An Auckland man has made a dangerous discovery in his pot of supermarket noodles.
On Wednesday night Andrew (who declined to give his surname) was ready to tuck into a pot of Trident hot and spicy noodles when he found a large piece of glass sitting among his dinner.
Andrew told the Herald he was lucky not to have swallowed the dangerous intruding object.
"I tapped my fork on it and it made a metallic glass sound. I took it out and had a look and it was a piece of glass tube.
"You usually just wrap the noodles around your fork and chuck it in your mouth, it's not a delicate procedure. It could have been so easy to swallow that thing.
