the same thing happened again. So this time I stopped buying the Bread from there as simple as that. With things like Lentils and Beans you also have to check there are no little stones or bits of gravel in them although they come in very clean Packets. I am usually quite careful with my Hair when in the Kitchen so as not to annoy anyone. It´s like you mentioned to your Mom she could have Guests and not realize that she might have to tie her hair back like I do sometimes in or wash hair and with towel wrapped around your Head when you are doing food it´s much safer. But things do happen though. Again I am careful even if I don´t wash my Hair at that moment I take precautions to keep it all free from that kind of happening.

Hiya shibs, I am having to be very careful with the lettuce now and other greens that come in plastic wrapping. I have put them all in warm water, Sea Salt and a few drops of Cider Vinegar and let them soak. Being in Christmas I think there is much more likely to find nasty things like you said. I have just washed some Grapes too ready for tonight and had left them to soak a little earlier on. There can be lots of little nasties to be found in common things like Lettuce. You just can´t know until you unwrap it and cut it into four halves and find it half rotten with those horrible creep crawlies inside. Happy New Year to you Shibs. Take care now.xxx

That is so gross I would definitely throw the entire food serving away because if it is found in one plate it is bound to be on another. I also have found things like that in fast food places and of course I get so grossed out I toss it in the trash and never go back to that place again. I have to say though I have never found any bugs in my food thank the Gods but I suppose there is a first time for everything I just hope it doesn't happen to me, lol.
