Broken glass in sausage

Norway's dominant meat production cooperative Gilde goes from scandal to scandal.

Ten-year-old Joakim Karlsen bit into a two-centimeter long shard of glass while having smoked sausage from Gilde for dinner.
"My mouth started bleeding," Joakim told. The youngster says that Gilde sausages are not on his menu any more, especially at the school barbecue coming up.
Gilde instructed her to send in the sausage, packaging and piece of glass, but what angered her the most was the lack of an apology, and the impression that this was a mundane occurrence.
"Now that we were just starting to get over the E. coli (scandal), this happens. Think if a small child had eaten this sausage,"his mother said.
