We have had cases in the U.S. of consumers putting disgusting foreign objects into food in hope of shaking down the manufacturer. I'm pretty sure there was a high profile case involving the Wendy's hamburger chain a few years ago in which a customer "found" a fingertip in a bowl of chili.

There is an old Argentinean joke, that I mostly forgot and it will lost some punch with my translation, but it went something like this

- When an English person founds a fly in their soup at the restaurant, they will immediately and politely ask the server for a new serving.
- When an American person founds it, they will immediately start shouting at the server for a new serving.
- When an Italian founds it, they will drink half the soup and then start shouting for a new serving
- The Argentinean always carry a fly in their pocket, then drink half the soup, puts the fly on it and starts shouting at the server for a new serving.
