Ouch! Have you ever bitten into something and gotten more than you expected? Well, this is exactly what happened to actor Paul Ford, 33, when he bit into a bag of Walkers prawn cocktail Quavers.
On July 8, Paul was tucking into his snack when he suddenly tasted blood in his mouth. Looking down at what he had just bitten into, he saw a piece of metal instead of a tasty snack. As a result, the actor has been left needing expensive dental work - and lost out on a day's work that would have earned him £1,500.
Paul admitted: "I was watching Netflix and eating a bag of Walkers prawn cocktail Quavers, and I bit into a piece of metal snapping my front tooth. I looked in the mirror and thought 'Oh no'". Now, he will have to get a denture inserted where the tooth used to be, but he is going to be out of work until that is completed.
Paul said it will cost him a fortune, saying: "It was £80 just for that appointment and I have to go back for four more. I was supposed to be filming for Channel 5 the next day, a film called 'Hard Work Pays Off', but I had to call them to say I couldn't come in. I lost £1,500 for a day's work."
Paul is hoping for some compensation from Walkers, saying: "I would like them to pay for the denture, or at least give me some compensation, as I'm not going to be able to work until it's fixed. I've got a feeling they'll just end up sending me a multipack of crisps."
A Walkers spokesperson said: "We're sorry to hear about Paul's experience. The safety of our consumers is always our number one concern, and we take any issue like this very seriously. We have asked Paul to send the product and object to us so we can conduct a full investigation."
Paul's unfortunate experience is a reminder to always be careful when eating snacks. Hopefully, Walkers will take the necessary steps to resolve the issue and give Paul some form of compensation for his trouble.
