The simple pleasure of enjoying a bag of crisps has been forever ruined for one UK mum after she found a cooked spider inside of her packet of Walkers.
And if that weren't horrifying enough, Sabrina Hussain from Birmingham was already halfway through before she made the discovery.
The mum-of-two reacted how many of us would and ended up running to the toilet to be sick. Now she's seeking answers as to how the eight-legged critter made its way into the packet.

Speaking about the grisly incident, which unfolded on 28 July, she told Birmingham Live: "I’m still feeling really sick. I really don’t know what it is, it looks like a stripped spider that’s been cooked in with the crisps.
‘It looked like some kind of string attaching it to the crisp, it was dangling off it. I don’t want to touch it, it’s disgusting."
Sabrina went on to describe how it all started with a craving for a packet of Walkers' cheese and onion crisps.

"I was just craving some this morning so I went to the shop and bought some," she explained, shelling out £1 for the pack, unaware of the horrors that awaited her.
She continued: "I know it's really bad, this is probably karma for having crisps for breakfast.
"I was sat there, eating away and looking on TikTok, and then I picked up another crisp and just happened to look at it. I thought 'What on Earth is that?'

"I started throwing up, it made my physically sick. I came back to it after to see what it was and took a picture and put it on my social media to see if anybody could tell me what it was.
"People were saying the same thing - that it looked like a spider. I rang Walkers and they asked for the barcode number.
"I was hoping for an apology but the person I spoke to didn't seem that concerned about it. I haven't heard anything back yet.
"I keep looking at the crisp and gagging. I don't know if it's mind over matter but I've been sick three times already and I've got a belly ache. It's definitely put me off eating crisps for life."

Walkers has since responded to the claim, saying an investigation has been launched.
A spokesperson for the snack company said: "We’re sorry to hear that Sabrina has found something unexpected in her pack.
"We take all complaints very seriously and the safety and quality of our products are our top priorities.
