I saw this earlier on Boston.com. No tuna for a while. Oh man…
BUMBLE TEE Tuna is my favorite. They add something special to their recipe.

Hi Joey, Funny story about Bumble Bee. About 10 years ago my wife was eating a tuna salad sandwich made of Bumble Bee packed in water when she felt something stab into the roof of her mouth. Upon further investigation, mouse femur. NASTY. Haven’t purchased any kind of canned tuna since.
OMG, gross!
Yuck.
